Did you know that this year is the 70th anniversary of Thomas the Tank Engine? It’s an idealised world created by the Reverend W. Awdry, where trains are powered by steam… and they talk! With a strong community ethos typified by a universal willingness to help, practice good manners and hard work, Thomas and his friends continue to inspire and entertain children.
My 4 year old has always enjoyed reading and watching the adventures of Thomas and his friends. He has plenty of engines and track to play with but sometimes it’s good to craft too. Today I’m sharing 15 Thomas and Friends crafts for kids:

Love some of the ideas – but is it my imagination or is the Bento lunch one in Japanese? It looks promising but I haven’t got a clue how they’ve put it together LOL
