Four-year old children are able to walk along a path, ride a bike and can even swim. They are more interested in paintings and drawings. They may try to move in a grown-up way but they are still not as strong as adults in terms of their structure.

Since your child is interested in arts, you can offer toys such as toy digital camera or music player. You can accompany your child outside your house and play with his camera. You can let him take pictures. Pictures taken from special toy cameras can be printed out. You can let them print the pictures them have taken. You should remember that most of the children take pictures of images that have a meaning for them. You can let them express their thoughts on why they choose the specific object to be taken. This toy is not only for him to be able to express his thoughts. This is also a good opportunity for him to enhance his skills in observing his environment.

One of the popular outdoor toys 4 year olds play is the dollhouse which is particularly for girls. You can let her set up her dollhouse outside your home especially if she has several sets of them. You can let her think of specific names of the streets or places within her dollhouses. This can help her use her imagination and express them verbally.

This can let him feel that it is as if he is really competing. After the race, you can teach him values such as sportsmanship. As early as 4 years old, he should be able to grasp the essence of accepting losses. You should also give him descriptive praises when he wins in the race. You can also start teaching him about traffic rules and road signs. You can concretely explain this further when you go out.  

Another good example of outdoor toys 4 year olds can play is the sports toy. You can start letting your child play this type of toy as early as 2 years old however, when he reaches the age of four, you can add more challenges to this. You can raise the board of basketball hoops and the like. If you are letting your child play baseball, you should let him take turns. You should let him feel how it is like to be a pitcher. You can record the goals he was able to score or how many times he was able to shoot the ball. This can give him the sense of success.
