The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania will present a series of train tales for children during a new, twice-monthly Story Time With the Educator program. Designed for children age 2 through prekindergarten and led by a museum educator, each story time will feature a reading of a children's book and a hands-on activity, craft, song or poem.

Story Time With the Educator is included in the regular museum admission and will be held on the first Tuesday of the month at 3:30 p.m. and repeated on the third Friday of each month at 10:30 a.m. Fall story times will be presented on Tuesday, Sept. 5; Friday, Sept. 15; Tuesday, Oct. 3; Friday, Oct. 20; Tuesday, Nov. 7; and Friday, Nov. 17. In September, the program will include a reading of "A Lucky Dog: Owney, U.S. Rail Mail Mascot" by Dirk Wales, with a craft activity of creating a mail bag.

Individuals must register on Eventbrite for Sensory Hours to participate in the Tuesday sessions. Registration is not required for the Friday sessions.
