Activity train a pin toy made in Thailand this is identical to the train in the picture

I have bought this train fort Adrian’s first birthday .I could not resist playing with it so I thought I would get it out for examination. This is a wooden train and 2 carriages,

Let me pretend to be 1 yr old and play with this pintoy wooden activity train.

I look at it; on the engine the boiler is a bright yellow, the cab a post-box red these are fixed to a natural wooden base. There are 4 green wheels I turn them round easily they look inviting let me get them into my mouth ohh that’s good, I think I have got tooth number 6 coming.
On the yellow boiler is a funnel ohh when I put my finger on it presses down I wonder if that will go in my mouth? Yes.
Oh it squeaked at me when I pushed the funnel right down let me try that again, yes a squeak.
The engine has a red string attached to it at the front, it comes out at the back of the engine and a little toggle is attached to it.
I put the engine down and I have picked up a carriage the natural wood base is like the engine base this one has blue wheels I can see mummy trying to teach me my colours here.
There is a yellow funnel attached to this carriage I see it has a round mirror at the top I can see me. Hello handsome. Coo isn’t I gorgeous.
I grab the funnel with my hand, whaaah I pulled it of the engine mummy help me, ahh that’s better mummy shows me it has got this stuff called Velcro on it, the funnel sticks back on the carriage that’s good I do it again and again and again, Practicing my fine motor skills here.
This carriage has a loop of red string at one end and a toggle attached to the other, mummy shows me how to attach this carriage to the engine how to put the toggle on the engine through the red string loop on the carriage mmmmm I cant do that. Mummy gives me another carriage this one also has a matching wooden base and red wh

ee
ls I can’t say red yet but I expect I will soon. This carriage has a piece of thick metal looped and curved over the carriage. There are5 round coloured buttons on it mummy takes my hand to help me move them from one side to the other. 1 button, 2, 3, 4, 5, she says I think that’s counting there are lots anyway.
Here we go again she takes my hand to move one button blue she says then the next one green she says, next yellow, then orange last one red. I smile sweetly at her, clever boy she says ah I know how to win her over.
I play with these disks for a little while on my own. Next mummy helps me attach this third and last carriage to the train.

It does look smart my train each carriage measures 9 cm long that’s about 3 ½ inches to you old folk when stretched out the whole train measures 32 cm is about 13 inches at the front of the train is a red string I can pull the train along with that, it moves easily choo choo choo choo (I cant really say choo choo yet, but that’s what adults always say when they pull my smart new train yes the skinflint bought it new, no charity shop birthday present I must be special)
Hey I think my train is good. I can’t yet walk to pull it, I can stand for a few seconds on my own but no one has seen me take a step yet. But I can sit on the floor and pull it its fine.

The train feels good smooth wood its hard lots of wheels to turn and disks to play with. I can play with this while mummy watches her boring television. If you want to see a picture of my train its on at www.mailorderexpress.com its called an activity train costs £11.99.

Nana just had a look at some of the other toys for sale from pin toy she says they look good; in fact some of them she recognises from work. Still I am happy playing with my train choooo choo.

Thanks for reading this op I hope Adrian does not read it as it is over a month to his birthday. Best wishes Enjoy playing w
