With Henry's recent love (and I do mean LOVE) of trains, I scoured the internet last week to find us a fun outing for today, so we checked out Choo Choo Bob's Train Store in St. Paul with Henry's buddy, Harrison.
So, obviously Choo Choo Bob's is a store where you can buy any train part you'll ever need I'm sure, but they also have about 6 large train track tables set up in the back where the kiddos can just play and play and play. It was fun, there were about 15 little boys there that were all just doin' their own thing, heads down, each pushing the trains along the tracks, very seriously too I might add, as you can see below.
Don't mind if I do have a snack out of your cup, Harrison, thank you very much! We worked on lots of "please's and thank you's" today, good sharing between both of the good little boys :)
And then in the front of the store, they had multiple trains going round and round on the tracks they had set up. Here's the big man, Bob, himself, getting this train back on it's tracks after somebody who shall remain nameless just may have stopped it on the tracks (it was just too tempting and he just couldn't contain himself, ok)!
Afterwards, we stopped for snacks at the coffee shop next door :)
Great play-date, we'd definitely go back to Choo Choo Bob's again!
Henry, my little Love Lump, I think it's time to ask your "Da-Deee!" to set up his old train set, and maybe you could even ask your Opa to build a city to go around it, just like he did when your Daddy was a little boy. How fun would that be!
