I am looking for a small toy for my 4 year old son he finds it hard to sit still and concentrate especially at church!! haha. He is much better if he has something in his hands to play with. Does anyone know of a small toy (quiet one) that would be good for him to play with I was thinking rubix cube???

Churches have to accept that kids make noise. If they want families there, they have to put up with it! The old dears love it imo. Could always try and palm you DS off on one of them!!

Whatever toys you choose to bring, make sure you put them in a little ruck sack for him so he can take them out and put them away himself, ie wasting a bit more time. Also don't make the toys available to him during the week, so he's really excited by them. You need a hove a little kid's bible in there, the preacher will love that!
