Can I attend a meeting unannounced?

Good Morning, I live in Central PA with my wife and two sons. We are active members in a Presbyterian church and are very happy there. However, I recently learned of the Quaker approach to life and was intrigued at the idea of the meetings. I found a meeting house near us. Could we freely attend a meeting (without any prior approval or communication)? Also, my younger son is 20 months; would it be considered rude/inappropriate if he began making some noise during the silent portion of the meeting? He is normally well-behaved in church ... but he is still a 20-month-old who can certainly make noise.

Thank you for any information.
