decided to have a Thomas The Tank Engine theme

Changing the theme of a baby's bedroom?
My son is moving to another bedroom, and to a different bed when he turns 16 months due to his little brother needing a cot after he grows out of the bassinet.

We have decided to have a Thomas The Tank Engine theme for his bedroom with a small Thomas toddler bed.

Currently he has Tigger from Pooh Bear all over the nursery. I am wondering, would it be bad to change the theme to Thomas for him, or keep up the Tigger act? Tigger items really stop selling for children over 1 so I thought maybe something he could grow up with might be better?

I have already been told that it is a bad idea from my in-laws as they want him to continue with Tigger, as they are in love with the theme.. What do you think?

==========================================

answer :

It really is nothing to do with your inlaws and all to do with your child's preferences. The fact is, by the time your little boy is three he will likely have turned into a boys boy, wanting Ben 10, Thomas and other boys themes - so you might as well decorate at this moment of transistion rather than wait a few years for more uproar.


----------------------------------------

I think that if you and your son want to switch to Thomas do so. I agree that Thomas is something that he can grow up with more. We are doing my son's new room in just a nautical/pirate theme :)

Thomas the Tank Engine Transformer

Thomas the Tank Engine Transformer



Or perhaps this toy is inspired by Voltron, rather than the Transformers. Either way, when the island’s railways are threatened, Thomas and his friends unite to form a devastating weapon. I don’t know who makes this toy, but it’s on sale at eBay in Singaporean currency.

Another question :


Does anyone know where to get Thomas the Tank Engine bedroom accessories cheap? (UK ONLY)?
I am revamping my 1 year old sons room with his favourite character in the hope he will want to sleep in his own bedroom at last! Im looking for bedding, curtains, lamp, chair, rug, wall stickers, etc. anyone know a good place to get things like this cheaply? Thanks, Claire

-----------------------------------------


Ebay. Charity shops. Carboot sales. Also see if there`s a freecycle online in your area. I`m in leeds west yorkshire. They give stuff away they don`t want. Go to freecycle leeds - check it out. Then see if you have one in your area. Someone who`s had a thomas bedroom might be doing it up and getting rid. Good luck.


well ebay and car boot are my favourite choices... LOL

My 5 year old loves it and it looks just like a train. Assembly was as simple as opening the box. It just unfolds and you place it over your twin bed, and instantly you have a Thomas the Train bed at a much more reasonable price then the Thomas Toddler bed. I would recommend this toy to all.

Thomas the Tank Engine Bed Topper

Thomas the Tank Engine Bed Topper

Now this is a bit of fun for all those little Thomas the Tank Engine fans out there. If you have trouble getting your kids into bed then this might do the trick. In fact you might find that you will have problems keeping them out of bed.

The Playhut Thomas the Tank Bed Topper fits over a standard size twin bed and the flaps on around the bottom of the bed can easily be lifted so you can access anything underneath the bed.

There is also a tunnel in the back of the tent that the kids can crawl through to get to the bed area and windows that tie off for the kids to play hideaway.

The bed topper is easy to put together and can be folded up flat for easy storage when not in use.

This is recommended for children over 3 years and up to 9 years.

Customer Review: Not worth the money
This bed topper is way too bg for evena twin bed it is way bigger than it looks in its picture. My son couldnt even sleep in the bed with it on he kept on saying he felt like it was going to fall on him. I tried using it as a play tent but it is really big it took up the play area.
Customer Review: Strange Fit
We got this to help our 4-year old grandson not be afraid to sleep in his own bed in his new room (new house). We got his 2 year old brother a Pixar "Cars" bed topper for Christmas as well. We were disappointed in the Thomas the Tank Engine Topper because it fits on top of the mattress instead of underneath. The Cars topper fits under the top mattress and is more secure as a result, in addition to the fact that you can put the child between the sheets, change the bed, etc. and not disturb the topper. The Thomas topper wabbles alot and has to be removed to change the bed. In addition, you have the child sleeping on the topper insted of on the sheets, as the sheets will not stay in place on the topper. Still, he does like sleeping in it and it accomplished our goal.

comments

Advantages: it's thomas, can be used with balls too

Disadvantages: its size

As you all probably know by now I am absolutely Thomas the Tank mad FOR my twin boys so when I seen this advertised on the Early Learning Centre website how could I resist? It didn't cross my mind at the time that I probably would have no room for it or it would be a five minute wonder. But to this day I don't regret buying it, despite the hefty size.

I bought it as a 1st Birthday Present for my twin boys, I was doing a little tea party and thought it would be brilliant fun for my boys and the 4 other boys who were joining them.

You can buy it instore or online at www.elc.co.uk and it costs at the moment £40, I bought it though when it was offer last year for just £25. It says its a paddling pool, which yes it can be used as a paddling pool but as my boys birthday is in November I thought it best to use it as a ball pool. Which of course resulted in my paying more money to provide some fun to this as I had to buy balls. The plastic balls don't come cheap either probably £5 for a bag of 100! Sounds alot, but it's not when you see the size of this pool. 3 Bags I've bought and you can still see the bottom of the pool!

It's not too easy to blow up either, I seriously advise against trying to blow it up by mouth and buying a cheap foot pump. That's what I did which was so much easier as your brain doesn't feel as if it's about to explode and it's alot quicker. I say cheap, but it was still extra money I had to spend, although I did only pay £5 for a small foot pump.

Each side of the pool as it's own hole to pump it up. Once blown up it is shaped like Thomas the Tank himself. With a roof over the back and big smiley Thomas face at the front. Fantastic for any Thomas fun, no many Thomas fan's actually. As I've said it is quite a big pool, and at my boys small tea party there were 6 kids sitting and playing in it comfortably with room to spare.

I love the pool as it did provide alot of fun, and still does, it has helped my boys learn to climb and just play silly for a bit, throwing themselves around the pool and just enjoying such a spacious and large toy which isn't your everyday thing. At the same time though it's not a practical pool, not easy to store. Once out of its box, which it comes flatpacked in it's very hard to fold it up as neat as what it was to store back in. It's also not easy to store if you are intending on leaving it up as it is rather big. Luckily I have a large spare room which is where I keep my boys bigger toys. They havn't used it in the summer yet as an actual pool but I'm sure they will love it just as much. One downside to mine was it did 'rip' easily. It wasn't played with roughly at all, and none of the kids had shoes on but the tiniest hole was formed on the 1 side which I have had to keep taping up to prevent the air from coming out.

I reccomend this pool if you are looking to do a pool party maybe for children, it is suitable for children from aged 2-8 it says on the ELC website, but my boys were just 1 when they had it and they loved it. The only way I would see it as a danger is if it was to deflate and collapse, but it does take a good few hours to deflate so you would notice it to be able to prevent such a danger. I only reccomend it if you have somewhere to store it such as a shed or garage as it's not the usual 'house toy'. It does definitely provide alot of fun and excitement and it's one of them things which can keep a group of children entertained. If you maybe havn't got the room to store it I would suggest searching for a smaller pool which is a bit more practical.

Summary: a lovely pool perfect for a summers day and a group of children, quite big though
