TOMY Dinosaur Train Lights and Sounds and collectable dinosaur characters.

As Bug loves dinosaurs and trains it is no surprise that he loves Jim Henson's TV show Dinosaur Train.  His love of the hit Nick Jr show was sparked after we first climbed aboard the Dinosaur Train to watch a Dinosaur Train DVD and then later on reviewed the Dinosaur Train Spooky Adventures DVD.  Today at the grand old age of 3 the dinotastic show is one of dinosaur mad Bug’s favourite shows and he loves watching the show to see what his favourite Dinosaur Train character are up to and what adventures they embark on when they go on a trip on the magical Dinosaur Train.

Perfect for pre-schoolers fascinated with both dinosaurs and trains, Dinosaur Train with its wonderful world of adventure and fun is aimed at children aged 3-6 years old.  Set in the realistic prehistoric world little viewers get to witness natural history with swamps, jungles, oceans and active volcanoes making for magnificent backgrounds as an array of dinosaur species and other animal life is introduced to them in this colourful animation.  Created with the help of palaeontologists, science teachers and early childhood education experts, the show encourages basic scientific thinking skills as children are introduced to and taught about life science, natural history and palaeontology in a fun way.

Help Dora Help

Now that I am a mum I am on first name terms with many popular children’s TV show characters, one of which is Dora from the very popular Dora the Expolorer.  Dora’s show is great fun for little ones, entertaining them whilst also educating them.  I am well aware of Dora’s show but I was not aware until recently about The Help Dora Help Fund.  Other Dora the Explorer fans may also have never heard of this so I wanted to share a little bit of information about this fund.

Help Dora Help is a campaign created by award-winning pre-school TV channel Nick Jr. that helps facilitate learning and brings exploration to life in nurseries and pre-schools across the UK.
