Trains and castles

Isabelle and Aidan get a lot of use out of their train set. Here is Aidan, taking Henry the Green Engine over the bridge, while Isabelle helps Lady pull the milk tanker. Today's set up has been improved by the addition of a rather grand station or two in the form of a castle that Isabelle got for Christmas. She painted it (with Daddy's help) pink, orange and green.

It is lovely to listen in to their play (which is usually co-operative) and to watch as they learn to manipulate the tracks, trains and accessories and devise new layouts of their own.
