[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wooden train tracks are wooden train tracks, most of them are interchangeable. I would buy an in expensive set and then add in some of the BRIO bridges and bigger pieces as your child gets older. We bought trains at Target because they were inexpensive. You don't need the more expensive Thomas trains or save those for gifts.

PP here, we have an entire storage bin filled with train set pieces, our kid played with them from the age of 2 through 8 or 9. The generic wooden tracks are fine, you pay a bit more for some of the fun pieces.

The other hit with our kid, eventual, was marble runs. There are wooden ones that are fun but a bit trickier to build with. Some of the plastic marble ones are pretty amazing in how they can be expanded and used. I would say the trains and marble runs were go to toys for years. I actually see the marble run out on occasion, even at 13, when DS is home and a bit bored. He pulls them out and sees what he can build. We limit screen time to an hour a day during the week.
