Library activities for babies and toddlers

We offer regular activity sessions for children aged 0 to 4 at Southwark libraries so that young children can: 

• have fun
• spend time with other children of a similar age
• develop their concentration, listening and comprehension, and fine motor skills

They are free and there’s no need to book. Space is limited, so arrive early.

What’s on

There are 3 kinds of sessions:

• Baby and toddler groups: free play, singing, storytelling and a simple craft activity, lasts between 45 and 90 minutes
• Rhymetime: singing, rhymes, rhythm and movement, lasts between 30 and 60 minutes
