The winner is:
Cindy says My grandson would love this toy and I need some big boy toys at my house now that he will be turning 2 in August. I enjoy quiet time in my sunroom in the morning with a good cup of coffee, but am now looking forward to spending some time on the porch at the lake this summer. Thanks for the opportunity.
I got a chance to check out a few new toys from the Fisher Price spring line and I am very happy that Fisher Price agreed to give one of each toy to you guys! So I will have 4 giveaways over the next four days. Then I have a few things for mom coming as well that you will love!
So the first is this Thomas the Train Take Along Tidmouth Shed. As you guys know, Thomas is a very popular guy around our house so this was by far my little girl’s favorite toy. Interestingly, my 1 year old is pretty taken with Thomas as well.
These take along toys are fun because they fold right up and have a little handle so your child can tote them very easily from place to place. One of the things that I liked best about this toy is that it literally unfolds right out of the box- there is no assembly and no little pieces to get lost (or eaten!)
The Tidmouth Shed comes with one Thomas the Train- you can buy other take n play engine cars and they will all attach via magnet to each other.
This little track will also extend to the other Take n Play toys so you can make it as big as you like. The retail value is $30 and it can be purchased from Fisher Price HERE.
You can see some of the other Take Along toys from Amazon HERE.
When we first opened Thomas I thought- uh oh. This might be the only thing in our house that doesn’t light up or make noises so I was thinking it might not hold their attention for very long. Wrong! Both of my girls played with this for quite awhile and I have to say it was incredibly pleasant to have a little peace and quiet!
So if you have a Thomas fan in your house, you can enter to win a Tidmouth Shed for your little one.
Just leave a comment below letting me know what you would do to enjoy a few minutes of quiet time in your house! I was quite happy to make dinner in peace and quiet while the girls took Thomas out for a few spins. I actually read a recipe all the way through and didn’t have to listen to whirling or ringing or singing songs the entire time which was just lovely.
I will select a winner on Saturday at 10am. If you are viewing this in a reader or email you need to click through to the blog to submit your comment. I am very sorry but due to my personal time constraints any entries via Facebook, Twitter or email will not count.
GOOD LUCK!!
Disclosure: I was not compensated for this post in any way and all opinions expressed are my own. We did receive a sample Thomas for review.
Candice says
I would LOVE to cook dinner without my son being dangerously at my feet and whining at me. Ahhh…one can dream. 🙂
melanie says
My two boys love trains and it being Thomas would be so much better- they don’t have any Thomas stuff- it has always been too expensive.
Jenn says
What a cool toy! I would love to switch laundry without someone attached to my legs.
Toni LaFrankie says

My daughter loves trains. I would love to make dinner without her being in the kitchen with me
Paula says
My nephew would love this…and I would finish some organizing that keeps getting pushed by the wayside.
Sandra says
I would love to check my email in peace.
My kids would love this, thanks!
Tammy says
My son (15 mo) hasn’t ever played with Thomas, but I think he’d like to! And I sure know I could use a little “quiet time” so I can finally finish reading Atlas Shrugged!
hollee says
I would love this for my 3 & 4 year olds. I love this site for many reasons!
Stephanie says
Reposting with correct email.
I would love to have a Thomas the Train set for my granddaughter. We have a couple of the engines and cars now and she loves playing with them. My son is a Navy Reservist and a single dad, so when he is on active duty or training, we have our granddaughter alot. This sounds like something she could carry back and forth from Dad’s house to Mimi & Papa’s house too.
Christy says
I would sit down and read a book! My youngest LOVES Thomas!
Staci says
Fold the laundry without little helpers unfolding it!
Jessica says
My 3 1/2 yr pushes my 7 month old in her walker and says – chugga chugga choo choo…..and loves the new show on Disney – chuggintown. This would be the perfect time to play with this toy.
Mo says
My daughter would love this! I would probably just sit back and watch her play with it if we won.
Mellisa Swigart says
I would sit in a chair and relax! My daughter is really starting to get into thomas so she would love this toy!
Sommer says
Funny you should ask… With a 4-year-old & a newborn just having free time to get showered & dressed is a miracle some days let alone having “mommy” time! 😉 I’m sure you can relate. It’s always nice to have quiet time to get regular duties done around the house, but honestly I would just love an hour to be able to play in the garden in the nice spring weather!
Yesi says
I would love for Little Thomas to entertain my kids for 30 minutes so I can read in peace in the evening.
Kristine says
My son would go crazy over this! It just might give me a chance to write a blog post!
bobbie says
great question! i would shop! spend more time on the internet! email old friends. call my mom. oh and also the gym/exercise. Hmmm but I guess that’s more than just a few minutes isn’t it? 😉
Nicole A says
My boys love Thomas!! I would LOVE to have a few moments of quiet time on the computer, get through a blog post without being interrupted 12 times, A fave quiet time of mine is a couple of nights a week I hide in the bedroom and watch a favorite show, it is so awesome! It’s usually not that quiet but at least the Mr. is entertaining the littles 🙂 Thanks for the chance!
Michelle says
My 4 yr old daughter loves Thomas and all his “friends”. She will not share with her little brother so this would be a wonderful gift for just him. I would love for them to have their own trains and give me a break from the “Mom he took my train again”. Thanks for the chance to win this.
JANAKI says

Thomas is a huge hit in our house. My 2yr old would love this.
mammynatalie says
My boyfriend had to work hard to get together with my 2,5 years old son Danny. Nothing really worked. Danny was crying and running away every time my new boyfriend show up in our house.It was terrible time and I was ready to give up and stop my relationship. But my boys became best friends the same day as we bought Tomas train take alone and played at home together as a family. Thanks for great toy idea!
