This is a great product and one that Cookie Monster would love to show off. The suspension bridge , train and tracks, signs plus the child's favorite Sesame Street characters. Compatible with Brio train tracks and other playsets, child can build a whole town around the tracks. The train cars are held together with magnets. One additional point . Dr. Toy is very glad to note that part of the proceeds from this product line will help to support Children's Television Workshop, producer of "Sesame Street." Dr. Toy approved the first grant for Sesame Street years ago at the Department of Education in Washington. This is one great, long lasting program that has contributed to millions of children.
Tip:
Read a train story to your child. When you watch "Sesame Street" together talk about the action on the program. Answer your child's questions about what they watch on television. Have them draw pictures of the trains or create their own play buildings from paper and cardboard . Hold them up with cardboard backing.
