Thomas & Friends Train Set

 I remembered I bought this Thomas and Friends train set when lil prince was 1 year old from a warehouse sale for RM50.  Lil prince love the Thomas and Friends cartoon when he was young.  But whenever we took out this train set to play, he will remove the train from the track and let the train moves around the house.

At that time hubby wanted to give away the train set as he said that lil prince doesn't seems to know how to play the train set.  However, I disagreed and I kept the train set in the cupboard.

This train set has been sitting in the cupboard for almost 2 years ++ and last weekend, I took it out again.  I would like to give lil prince and this train set a second chance.  To my surprise, my lil boy was so excited with the train set and he was playing with it for 2 hours.  This time, he was able to keep the train on the track, no longer outside wondering around!
I realized that previously we might be too eager to let him play with this train set.  There are certain toys that we should wait till our kids mature or at least reach a certain age.

There was only one train in this set which is automatic and the other one (green colour) is a so called 'manual' train.  Lil prince put the green on in front and let the blue one pushed from behind.  Now he has two trains to play with!

As for me, I am very happy that I can finally put this train set to use!
