My Son Enjoying an Evening of Thomas! |
My youngest child is a Thomas and Friends fan through and through: he has Thomas clothing and pjs, Thomas books, Thomas trains and Thomas DVDs! For his third birthday party this year, he had a Thomas train cake and a Thomas-themed birthday party. For Halloween 2013, my son has asked to dress up in a Thomas costume too! Yes, Thomas and Friends has touched my son's heart and it is such a sweet stage in his life that I love being part of.
Now that my four other children are in school during the day, my youngest son and I have been enjoying lots of one-on-one time together. Each morning we enjoy the outdoors together and play at the playground, visit wildlife at the local pond, walk nature trails, and play Thomas trains together! I try to take my cue from my son and let him decide what he would like to do each day, and then make it special for him. It's easy to see that my son is savouring our one-on-one time together as much as I am.

A Typical Day With My Son |
Evenings are family time in my household most nights, starting with dinner, homework and bathtime. When the nightly chores are completed, we create crafts together or relax with a family-friendly film. During craft time, it's the perfect opportunity to chat and get caught up with the older kids' lives. Some of the crafts we have created recently include a pirate ship in a bottle, and the kids have worked for weeks already to create Halloween decorations (spiders, cobwebs, gravestones, little ghosts, and more)!
One of my favourite adages is "the family that plays together, stays together", and this would be a good label to describe my family! It takes some coordinating to get the 7 of us all together, but it's well worth it!
If you have a Thomas fan in your household, you'll be interested to know that Fisher-Price's Thomas & Friends has just come out with a brand new DVD and two great new Thomas toys--a great way to relax and interact with your little one! Read on to hear about the new Thomas DVD and toys!

ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment Kristen! Just to clarify, this is not a giveaway.
DeleteMy son LOVES Thomas! He watches it all the time on Netflix :)
ReplyDeleteWe were lucky enough to watching King of the Railways and my son loved the movie. He has even asked for it on DVD, so maybe I can knock that off his stocking stuffer list!
ReplyDeleteMy Nephew would love all of these! He loves Thomas The Train stuff!
ReplyDeleteMy nephew loves Thomas! We will definitely be getting him something Thomas related for Christmas. Glad to hear that you and your son are enjoying your one on one time together :) (Judy Cowan)
ReplyDeleteThat adventure castle looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is a huge fan of thomas right now.
ReplyDeleteWe've tried both of the toys and they are great. That adventure castle is really cool and I can see that it will be on a lot of Christmas shopping lists this year!
ReplyDeleteWhen DS4 was 2 it was all Thomas all the time! I am sure the kids would love to play with these new toys!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if my comment went through? The kids would love to see the new Thomas lines from FP. Especially DS4.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a railway track and it would keep many tiny members of my family very busy for a while! Thanks

Oh my goodness! My youngest would go crazy for all of this Thomas stuff!
ReplyDeleteAll three of my children were big fans of Thomas the Tank. (I am too) Now, I've got young nieces and nephews who are new fans - this is a great holiday gifting idea.
ReplyDeleteI loved watching Shining Time Station when I was a kid (which they don't have on tv anymore). I'll put Thomas on once in a while for my 6.5 month old son, and he seems to be interested in it for a period of time :)
