Happy 6th Birthday to my lil "dinky dot", I can't believe you are 6yrs old today, where has the time gone???
Me, my hubby and friend we were staying with put up Thomas Tank banners ready for him to wake up to. We didn't do too many because it wasn't my house. But lil man was happy.
He had already had some of his birthday presents before his birthday - like his scooter so that he had the 6weeks holidays to play on it and he had his presents from 1 of his godmothers before we went away so he could thank her. We left his cards on the table but not his presents as we didnt want the dogs to rip them open!
He was really pleased when he opened his presents - a thomas tank wallet (to put his birthday money into he said) and a thomas watch, a thoms tank dvd he has been asking about for ages, a set of speedstcks and lastly and most importantly a thomas tank mega bloks set that has Butch the recovery lorry in, he has wanted it for ages but it was discontinued 18months ago, I found it on ebay though! He had £5 and a pack of malteasers from his great nan, a jigsaw from his other godmother, £10 from my sister and £5 from his best friend/girlfriend, and his other godparents sent him £20 as well.
He is 1 very lucky little boy. We spent the day playing, and sorting out food etc as we were having a small party in the evening. All of the food had thomas trains and labels, we played thomas games etc.
FOOD
we had: sir tophams sausage rolls
Diesel'sfuel stop for the drinks
rosie's rocks of grapes and raisins
Farmer mccolls fruit & veg car - carrot & cucumber
Thomas's treat car - barney bear cakes, iced gems and party rings
Toby's twiglet lumber
Charlie's crisp car
Charlie's chicken bits
James's jelly 
GAMES
We placed sweets in gre and black balloons and said that they were fallen rocks and they had to burst them in order to move them from the track, once burst they had teh sweets but had to clear up the bits of balloon as "they were still on the tracks"! (saved me cleaning up).
Here they are trying to burst them
We played "pass the train" instead of pass the parcel. The train was an empty box with no lid and I covered it with a train front, back and both sides, inside it we put sweets. When the music started they passed the train around and when it stopped whoever had it took out a sweet. We made sure that everyone had 2 sweets (there were only 5 there but should have been more). Then on the last go whoever had the train won it and the rest of the sweets. This happened to land on birthday boy and he said would share them with everyone.
We also did musical bumps and musical statues. The last game we did was "pin the light on thomas" (bought off ebay). This is played in the same way as pin the tail on donkey etc. We "cheated" for the 2 12year olds and turned the image upside down but 1 of them still won!
We had planned to play coal toss (bean bags into a bucket) but we didnt in the end as the kids we're happy to just dance to the music and disco lights.
