OK so I am one of those last minute shoppers. I am sure I am not alone here. Anyways, I| am going to go out and do it all today. what are some hot toys for a 4 year old? He really loves photography and computers (just like mom). I already got him the digital camera by Fisher Price. And well we already have two computers. So I am drawing a blank here. Any ideas?

Any kind of games that make him think are always good, too!

Maybe he would like a PSP or a Nintendo DS?
There are lots of educational games for both...

And not to mention those would be AWESOME gifts...

Now I'm all sad cause I want one of EACH!


:tongue:


I have no kids so... maybe I shouldn't have answered. LOL.


Good luck!drinker

ha! thats funny. a psp would be destroyed in the hands on a 4 year old. a ds would last longer but the stylus would be missing in no time.

Just a thought, but maybe something for outside? My son is older (7) and loves photography, but I also got him some things for outside to do what little boys do best, like a bug catcher and a scientist kit. I got him a new camera this year, but for smaller gifts, wanted him to keep his interest of looking at bugs and plants and not just sit behind a computer and TV.

Comes with water paint and markers and crayons....it's pretty cool! Also a pair of beginner roller blades....hmmmm what else?

They have some great toys.... I have girls BUT one toy that I LOVE to mess with too is Frigits.

It's addictive, goes on your fridge, so when I am cooking the girls are involved in the kitchen too and honestly the giggles and what you can invent hits all levels..... 5 :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: 's
