The Little Engine that Could meets Virginia

Took Virginia to our church day care center this summer, with the train and a copy of The Little Engine that Could. We set up the track and the train. Virginia wore a pink engineer's cap and was the conductor. She had a hole punch and validated train tickets for 3 and 4 year olds before they got on the train.


The conductor kept standing on the track, which caused some consternation from the engineer. She also decided that her ticket office was a high table against the wall, and away from the passengers.

That night, Daddy was putting her to bed and asked about her day. "Well, let me tell you!" she began. "I went with Papa Dan to help him, and he read the story, but I did all the work!"

Ah, youth!
