As a child growing up we always had a train under the tree. My Mum loved it, my Dad hated it, but I have so many positive memories of seeing it move around the base of the tree. As soon as I saw the In the Night Garden Ninky Nonk Musical Activity Bubble Train I felt this could be a great modern way to create a traditional yet fun advent treat for the girls whilst also reinforcing some of the positive messages from In the Night Garden.
If you have larger items you want to gift during advent, you could even include a treasure hunt clue using pictures or words, leading children to hunt for the item hidden somewhere around the house. The train consists of the five carriages that make up the Ninky Nonk . The front carriage plays the Ninky Nonk tune when it is pulled along and has four buttons – three of which play the song for the character illustrated (Upsy Daisy, Igglepiggle and Makka Pakka) and the other one plays the In the Night Garden theme tune. The two lights at each end of the carriage flash with the music and the middle one lights up as a nightlight when the main theme tune is played. She will then pull the train along to its place under the tree, where it will be waiting for her in the morning with a surprise to reveal. Both my girls love In the Night Garden and when I spotted the Ninky Nonk Musical Activity Train in the shops, I knew what I wanted to get Sophie for her first birthday. Jessica had also spotted it and kept wanting to “have it, Mummy!” every time she saw it.Hidden bubble machine brings magical fun to everyone! Every toddler loves to watch, chase and catch bubbles... Ninky Nonk produces soap bubbles AND plays music from the ever-popular Cbeebies show. High-quality and great-value. Neve really loved running into the room and discovering what treats awaited her inside the Ninky Nonk, pulling around the train by its’ string until it reached the front of the tree, and then pulling away the lid to reveal her surprise! Ninky Nonk from In the Night Garden is now a fantastic activity centre! Play the day away in 15 different ways A sturdy toy train to stimulate the brain. Alternatively you could do a random acts of kindness theme; where each day there is a task to spread love and happiness at Christmas to those who might be feeling lonely or sad. The whole tower can also be lifted away from the base and creates a rain maker type rattle, with bead noises as its moved from side to side. There is also a variety of different textures to explore on the walls; from rubber stars to a zig zag panel.
Measuring 80cm in length, the In the Night Garden Ninky Nonk bubble train comes with 5 distinct carriages, four of which come complete with different shapes, textures, songs and activities to explore and all fit easily together with hooks and clips. I tested out the concept of the Ninky Nonk Bubble Train Advent with Neve to see how she would react; and as you can see from the video below – it was a real hit! There are three settings on the main carriage of the Ninky Nonk – off (no music or bubbles), Both music and bubbles, or music only. Christmas is fast approaching and yes, my tree has already made an appearance. Preschool is the perfect age to bring the magic of Christmas to life and like many parents, after the rollercoaster of a year that we’ve had, we are super keen to make Christmas as special as we can in 2020. I absolutely love the run up to Christmas and the sense of excitement that builds in children as the big day approaches. We always make sure we do lots of festive themed activities during December, including creative play, festive activities and of course, some advent themed fun from the 1st of December onwards. In terms of the advent surprises you decide to feature, the opportunities are pretty endless; and with the characters removed, there is a fairly substantial amount of space for you to hide their treats!
Who Am I?
With plenty of sounds noises and activities, you can use the Ninky Nonk Musical Activity Bubble Train inside or outside And at over 80cm long, this novel activity centre makes an ideal present. From an educational point of view, the In the Night Garden Ninky Nonk Bubble train is also a great way to stimulate your child’s senses, build their fine motor skills and encourage hand to eye coordination, construction and building skills. The centre carriage is probably the one children will be most familiar with from In the Night Garden and is the carriage of the Ninky Nonk where the characters sit. It also is big enough to store surprises, making it the ideal home for our Advent treats (see below to learn more!) The real surprise of the Ninky Nonk Bubble Train was of course the bubble machine, which was a real hit with Neve. The set comes with a large bottle of bubble solution included, and a small pot which is inserted into the base of the red Ninky Nonk carriage. Once used up, standard bubble solution can be used as a refill.
