Musician always looks forward to watching new Thomas & Friends DVDs, and I think Curious Cargo is his new favorite, especially because of the Thomas' Tall Friend episode.

He loved the giraffe in the episode and was curious to see how Thomas would go under a bridge despite transporting a very tall giraffe.

The giraffe did eventually lie down with the help of Thomas' friends, but he wouldn't wake up, so Thomas had to figure out what to do, and he did!

Musician kept wanting to watch this episode, and after watching the DVD a second time, he ended up getting a foamie sticker giraffe and placed it on one of his Thomas toys to recreate the episode at home!


I personally liked the Big Belle episode.  It was all about how Belle tried too hard to be Toby's friend, but ultimately they did became friends once Belle realized she didn't need to try so hard, and all she had to do was listen to what her new friend was saying.

I often see this happen in real life - where people try too hard to be friends with someone, and they don't really take the time to listen or find out more about someone.

This episode taught a great lesson - about how it's important to listen and be yourself.

Curious Cargo delivered several great episodes and lessons, and I know Musician will keep watching it again and again, especially to see Thomas and the giraffe!

My 3y.o. son absolutely loves Thomas. Since we don't get it on regular TV (except the 5-minute "teasers" on Sprout that only leave him wanting more), having a DVD available for him to watch anytime is a big deal!
