Ideas for 4 yr old dd birthday

Am really struggling this year as to what to get. Have grandparents asking too so apart from the usual books and clothes, can anyone suggest something they know will be a winner. She already has scooter and bike as they would have been obvious choices as she is a summer baby.

thanks

If she is a summer baby I'd definitely go for outside things. Great time of year to have a b'day - 6 months apart from Christmas. My DS has b'day in June and it's great (really envious of him, being November myself!)

Anyway, in the past we have done some of these + some more ideas here: Paddling pool, water slide, ball pit, picnic table & chairs (kids sized) Gardening tools & flower pots for him to plant (sinflowers/tomatoes etc). Swingball, seesaw, trampoline, hula hoops, water pistols...I could go on?! Anything here sound like something she might like?

I think basic metal climbing frames are much under-rated!

dd is also 4 soon as we have got swing and slide for the garden, my little pony set (she has been banging on about it for AGES!) and some Lelli Kelly trainers which she has also been going on about for AGES!!! Well, actually she wants the sandels, but I refuse to pay £40 on something that will only last a few months and probably not get that much wear with our weather!!

I have told everyone to choose something themselves as we have no list! It's much more fun that way!
