This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Marci. Congrats.
This year, Chuggington, the popular preschool show on Playhouse Disney, is launching new ways for children to bring the characters home. Along with their play sets and games, they’ve launched a series of books based on the show in partnership with Scholastic.
New books always arouse excitement in our home. My son loves books and while he definitely has his favorites, it’s nice to introduce new content to further his reading skills. The five books being introduced are geared towards preschoolers (which is also the target audience for the show) and include two board books, two colorful story books, and a sticker book. Here is a brief summary of what’s to come:
The Chugger Championship follows Wilson and Koko as they complete the big train race.
All Around Chuggington is an interactive lift-the-flap board book that will teach your child about colors, numbers, animals, and more.
Welcome to Chuggington introduces children to the entire traintastic crew.
Let’s Ride the Rails is a sticker book where children use their imagination to complete the scenes. It’s actually my son’s favorite of the five books being released.
Wilson and the Ice Cream Fair follows Frostini and Wilson as they deliver ice cream.
Children who know and love the show will enjoy following the trains of Chuggington on their adventures. The pictures in the books are authentic and there is consistency throughout the books with the show. Action and adventure drive the story lines, but it’s important to note that Chuggington aims to strengthen social-emotional skills and offer life lessons on friendship, respect, and truth-telling. Overall, my son enjoyed the entire set of books. He’s 3 1/2 and still enjoys board books, however, I feel that he’s most challenged by the story books. We’re both excited to see the number of books expand this year.

I like that there’s usually a lesson that they learn from each episode and that they set kids up to be excited about learning, the way the chuggers are.
