Welcome to the fifth in our series of Christmas Gift Guides. If you missed our 0-1, 1-2, and 2-3 guides as well as our books and stockings guides, do check them out. Three to four year olds are at that wonderful preschool stage where their imaginations are really starting to take off, with an increasing amount of time being devoted to role play and small world.
