    4 is difficult,
    They're kind of growing out of a lot of stuff but are too small for the High Schol Musical etc stuff.
    Dora is a good idea, yeah. Also why not look at those MB games, like Elefun, Kerplunk, Twister etc.. Kids of all ages love those and adults can play with them if there are no other kiddies around.

    Just a thought:)

    A small jigsaw might do the trick too. You'll have to help her first time round, and the smile when she's finished it is priceless!

    My 4 year old niece is looking for anything pink/purple :)
    I took her to Smyths recently and she loved the Fur Real pets http://www.hasbro.com/furreal/en_US/
    You can get small versions of puppies, kittens, piglets,guinea pigs etc for about €20
    Go Go Hamsters are in HUGE demand this year

    Can you get something to go with whatever Santa is bringing. For example,he is bringing a lot of dolls houses this year so you could buy furniture.

    Go up to Hamleys. Anything thats pink & sparkly will do just the trick.

    Or IKEA do a gorgeous kids mirror range - My sister bought my daughter a beautifeul Hanzel & gretle style mirror with door that open & close. Just perfect & she loves it. & its not just another toy tossed away after christmas.

    Does anyone have any idea of any nice books that would go down well with a four year old girl. Maybe some novelty types, or popup or something.

    I'm buying for the four year old who has literally everything, tearing my hair out. Haven't seen many book lying around though:rolleyes:

    Any books by Julia Donaldson, but I reccomend that you start with "The Gruffalo".
    The books are excellent, Timeless! Guarentee she will love them and read them again and again
