Hi my name is Nichole, I have a son who is 3 that has been in LOVE with Thomas since he was a baby, and I also have a daughter that LOVES Thomas just as much as him. They know by the shows on PBS what is on next and when Barney is on they always have to remind me that Thomas is on next and after Thomas its bed time. They have learned alot from Thomas, both of them know all the engines and even the ones I don't know because you don't see them as much. Its even funnier when the connect the dots game plays on the show because most of the time they can guess the engine before all the dots are near done. It is amazing how they do it!
