I am sure most parents can relate to having a child who enjoys Thomas the Train! That's why I was really excited when I was contacted to share with you all a Thomas the Train event that's rolling into town, as well as a ticket giveaway!!

A Day Out with Thomas: The Hero of The Rails Tour is coming to the Tumbleweed Express in Lakeville, MN on August 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, & 16 (from 8:30am-5pm)! This event is being presented by HIT Entertainment, a worldwide leader in children's entertainment!!

This fun-filled event will offer children and their families a day to remember with the opportunity to take a ride with a 14-ton replica of Thomas the Tank Engine and ride along with him on his latest adventure! What child wouldn't love to see their favorite toy train come to life, right?!

A little more information about this fun event and what a day with Thomas the Tank Engine will look like:

*A 25 minute ride with Thomas the Tank Engine
*An opportunity to meet Sir Topham Hatt, Controller of The Railway
*Activities for the whole family which include: arts & crafts, storytelling, video viewing, live music by Will Hale and the Tadpole Parade, inflatable slide, ball pit, straw bale maze, kid carwash and temporary tattoos!!
