“A told B and B told C…’I’ll meet you at the top of the coconut tree.’ ‘Whee!’ said D to E F G…’I’ll beat you to the top of the coconut tree!'”

I think I probably have all of Chicka Chicka Boom Boom memorized. It’s one of my kids’ favorite books! The sing-song rhythm is fun to read and repeat, plus the text helps kids learn their alphabet.

Child's Hands Playing in Sensory Bin

My kids like to listen to me read the book, of course, but they also like using their hands to learn, especially with sand in a fun sensory bin! Sensory bins are an awesome may for children to learn about their world and their senses in a hands-on way. They can help calm, focus, and engage a child…especially toddlers and preschoolers! (Just be sure the kiddos are past the stage of wanting to put everything in their mouth.)

Here’s a fun Chicka Chicka Boom Sensory Bin you can put together for use in your home or classroom.
