Hi Everyone!
I am looking for a board game for DD (4) for christmas and I can't find one!
We already have the 'classics' (connect4/frustration/twister/kerplunk/guess who) and also have junior scrabble.
I have a DS (8) so they both play together nicely with these.
I have bought pictureka for DS but I need a game for DD also (I like them to have some similar pressies).
Any ideas?

Was going to ask this exact question! Am not sure about junior scrabble as I think that might be too old for her, so wait for others to reply.
In the meantime we have junior monopoly - DD 4 loves it, and so do the grandparents!!!Sept 2013 NSD 0/14 GC 0/£160 Flylady am 0/30 pm 0/300 -
