Storytime and Playtime at Southern

Bring your toddler or preschooler for a morning of stories, songs, and movement led by our librarians. The 25-minute guided program is designed for the youngest learners and their caregivers to enjoy together. After storytime wraps up, stick around for an hour of free playtime with plenty of toys provided by Carrboro Parks and Recreation—a great way to let little ones burn energy and explore. This program is completely free and drop-in friendly with no registration required. Just head to the first floor of the Drakeford Library Complex, where staff at the information desks can point you toward the right room. Remember that children need to stay with their adult supervisor throughout both activities. It's a low-pressure way to introduce your child to the library while connecting with other families in the community.
