Fun and Games for Four-Year-Olds
At four, your little one is full of curiosity and clever ideas - sometimes a little too clever! One moment they’re asking big questions… the next, the cookie jar on the top shelf is mysteriously empty.
That’s why we’ve handpicked toys and games that are just as exciting as a cookie heist, but a whole lot safer! You’ll find clever educational games to stretch growing minds, build fine motor skills with creative junior arts and crafts, and action-packed outdoor adventures to burn off all that energy.
Safety is always at the heart of what we do. Many of our toys are BPA-free, machine washable, and carefully tested to the highest standards for your peace of mind. Just a heads-up: some products include small parts, so we recommend supervised play to keep things safe and fun.
Outdoor Toys: Four-year-olds love to move, and our outdoor games are the perfect way to keep them active! Whether they’re mastering their aim and hand eye coordination with the Flying Disc Challenge or bouncing around with Trampoline Tennis Mini, these toys bring big fun to the garden, park, or even the beach. They’re brilliant for building coordination, encouraging teamwork, and helping little ones burn off all that four-year-old energy - one giggle at a time!
Educational Toys: Learning through play is what four-year-olds do best, and our educational toys are designed to make every moment count. From mastering moves with Story Time Chess, to problem-solving on the go with the Brain Train, there’s plenty here to spark curiosity and build confidence. Got a little astronaut in the making? The wipe-clean Space Explorers Activity Book helps them practise early writing and counting skills while learning about space.
These clever toys support everything from critical thinking and spatial awareness to creativity, and make learning feel like an adventure.
Creative Toys: Rainy days or quiet moments? That’s when creativity takes centre stage. Whether they're sketching their favourite characters with the Paw Patrol Drawing Projector or inventing adventurous stories using the Rory’s Story Cubes Original Set, these toys turn imagination into hours of fun.
Creative play is a wonderful way for four-year-olds to express themselves, develop language and social skills, and explore the world through storytelling and make-believe. Who knows what ideas they'll dream up next?
