Sensory Bins: Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!
Family

Sensory Bins: Chicka Chicka Boom Boom! is a hands-on morning activity where young children can interact with story-themed sensory tables at the library. Kids will have the chance to sort letters, build their own miniature trees, and retell the classic story through tactile play. This free event is designed for toddlers and preschoolers who learn best through touch and exploration. It takes place in the Side 2 Meeting Room at the Stanford L. Warren Branch Library in Durham. Because sensory play can sometimes get a little messy, you may want to dress your child in play clothes and bring a pack of wipes for quick cleanup. If you are looking for a low-key, educational activity to break up your Thursday morning routine, this library program offers a structured yet relaxed environment. It is an easy way to connect with other local parents while your child practices letter recognition and fine motor skills.
