About
Derbyshire County Council Libraries runs free story and rhyme sessions for babies and children up to age 5, with formats such as Story and Rhyme Time, Storytime, Bubbles and Babies and Sensory Baby Sessions. Parents can use the Library Story and Rhyme Times listing to see the current branch-by-branch options.
The recorded age range runs from birth to 5 years. Venues include Whaley Bridge, Tideswell, Swadlincote, Staveley, South Normanton, Shirebrook, Sandiacre, Ripley, New Mills and Newbold, so families can compare nearby libraries rather than one fixed venue.
Sessions are spread across Monday to Friday, with morning and afternoon slots such as 10:00, 10:30, 11:00, 14:00 and 14:15. The free format suits parents who want a regular low-commitment group for a baby or toddler.
