With a four year old you need a set that is easy to keep on the track we have one similar to this and if they go too fast the cars just spin round and go the other way, they do still fall off if you go way too fast but nowhere near as much. The cars are tough too as they are designed to crash into each other and with all the spinning, crashing and general crazy driving it is less competative so better for two boys of different ages. Mine are ten years apart and have lots of fun with scalextric.

If they've already got a Wii, how about the Skylanders game? My 9 and 6 year old boys have begged for this, so its been bought as a joint present......you could even get another set of characters and still be within budget? Not sure how to do links sorry, but if you google Skylanders, it'll come up Smile

I've just ordered this scaletrix set for DS

As it's half price I'm not so worried that he might not play with it all the time!

If you have any Clubcard vouchers you can use the double exchange and buy it with just £20 of vouchers.
