Thomas & Friends: The Birthday Express DVD Review & Giveaway



My kids have recently become huge Thomas & Friends fans so they were more than happy to help review the latest Thomas & Friends release, The Birthday Express.   The storyline and delightful CD animation held their attention and then as soon as it ended, they wanted to watch it again!  And they did watch it again (and again)... but not right then.  This DVD would make a wonderful birthday present or a just because gift to the child in your life.

The best thing about this DVD is the fact that it comes with a wooden train whistle.  And it's nice because it's not a very loud or shrill whistle, so it's not annoying for mom.  My kids love the whistle and of course they fight over it as though they have no other toys. :)

The back cover description reads:
Unwrap your favorite episodes with this Thomas & Friends collection. Birthdays always come with surprises when your engine friends are part of the celebration. Percy must safely deliver a beautifully wrapped present, while Thomas encounters a mystery as he takes Sir Topham Hatt to the party. Full steam ahead for birthday fun!

Thomas & Friends: The Birthday Express includes these four episodes:

"Percy's Parcel"
"Double Trouble"
"The Man in the Hills"
"The Party Surprise"

Plus the DVD includes a bonus "The Birthday Express" game and Roary the Racing Car bonus episode.

"Thomas & Friends: The Birthday Express" runs for approximately 46 minutes and is targeted to children ages 2 through 5.  It retails for $16.98 and is currently $10.49 on Amazon!

  27. Hi Xmas Dolly, thanks for bringing that to my attention. I'm not sure what's up with the form! I have Norton and it is also attempting to block the form for me today (but was fine yesterday). I will manually add your info in to the form to make sure you are counted. Thanks for your entries!
