an't get DD a big trampoline - what other big presents do you suggest?

Was going to buy DD an 8 foot trampoline for her 4th birthday next month. However, after realising that the legs are not adjustable and that the slope on our garden is more than we had realised I don't think it is feasable any more.

We have explained this to DD and told her she can have a small trampline still - my parents or brother will get her one.

However, we are now in a dilemma. What to buy a 4 year old little girl as her present? The trampoline was going to cost about £130.

We don't need things like swings and slides as we have a lovely park on the estate, about 3 minutes walk from here. She already has a play house in the garden too.

Any suggestions please?

couldn't you bury the legs and concrete in?

Does it have to cost this much? I don't spend this much on my dd (maybe I would if I could though, probably)

DD1 just got a scooter for her Birthday. A Pegasus one and she LOVES it, i think it's her best pressie ever she's never off it.
Also did her bed with the pegasus 4 poster canopy and you get a free toy box with it at the minute from Argos.

What other outdoor stuff do you have atm, thinking sandpit, ride ons etc. Ours love their scooters ! Even with a communal play area so close as they get bigger it is nice to be able to send them out to play in a safe, confined space where you can still keep an eye on them as you cook or chat on the phone so something like a climbing frame might be fun.

Zippi - just looked and don't think it is feasable at all :(

We already have: proper bike, scooter, play house, roller skates, big pram, and a paddling pool.

I thought about some form of ride on/electrical thing but not sure what.

Doesn't have to cost this amount, but it is roughly what we had expected to pay and what we have sitting and waiting IYSWIM.

Oh, she has a sand and water table too, as soon as I remember to bring it over from my parent's house!
