Playing with magnetic tiles, paw patrol action figures and vehicles and doing jigsaws.

Reading Julia Donaldson books and that sort of thing.

Thanks. Very similar to here.

With Christmas so close, I've run out of ideas!

Anything magnetic. We are reading a chapter of the magic faraway tree every day.

I don’t have a four year old, but I love the look of the Yoto player. Especially with a new baby, it might help to entertain him but without screens, and he should be able to operate it by himself.

Understood OP, my daughter is 5 next month and people are asking what they can get her and I haven’t a clue.

Lexibook Powerman robot was a big hit on my four year olds birthday. Book wise, the 'Oi Dog/Cat/Aardvark' series, or 'You're Called What?!' always makes them laugh.
