Play and Learn

9:30 AM - 10:00 AM

Children learn while they play! One of the latest trends in libraries is to provide a time of sensory play for young children. Exposing children to sensory play helps them develop and refine the use of their senses. Stimulating these senses helps children develop cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, physical, and creative skills. Join us each week Monday Morning at Mockingbird Branch for Play & Learn.
