Holiday minature moments perfectly replicate our images of the holidays.... Lovers snuggling during a carriage ride through central park... mom taking a break from holiday shopping on the bench, while her child looks on with curiosity...
And curiosity is exactly what you need before your arrive at the Trains at NorthPark benefiting the Ronald McDonald House - especially if you have a train fanatic in your family. We couldn't help but lean in... and then back when a train dashed through. Noah was exceptionally happy this day - "choo-choo" is his favorite thing to say and do. Whether it's with a sippy cup, or VHS tape, he'll take an object and choo-choo it on tables, sofa arms, and walls - every where except the floor?
We were just so thrilled to be able to experience something so great with the kids, and at the same time support a great cause...
Many cities offer something similar - and we highly recommend the visit with loud choo-choos!
Do you have a childhood memory of playing with trains? I'd love to read about it...
Ohhhhhh, trains are the big thing around our house. Little "I" has one set up in his room. He loves it! Loves all about trains. We are also planning on visiting this huge train display (one of the largest in the nation- if I'm not wrong) this weekend. He'll love it! The weekend before last we went to see the two displays at the Ginter Botanical park. They have some wonderful displays- my favorite was the one surrounded by a fairy village!
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa! That's so great about your son's passion's for trains. I can relate! Would you mind sharing with me what kind of a train set he has? I was thinking about getting a set for Noah, but thought he might be too young? And appreciate when he's older.. what would you recommend?
ReplyDeleteThats awesome the boys already have their favorite types of transportation. Noah, Trains and Humzah, Trucks... he just needs to work on his T's. I remember having train sets, but now im not a fan of trains unless its those trains that are propelled by magnets they have in Germany.
