Why is Thomas the Tank Engine so special?
If you haven't seen any of them yet, you will soon see why it is so great!
The Thomas the Tank Engine series or books, games, toys, movies and more is a wonderful interest for kids to have! Thomas is a wonderful role model and throughout all of his captivating adventures a few clear points are very well made.
In this day and age it can be difficult to find icons that are interesting, exciting and fun that also provide strong positive examples for kids. The few that do make the attempt often fail to capture the child's interest or are so cheesy that no-one can stand to be in the room- Thomas is a very different story!
In the Thomas the Tank Engine series, a few clear messages shine through loud and clear. The importance of having a strong work ethic is one of my favorite lessons and this is found in each and every Thomas story. Along with a powerful message about work ethic comes the emphasis on personal responsibility, including lessons like accepting responsibility for your mistakes, helping and teamwork.
Good manners are consistently demonstrated throughout- the only exceptions to the good manners are some of the diesels (who are not always nice) and occasionally the aptly named Cranky the Crane but it is always the polite and responsible engines who work really hard who come out ahead.
There are many more great morals and character traits demonstrated including punctuality, honesty, caring, team work and more. All of these messages are expertly delivered in a way that is nothing but fun, magic and excitement to children!

5 Thomas the tank Engine Movie: Thomas in Charge!
Thomas always tries to be a good, reliable, responsible and helpful engine but sometimes inexperience, over enthusiasm and immaturity trip him up.
In this movie, Thomas tries to help out with shunting the coal cars "faster than fast". The island was preparing for a visit from the Railway Inspector so Thomas (trying to make Sir Toham Hatt proud) gathered his friends to help. Thomas directs the engines as they shunted and accidentally causes them to back into one another covering Sir Topham Hatt and the railroad Inspector... and went down Gordon's funnel.
My son loves this Thomas the Tank Engine movie because it is funny and he strongly identifies with Thomas being so over excited that he makes a mistake- as well as his strong desire to make everything right when mistakes happen.
I love this movie because it reminds kids to slow down because it is better to do the job right than to finish it fast. It is also a great reminder that we can always make things right when we make mistakes and that problems are temporary.

4 Thomas the tank Engine Movie: Misty Island Rescue
After working hard to help build new stations and rails for the new rescue center, Thomas rescued Diesel and was rewarded with a trip to the mainland. Thomas got on a raft and was lost and wound up on Misty island when the chain broke. Whiff and Percy managed to recue Thomas and brought Bash, Dash and Ferdinand (who were out of oil) back as well.
Many fans of the original Thomas the Tank engine series were upset at this new movie which uses CGI instead of the older methods that our generation is used to. While I must admit I was a bit put off by the change at first it is nice for the kids to get to see the engines' mouths move (I personally felt it made more sense that their mouths move when they speak).

3 Thomas the tank Engine Movie: Hero of the Rails
I asked my son about this movie...."Hiro is broken down and rusty and Thomas finds him. Hiro tells the story of how he used to be, but he is missing a part and could not puff right any more. He puffed really hard when Spencer arrived and then parts fell off. "
The friends recruited help to get Hiro to the steam works to make certain he wouldn't be scrapped. While at the steam works, Hiro also received a shiny new paint job!
My son loves this movie because Hiro is found and rescued. "It is just a cool movie"
I love this movie because it helps kids understand that there was meaning to lives that came before us and that being older or physically damaged does not make anyone less useful or interesting. Everyone has a story to tell and everyone's life should be valued. Respect for elders is vital and sadly declining in our society- hopefully this movie can help to re-instill those values that many people seem to have lost.

2 Thomas the tank Engine Movie: Day of the Diesels
Thomas became too busy to spend time with Percy after a fire on Sodor. Thomas found two brand new friends- fire engines named Bell and Flynn- real heroes. Thomas and his two new friends (Flynn and Bell) spent every moment together and Percy felt left out. Percy was befriended by a Diesel and they spent their time together at the Steam Works where Percy ultimately discovers that the diesels were using him to try and take over the steam works from within.
This is a movie with great lessons in friendship, trust and caring. Although it is very important for kids to focus on all of the positives like caring and responsibility it is also important that they learn to recognize when someone is taking advantage of them and how to handle it.
It is also important that kids learn how to balance their interests and to see that it is ok to make new friends, just so long as they remember the friends who have always been there for them.

1 Thomas the tank Engine Movie: Thomas and the Magic Railroad
This Thomas the Tank Engine movie is our family's all time favorite! This is a must see movie for any fans of Thomas and Friends!
A young girl named Lilly (played by Mara Wilson) went to visit her Grandpa (Peter Fonda), she discovered a whole new world and met great trains and people along the way. Mr conductor (played by Alec Baldwin) travels by using his magic gold dust, he runs out of gold dust which puts the entire island in jeopardy of being over run by Diesels. The group finds more help from Mr conductor's cousin Junior (played by Michael E. Rodgers) while back on muffle mountain Patch (played by Cody McCains) helps Grandpa try and get Lady (played by Brit Alcroft) running again.
This movie had many touching moments and lots of adventure as the group of friends work together to find more magic gold dust.
Some viewers have been critical of this movie but when you get right down to it, this movie is not for the critics, it is for the kids... the kids seem to LOVE it and enjoy it and that is what matters the most!
I personally love this one the most because my son fell in love with it so quickly and it (as Thomas movies always do) taught him valuable lessons about responsibility, being brave and more. It is also is done in a way that makes it enjoyable for all ages.
