I know this is SO I know this is SO unoriginal, but you can't miss with Brio train stuff with kids that age. We still have every damn overpriced piece of track, and DS10 will still haul it out from time to time.

By Gazpacho at Fri, 09/16/2005 - 1:56am | login or register to post comments Not so original but my Not so original but my Jasper LOVED Lego when he hit 4. It can be hard to find sets that aren't based on movies or cartoons (grrrr) but they're out there. Magic School Bus anything. Space seems to be big with most kids. We have a zillion glow in the dark stars and planets that look like they do through a microscope in the boys' room. Throw in a cheap black light and you're a hit. And beading kits with some super-excellent beads. They love it and will probably make you something beautiful. Jazz is into sea theme beads right now but he always goes back to wood or colourful glass and clay. Games are big- Kerplunk and Snakes and Ladders get used alot because the little brother can play but Jasper's favourite is chess. Any help? By rudi at Thu, 09/15/2005 - 3:35am | login or register to post comments I think the beading kit I think the beading kit idea sounds awesome. He's a crafty little guy. Thank you so much. BTW...love his name. I never thought about "Jazz" as a nickname, but my friend started calling my Jasper that last week. That's so hot. *giggle By Jaspersmama at Thu, 09/15/2005 - 3:45am | login or register to post comments Hmm... Lets see. Books (this is one of my favorite book publisher Barefoot Books ), puzzles, model airplanes (age appropriate of course) Frisbees (They make some really cool ones nowadays) Oh and hpmerry's specialty, a hand made super hero cape! ---- When I Die, I Want To Sail Off On A Friendship ---- By redmomma at Thu, 09/15/2005 - 3:22am | login or register to post comments Hey Mama, I checked out the Hey Mama, I checked out the Barefoot Books site.
