- Adjust Speed (Optional): Modify the track layout (e.g., straighter sections) to influence the train's speed.
- Add Decorations: Enhance the scene with mini decorations, toys, or figurines to bring the story to life.
- Encourage Storytelling: Encourage imaginative play and storytelling as the train moves.
