If Colin does not have a tub full of Play-Doh plus something like the Fun Factory (where you can squish it through a tube into various shapes) or the Dr. Drill & Fill (where you can play dentist), he needs one. Some parents HATE Play-Doh and I've never understood this, since breaking out the Play-Doh kept my kids happily occupied for hours when they were in the 2-4 age range. Heck, I could probably buy them some fresh Play-Doh now for a couple of hours of nostalgic fun and they're 7 and 10.
Alex is old enough for real Legos and I would say something similar -- if she doesn't already have a basic set with a bunch of blocks, she needs some.
She would also probably enjoy the card game Set, if you haven't got it already. Also Quirkle.
