Moms of 4 yr boys-rose825, anna, JTK, etc Come in
All input welcome - from Moms with boys a little bigger too - barbara, Tracy...
Whats on the holiday list for your boys? Some of the stuff my son likes is a tough call. 4 years seems to be an in between stage for certain things. He LOVES building stuff but hes too young for some of the things (6+) and too old for some others (3+). With the building toys it seems to be especially divided. WHy does everything he loves have little parts. I dont so much have a problem with the small parts as much as its unrealistic for him to be able to build a Knex battery powered ferris wheel but making little 6 piece animals will bore him.
Looking for more ideas...HELP!

My son is 4 1/2. These are some of the things he asked for for Christmas: * Diego Treehouse * New Disney/ Pixar movies * Playdough * Moon SAnd * Remote Control Car * Air Hockey Table * Various Board games * Microscope * Rock 'em Sock 'em robots * This spiky inside out ball you wear on your head * Vtech Vsmile and games
Hope some of that helps you out some.

I'll get you Joseph's list but headsup for the moms of the imaginex castle.
There are little pieces in them. Your son will not be able to build them - unless they are more dexterous then me or my husband.
The pieces are a PITA & once you've spend over a half hour building it, you can watch as your son's dragon smashes it to smithereens. In the end, we have them all over the place. I hate, hate, hate it. It's the same as the batcave.
If you opt for it, buy some crazy glue with it.

This is the stuff that Paul is getting:
Kid Tough Digital Camera and case Cars video game for VSmile system Thomas train Signal junction Power Rangers figures Cars Piston Cup 500 track set Polar Express Hot chocolate Car/Ice Danger/North Pole - (these are basically just wooden accessories for the Thomas tracks that evoke moments from the movie) Playmobile Blackbeard pirate ship Playmobile pirate dungeon Super hero dress up trunk Cars carrying case and Cars characters Cars Lightning McQueen slippers Leap Frog Super Saver Teaching Bank Backyardigans Video CD’s/Books
Without a doubt, the Playmobile Pirate stuff has small parts...and I have NO idea how I will deal with that.

What isn't Ryan getting fro Christmas. My problem is I finished shopping weeks ago but I keep seeeing things he asks for or I want for him. Fortunately I can save some for his birthday which is 3 weeks later.
I cant help you too much with building unless he likes to build train tracks. My DS is train obsessed. But what about Lincoln Logs? I wouldnt get anything for 6 and up because he will just get too frustrated not being able to do it.
This is what I can think of that we got DS:
Polar express train set Thomas mountain Fire Engine Station Train Set Thomas clothes Thomas Laptop toy Thomas tent Play House thing Personalized BUzz Lightyear Book Lightning McQueen Buckaroo game He asked for a mermaid -we havent gotten it backyardigans Book that plays music (he loves music)- thinking about getting the FP3 player for his birthday Dinosaur Books Musical drumsticks A guitar
and character clothes and underwear- boring but he'll love them.
