Building a Railway Track


Our home is currently having a bit of a makeover in preparation for Christmas.  Our tree will sit in the corner of the middle room in our house (the play area), and I needed to do some rearranging to make room for it.  So the boys room had some changes yesterday too.

The reading / music / dressup "nook"



The little blue table is in here too now, for puzzles etc.
Today I haven't been feeling too well, so Elijah and I (and Will!) spent some time playing on the floor in the boys room.  After some deliberating, it was decided we'd play trains.  

How to build a railway track in  5  easy steps............

1.  Dump everything onto the floor

2. Sit and have a little think about what to do next


3.  Choose an engine and some carriages for your train.  Build your track (winding under the bed of course, for added interest!)


4.  Drag the train over to the track

5.   Play!!!!!


Oh, and do some spontaneous experimenting with the repelling / attracting properties of magnets........... just to add to the learning experience........ :)
