DS is 4 has autism and his latest obsession is Robin Hood. I've got him a foam bow and arrow but wondered if anyone had any idea on what else I could get him? I thought maybe a costume but wondered if there was any sort of playmobil type thing that might have a Robin Hood feel or something along those lines.

I found that set ^ too and a couple of old ones on eBay.
The eBay ones had sold but you might be able to track some down.

You can get Robin Hood Funko Pops I think they are based on the series where Robin Hood was a fox. You could get that on DVD as well.

What a great interest. Fisher Price did some Robin Hood playsets years ago (Imaginext style ones) - they come up on eBay.

Or maybe a toy castle with a drawbridge with some Robin Hood / Medieval figures?

There’s a nice Robin Hood yoto card too

When my son was castle obsessed when little he wanted something that was no longer being made. I found a used one on eBay and left it with a note from Santa saying the elves didn't make it anymore but they'd found the prototype of the original in a cupboard and thought he'd still like it even though a few thinks had been lost in the work shop.
He was even more impressed with the "prototype" and I paid £9.00 instead of the £200+ for a new one.

Can you bring him to an archery class as a treat?

Thank you for all of the brilliant ideas. He ready has the yoto card @User236792 which he listens to every day. He loves the cbeebies panto of robin hood too and knows all of the songs and dance moves!

I've bid on a second hand vintage playmobil outlaws set on Ebay and I might try and get a castle set on there too on something along those lines.

There is a Robin Hood pantomime in one of the local theatres at Christmas near me but I'm not sure if he's too young to go or if he might find it too noisy/busy.

A Robin Hood Panto would be brilliant.

Do they have any adapted showings (sorry I'm not sure what they are called) where it isn't as noisy etc and everyone accepts that the children may not sit quietly throughout?

Alternatively every amateur dramatic show we have been to seems to be more accepting of additional needs and a lot cheaper so if you need to leave it hasn't wasted as much money iyswim.

Could you find or make a money bag of some sort (drawstring, maybe velvet) and fill it with chocolate coins?
