We saw this event online over the summer and thought it would be a fun outing. We hesitated, thinking Oliver might enjoy it more in a year or so. Boy, are we glad we went as a family. Oliver's enthusiasm when he saw Thomas was priceless. His little body was overtaken with excitement as he jumped up and down shouting and running to get a closer look at the big Thomas engine.
And Aiden had so much fun too! He was consumed with the train ride. We sat in cars with windows open and Aiden loved sticking his head out enough to feel the breeze.
The whole event was more like a mini-festival. They had a rock-climbing wall, pictures with Thomas and Sir Topham Hatt, an imagination station (arts and craft), a mini-golf station, storytelling, and a gift shop with any Thomas thing you could want.
And a surprise to us, was the Thomas engine's face is created to talk. So, before he pulls away from the station, he says a few words. The kids were mesmerized (and some of the parents were too!).
What an eventful day!
