It is that time of year...Thomas the Tank is making stops across the country so that he can visit with his fans. :-) We have been taking the girls to Day Out with Thomas for the past three years, and each year it seems to get even better. We have tried tour stops in North Conway, NH and Essex, CT, but find the Essex, CT one to be more convenient travel wise.
While I will be sharing information and a giveaway for the Essex, CT Day Out With Thomas: The Celebration Tour 2015, which is April 18th, 25-26th and May 2-3rd, I also wanted to share the direct link to the Day Out With Thomas: The Celebration Tour 2015, so that you can find a stop on the tour in your area, as this is one family friendly day out not to be missed -- http://www.thomasandfriends.com/dowt.
Parents and kids will love spending the day with Thomas the Tank, as well as meeting Sir Topham Hatt, both who are available for keepsake photos. In addition to the fun 20-25 minute train ride with Thomas, fans of the show will also be able to stop and visit different stations set up at their selected venues, to play with train sets, color in fun Thomas and Friends coloring sheet, sing and dance along to music, get a Day Out with Thomas tattoo, or simply kick back and take in an episode or two of Thomas and Friends. In addition, many venues also have local talent on hand to entertain families, including clowns, magicians and more.
My girls saw the flyer for the Day Out With Thomas: The Celebration Tour 2015 when we took them to Essex at Christmas for the Polar Express. They made a point to point out the sign so that we could get tickets, and continue to remind me whenever they are watching Thomas on television.
