Our neighbor is turning 4 and we're invited to her party. What do 4 year old kids like? What are they capable of doing? Lacing books, painting, making bead jewelry? I guess I could call her mom and ask what she likes, but I'd like to get something "educational" as opposed to a Disney Princesses book or the like. My DD is only 2 so I am clueless. Thanks :)

well i have a four year old dd and i'll tell you what her favorites are. she likes anything by my little pony, care bears, anything to do with animals (right now she wants a wooden animal barn and animals), she *loves* her baby doll (soft like pbk has) with the little moses basket it came with, anything play kitchen related, paints are a big favorite and groovy girls.

she isn't into making jewelry yet but any kind of art kit like color by numbers etc is a big hit.

Oooh, maybe I can find a paint by numbers Care Bears kit. That would be so cute and fun! Thanks for the ideas :)

My four year old niece is really into anything "art," dressing up, and Madeline (the books as well as the dolls). Painting supplies / felt pens / water colors would be a cool gift, I think.
