Chugga, chugga, whoooo, whoooo.  My son LOVES trains.  Until a recent thrift store find, he didn’t have a toy train.  We just used yarn to tie together cars and used popsicle sticks, paper strips or wood blocks as track.  He still sees everything as a possible train or track (even lined up breakfast cereal!)  So last weekend my husband suggested we use foam board packaging to create yet another train.  The inspiration was our tractor book which has wheels that move.  So my husband drew & cut out the train cars.  We used a nail to punch the wheel holes and used brads so the wheels can turn.  Our next rainy day project is to paint the trains.
