Gloucestershire Libraries

Gloucestershire Libraries runs free Rhyme Time sessions for babies and under-fives, alongside Story Seekers for 2 to 5 year-olds. Parents can use the library sessions by branch to choose a nearby venue and age fit.

Rhyme Time is listed at Northleach, Bishops Cleeve, Dursley, Nailsworth, Coleford, Newent, Cinderford, Lydney and Tewkesbury, while Story Seekers appears at Tewkesbury, Stroud and Cirencester. The county-wide pattern gives families a clear choice between baby-and-preschool music sessions and a slightly older story-led option.

That spread also makes it easy to keep the same format while changing the branch. Families can pick the local library that works well and still find a straightforward early-years session with a fixed weekday morning slot.
