MY THOUGHTS:

This is a great collection of three Thomas & Friends DVDs.  It includes three older Thomas & Friends DVDs (2004, 2006, 2006).  Each DVD is full of Thomas and his friends having fun (not that they don’t normally have fun in other DVDs!)  My boys loved the DVDs because each featured six episodes plus great bonus features.  Their favorite DVD is “On Site with Thomas” because it features trains and a construction site!  There are also lots of great trains throughout the DVDs which my boys were not too familiar with such as Fergus, Donald, Oliver and more!  The DVD pack is a great value and perfect for any Thomas fan!  Since it does include older Thomas & Friends DVDs in this set, you may want to make sure your child doesn’t already have any of them – luckily for us we don’t really have any old Thomas & Friends DVDs so it didn’t matter to us.
