Forget fire trucks, bulldozers, police cars, tractors...Kekoa is obsessed with trains. The first thing he wants to do when he wakes up is "play choo choo track". The first toys he looks for when he wakes up are his "choo choo steamy" (the black steam engine) and "choo choo back" (the red steam engine). He brings them into his bed during nap time and sometimes at night too. He had read his "choo choo Thomas" book that Delilah gave him so many times that he knows it by heart now. The book "Freight Train", by Donald Crews is a must read before bed. This one is checked out from the library so we may have to purchase it. He can spot "choo choo Thomas" paraphernalia from miles away and then can't stop talking about what he saw Thomas on, a bucket or shovel or backpack...whatever the item was.
He plays trains while I get dinner together. I get to listen to all the cuteness. When he says "all aboard", it is the most adorable thing ever. I never get tired of hearing it. I also so love his sound effects of the train running along the tracks.
Kekoa eats, sleeps, plays trains. Trains, trains, trains!
Kekoa loves going to Oak Meadow park to ride the train and to just watch the train. To guide the train in, gesture with their hands when it is safe for the train to go backwards. Kekoa now copies them, "backing it up" as he calls it. It is SO cute.
