Trains

Oct 18

I have been promising Jojo for half the year that I would do a train only storytime. It happened last night. He brought in several train sets for display and to play with after reading a couple of stories on, of course trains. The kids were real busy and antsy because of the surprise. It was choo-rrefic fun!
