Thomas and Friends - Misty Island Rescue
In this fully animated Thomas the train series you will notice a slight change as compared to the normal stop-bit-animation style series. This episode was meant to be more of a music video. Although its a music video if you listen to the words of the song it still has the over all positive message that Thomas and his friends are known for delivering. I personally found it to be pretty nice until my nephew replayed the video a million times. I would hear this song in my sleep :D.
You must be warned... You should only play this video at your own risk. You child may also go running around the house singing it over and over again also. If this should occur you can in no way hold myself or anyone affiliated with the thomasthetrainfansite.com website responsible. :D
Thomas and Friends in Calling All Engines - “The Deleted Scenes”
This video gives you an your child the rare opportunity to see some of the scenes that has never before been released. This video pretty much consists of a bunch of unused material that the production company never used, all put together over a musical score. If you pay attention to some of the deleted clips it will become apparent why they decided not to use some of the clips.
You can tell that on some clips that camera went soft, and other clips you can see where they had problems with the animation. However most of the clips that were never used were cut from the final show do to time restraints. When being aired on television the creators of thomas are limited to a specific amount of time. Because of the time restraints they have to pick and choose which footage will stay in and which footage must be removed.
Other Creative Ideas
You can also print out several coloring pages, let your kids color them all then place the page in sequence to make up your on story. I have had some parents tell me that they will use a three-hole punch and bread yarn to make little customized books that were written using our coloring pages.
Some teachers would allow the children to make up segments of the story for each page. Once they had enough pages with text on them to create and entire story they would bind the pages into a book and parents would trade and share their creations. Parents would also use these books as bedtime stories for their other siblings.
Parents, teachers and other childcare educators around the world have been using are online directory of printable sheets for years. It is advisable that you too take advantage of the great free resource for the little ones in your life.
And trust me when I say... Its ok for you to print out a few coloring pages for yourself, after all we were once kids too :D Ahhh the good old days - sometimes they seem like a distant memory LOL. Anyway thank you for watching our videos and I hope you found them both entertaining and educational.
