5.0 out of 5 stars My 3 year old loves it, November 10, 2009

This review is from: THOMAS' STICKER EXPRESS (Thomas & Friends) (Super Stickerific) (Paperback)

This book has lasted for about a year now and my son still loves it. There are so many stickers that it takes forever to use them. My son started coloring the book as most of the stickers got used up - as one person mentioned, it is also a coloring book. He learned to match the stickers to the pictures throughout the book. He even watched the Thomas the Train TV show to learn the names of a few ones he didn't know in this book. I think that this book is well worth the money - at least for any kid under the age of 4 who likes Thomas the Train.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the little Thomas fans, January 1, 2008

This review is from: THOMAS' STICKER EXPRESS (Thomas & Friends) (Super Stickerific) (Paperback)

My just turned 2 year old son old LOVES this sticker book. I bought it to take on an airplane trip as a distraction and it worked wonderfully. My son loves placing the stickers randomly throughout the book. As the other reviews mention, the stickers don't stick well. However, I found this to be a good thing in many ways, since they also won't stick to things you don't want them stuck to. Even when accidentally stuck together, they easily pull apart. They stick just well enough to stick to a page, but can also be removed easily and stuck somewhere else. After being moved a couple times, they no longer stick, but there are so many stickers in the book my son doesn't notice when we throw out the ones that don't stick any more. I'm not sure a 4-8 year old would be as pleased with this book, but for the little ones who like stickers and Thomas, I think it's well worth the money.

This review is from: THOMAS' STICKER EXPRESS (Thomas & Friends) (Super Stickerific) (Paperback)

My two-year old grandson, who is currently enamored with trains, received "Thomas' Sticker Express" for his second birthday. He liked the two stories which accompanied the pictures to be colored and was able to, with minimal help, complete the activities which integrated into the storylines. The pictures to color are not so elaborate that children who have more hand-eye coordination than a two-year old will have diffiulty coloring. Two-year olds, on the other hand, will likely not be frustrated because they don't know that conventional wisdom says to color inside the lines.

The 700 stickers, alone, are worth the purchase price of "Thomas' Sticker Express," particularly when stickers are used as incentives, to mark important events/accomplishments, or to indicate a task has been accomplished. Some stickers are appropriate for embellishing the coloring pictures, and some can be used to create a railroad on a separate piece of paper. The adhesive does not seem to be so strong that removing stickers that have been put where they don't belong would be difficult. I was able to easily remove a sticker that I tested on uncoated cardboard; a page in "Time Magazine," and on a painted wall. That does not mean the stickers don't stick; rather it means, to me, that the manufacturer put some thought into what children may do with the stickers.

I would gauge the age range on "Thomas' Sticker Express" to be in the 2 - 5 years of age. While the product description says it is appropriate for 4 - 8 years of age, it seems this product may be too elementary for those at the upper half of the recommended ages.
