Train Table

The biggest fry got a train table for Christmas. It too has an Ikea connection. In this case, it was an Ikea coffee table in it's previous life. All I did to it was paint it. I decided to go with some Thomas-y blue for the legs and under shelf, and grassy green for the top. I added the train track around the outer edge so that it would match his light plate.
 It worked out better than I could have hoped. Turns out, the shelf and top are almost the exact spacing that the GeoTrax tracks are (my son may love Thomas, but I love GeoTrax).
 It must be some magical number, because the shelf also fits the Sterilite storage boxes that I already use perfectly as well.
Dad and kids have had a great time playing.
