Stories and Songs

Stories and Songs returns to the Children's Library inside Central Library on Tuesday 3 November, and it's not just a one-off — it runs every Tuesday morning through the rest of the year. The sessions bring together stories, songs and rhymes for under-5s, and they're held in the Children's Library, which is tucked inside the main Central Library building at 555 Silbury Boulevard, Central Milton Keynes MK9 3HL.

It's a regular thing, so if you can't make the first one, there are plenty more to choose from. After 3 November, it continues on the 10th, 17th and 24th of November, then runs through December on the 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th, and finally on 5 January 2027. That's nine sessions in total, all on Tuesday mornings, so you can pick the dates that work for you rather than trying to fit them all in.

There's no booking needed, which makes it easy to just turn up when you can. It's also free, so you don't have to worry about tickets or paying in advance. The only thing to keep in mind is that parents and carers need to stay with their children throughout the session, so it's something you do together rather than a drop-off.

Each session runs from 10.45am to 11.15am, half an hour of stories, songs and rhymes for under-5s. With the dates spread across November, December and early January, it's a steady thing to keep in the diary for the next few months.
