Experience history through stories and hands-on activities! Join LancasterHistory as we introduce children to historic themes and read a book aloud. Then, stay for an activity or craft inspired by the day’s theme. This hands-on learning opportunity broadens historical knowledge while establishing basic museum literacy and critical thinking skills.

On April 27, children will learn more about President James Buchanan and celebrate his 228th birthday together with a Buchanan-themed story and craft time.

This program is designed for children between the ages of 4 and 9, but all children are welcome. Storytime is free for kids and accompanying adults, but reservations are required. To register, please click the “Buy Tickets” button or call (717) 392-4633. Registration helps LancasterHistory staff provide adequate space and supplies for all children interested in attending and participating in the craft. Please bring your tickets printed on paper or on a phone or internet-enabled device to allow for easy check-in.
