Thomas the Tank Engine: The Jonas Brothers of the Toddler Set?

I don't have a child who's old enough to be into specific characters but from what I hear, Thomas the Tank Engine has throngs of adoring toddler fans just dying to get a glimpse of him.

Lucky for us Bronx parents, that cute little locomotive with a heart of gold is right over at the New York Botanical Garden... But time is running out. Both Thomas the Tank Engine and the annual Holiday Train Show will be heading back to the North Pole (otherwise known as some sort of storage facility at NYBG) on January 11th.

To close out the season, NYBG is offering a special interweb-only deal for Thomas tix: Buy a full-price adult ticket to Thomas and the Holiday Train Show and get one free child's ticket. Just click here and select "NYBG email promotion" and enter NYBG0109. Note: Garden is closed 1/5 and the internet offer is only valid 1/6 to 1/9.

While you're at the Garden, take a stroll to check out the final days of the Henry Moore sculptures, which was rated among Time Magazine's Top 10 Museum Exhibits of 2008. Nice photo ops for the little ones...
