Thomas and Friends

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 9 April 2008 in Transportation.

So Caleb has been in this Thomas and Friends craze,and last week,i actually splurged on 2 additions that can be added to his current thomas train tracks.When thomas goes past the windmill and Harold the Helicopter,the windmill and Harold's 'choppers' start turning,its so fun. Thomas really know how to make money by making parents like us buy their 'additions' bit by bit!

@bwee: ya windmill and harold sold together for $19.90. i may next invest in some 20-piece stuff that has got mountains and more tracks...ya i think our kids are very fortunate.I wonder if that is the reason why people say kids nowadays are spoilt and cant take hardship:)

Come over to my nephew's place. Sometimes I think he owns the Thomas the Train store, including T-shirts and mugs etc. haha. What to do - his grandma pampers him too much. Anyway, I don't know why kids are so addicted to it. I sure hope Jamie doesn't get hooked in future!! Great pics, btw!

Ahhh! the memories this brings back of when Josh used to play with his Thomas toys. A wonderful collage of Thomas and Caleb :) It's such a pity we don't live closer, I still have all Josh's Thomas and friends toys in the attic.

You should check out the videos on youtube where the kids have like tons and tons of the additions. Even Calvin was 'inspired' to buy the sets. We stopped buying cos Marcus would just refuse to let Thomas/ James/ Henry run on the rails. Got to wait till he's older and past the destroy-everything-i-see stage.
