Every kid is fascinated by a train, especially when it comes chug chugging into the railway station. How would they feel if they could actually meet a train that can talk, sing and dance just like how we do? That is where Bob the Train comes in. Similar to the beloved Thomas the train, Bob loves toddlers as much as they love him, and his favorite time of the day is to visit the kindergarten school and play with his baby friends during their playtime! He is a good friend, the one who teaches your children valuable lessons like their alphabets, colors, shapes and numbers, as well as one who sings a variety of children songs and nursery rhymes to introduce your kids to the different types of animal sounds, opposites as well as the vegetables that they must eat. Bob chugs throughout the land of rhymes with a smile on his face, hoping to turn every kid’s frown into a smile. To allow him to do that, parents, you must subscribe to this channel quickly!
