Radiator Springs

If I would let him, Trey would watch the movie, Cars, every single day.  The trick for potty training him was to have a "potty chart" and when he went potty he would put up a sticker.  When the row was filled, we would go buy a new Cars toy.  (We actually started buying new Thomas trains, but those were twice as much as a Cars car.  So, he got talked into cars instead.)


Well... a couple months later and he's collected all the Cars 2 characters we can find in the stores.
 
To get him to stop wanting to watch Mater's Tall Tales on the computer (which are HILARIOUS!) I got some postal paper and rolled it out and we started drawing.  Sadly enough, we all now know Radiator Springs pretty well- which is where Lightning McQueen and all the Cars characters live.  So, the kids got out crayons, put up some images on the computer and started making Radiator Springs!  
Now he can drive his cars along the road and pull into Flo's Cafe, Luigi and Guido's tire shop, the Cozy Cone, Red's Fire Station, Ramone's Body Shop, or others.
