The Narberth library runs Wednesday and Friday morning story times that are perennial favorites among families with young children. Pennsylvania Academy of Ballet, one of the most serious ballet training programs on the Main Line, is based in Narberth — offering creative movement for toddlers through advanced classical training for teens. The Little Gym of Narberth provides gymnastics, movement, and dance classes for toddlers and young children.
Youth sports in Narberth are organized through Lower Merion Township's recreational leagues, with Narberth Park providing the primary outdoor play space for borough families. The Narberth Playground Association is an active volunteer organization that keeps playground and community events well-run.
