Discovery Drop-In & Storytime

Bring your little ones to the Charlotte Brody Discovery Garden for a relaxed morning of stories and hands-on exploration. Two storytelling sessions run at 10:30 and 11:30 a.m., held in the Story Circle right in the garden. While the stories are happening, caregivers can also set up at the picnic tables nearby to try self-guided activities together with their children—there's flexibility to do both or focus on whichever works best for your family. This is a free drop-in program, so no need to sign up in advance. Just show up and enjoy! Note that while entry to the gardens is complimentary for this program, standard parking fees do apply. The program runs every Thursday morning through mid-November, giving families plenty of opportunities to visit. If you have questions before you go, the gardens team is happy to help at 919-668-1701 or GardensEducation@duke.edu.
