Polar Express!!!

Rylie absolutely is obsessed with choo-choo trains, because of the movie Polar Express, and our many visits to play with the trains at the toy store. She talks about trains ALL DAY LONG.

Our Nanny, Kaitlin told us about this great exhibit at a Mall in Denver, where kids literally walk through the Polar Express movie. The scene is set in and around a snow globe. Here is a bird's eye view.



There are differnt scenes where you press big buttons to hear sounds. You get to go inside the engine room and pull levers and turn wheels, where Rylie was shouting "stop the train" and "all aboard". Kids also get to go to the North Pole where you get snowed on and see the big train coming out of the tunnel, where Rylie continually shouted "Train, train, train!" Santa of course, is at the end of the exhibit greeting kids with pictures and cheer. Needless to say, we stayed for an hour and she was COVERED in fake snow. Rylie thought she owned the place. We must return.
