Caregivers and their infants can enjoy this lapsit-style storytime program filled with fingerplays, stories, and songs focused on early literacy.

Baby Bookworms is a free, interactive lapsit storytime designed for infants and their caregivers at the East Regional Library in Durham. The session focuses on early language development through gentle songs, simple stories, and rhythmic fingerplays that you can easily replicate at home. This program is specifically tailored for newborns up to beginning walkers, making it a calm environment for babies who are not yet running around. It takes place in the dedicated Children's Programming Room, which helps contain the sound and provides a cozy space. Registration is not required, and parking at the regional branch is plentiful and free. Starting your week with an intentional activity like this helps establish a comforting routine. It is a low-pressure way to get out of the house, support your baby's development, and chat with other parents who are in the exact same sleep-deprived stage of life.
