magnets

since we've been acquiring a fair number of trains recently, big guy has really been working the magnets. each train has a magnet on either side. Big guy likes to link them together and make longer trains. Which in turn annoy him eventually and then he rips them apart. And very cutely, he uses his cool crane toy from ikea (which has a magnetic point to pick up shapes with corresponding magnets) to haul around the trains. very clever in my opinion.
