Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best educational toys for a 4 year old boy?

At Wicked Uncle we have uncovered and tested some of the best toys which are both fun and educational. Whether it is robots, dinosaurs, microscopes, or construction kits, we have some of the best, most fun educational toys around!

What is the average height of a 4 year old boy?

The average height for a four year old boy is around 3ft 4.5 inches. It's important to bare in mind that children's heights can vary a lot plus they go through stages of growth spurts.

What is the best birthday gift for a 4 year old boy?

Boys at this age are increasing in their dexterity and so toys that help foster this are perfect. We have kits to make robots, games of musical freeze, rockets that they power themselves, and remote controlled gadgets. Our toys are fun for everyone and help kids learn more skills. Don't forget we can gift wrap and send directly to the birthday boy himself!

What is a typical 4 year old boy like?

Four year old boys are an energetic bunch. It seems like they're always on the move! At this age, they're eager to try new things, and they have lots of energy. (More than we do!). Gifts that get them outdoors and active, like stomp rockets and sports equipment, will always go over well. (Their tired parents will thank you!)
At four, most children enjoy singing, rhyming, and making up words. And they love to be silly! Help nurture their bright little minds with toys that are engaging and creative, like craft sets, musical instruments, and building blocks.

A typical four year old knows about 1,500 words. This is enough to answer simple questions and express their feelings, and it prepares them for phonics in kindergarten. But learning to read can be hard work! Do what you can to keep him enthusiastic about books. Read aloud from stories he'll find interesting, including non-fiction and books with more adventurous vocabularies. (Just maybe not 'War & Peace'. Save that for his fifth birthday.)

Four is sometimes called the "magic year" - partly because it seems like magic that they're finally in preschool and listening to grown-ups, and partly because it's the age where their imaginations start to run wild! It's common for kids this age to develop imaginary friends. This is a sign of a healthy imagination, and it can be a lot of fun to watch. Help them make believe with 'play pretend' toys - just don't be surprised if you have to buy a second toy for their imaginary friend!

Two Thumbs way up!

I received an item that in my opinion was subpar and emailed Wicked Uncle. I was told it was one of their best sellers over thepast 5 years and the representative inquired about whether I was operating it properly. When I advised her that I had rechecked everything she’d suggested and I was still disappointed with the item and wished to return it, she issued a full refund, including shipping. Based on that kind of service I immediately bought a different item to give as a gift. Professional, and honorable service. Two thumbs way up!

The items came within a few days of ordering but I wish that I had gotten notice of delivery. The package sat in my mailbox for a few days becauseI did not realize that it had arrived.Our Response:Hello, we do send out a tracking email with each order when it ships. Perhaps it landed in your junk/spam folder?

Excellent customer service

Update to my original 1-star review below: Changing my review to 5-stars due to stellar customer service in determining what happened to my order. The mistake was onthe part of the USPS and after speaking with them, the item arrived the next day. Wicked Uncle's customer service went above and beyond to help resolve the problem. Also, the plush corgi dog is well made and currently being loved by my daughter. Thank you! -------------------------------------------- This review is not about the item because I have not received it yet. This review is concerning the shipping and delivery. I ordered an item on July 1st for a birthday July 16th. I figured this would be plenty of time for it to arrive. Unfortunately, I assumed incorrectly as it is now late in the evening of July 15th and there is still no item. Tracking shows it has been sitting in the town where it needs to be delivered for NINE DAYS. I have lost all faith it will arrive in time for her birthday, what a waste. I understand delays can happen, but it has been over 2 weeks since it was shipped - unacceptable. I will not be ordering from this company in the future no matter what the quality of the gift turns out to be.
