Midlothian

Overview

Bookbug first came to Midlothian in 1999 and has since flourished, with many weekly sessions happening across the Midlothian Library Service.

Bookbug Baby and Toddlers bags are gifted by the Health Visitor at the child’s developmental check and MMR respectively. Contact your Bookbug Co-ordiator (details below) if you are yet to receive your Bookbug bag and collection can be arranged at your local library.

Bookbug Explorer bags are gifted at nursery when children are 3 years old. This is often gifted at celebratory Explorer parties held by your child’s nursery.

Bookbug’s Library Challenge

While at the Library why not join Bookbug's Library Challenge and be rewarded for reading all your favorite stories. For each book read your child will receive a sticker or stamp with 6 accumulating in a beautifully illustrated certificate.

Bookbug Sessions

All full time libraries in Midlothian hold regular free Bookbug sessions which children under four years of age can attend with their parent/carer to sing their favourite songs, their favourite rhymes and share a well loved story.

Bookbug sessions are run weekly in all libraries across Midlothian.
