Answer
Think about the end of the world in 2012! Kidding! I don't believe in that crap! Try reading a good book. I recommend the inheritance cycle (eragon, eldest, brisingr.) as it keeps you going for a while!

Answer
Ask your librarian to help you find some really wonderful read-alound books.
Put on music and dance.
Make a batch of homemade play dough. Here's a great recipe:

Play hide and seek, play hide and seek with a stuffed animal (they try to find it), or hide a set of items (buttons, pennies, plastic coins, toy dinosaurs - whatever you've got!) around the room or yard for a "treasure hunt".
Draw with crayons.
Use a sheet to make a tent under a table. Play with flashlights.
Go on a nature walk or explore the yard. Most four-year-olds love to look for bugs or worms.
Collect some cardboard boxes to decorate and turn into forts, train cars, rocket ships, or almost anything else.
Go outside and blow bubbles or draw with sidewalk chalk.
Set up a little obstacle course around the house.
Bake cookies.
Play simple board games, such as Connect Four, Guess Who, Candy Land, and Hungry Hippos, matching games, or card games like Uno.
Build with blocks or Lego. If you don't have anything to build with, roll sheets of newspaper into long tubes and use masking tape to join the tubes to make structures.
Let them help with simple chores like folding towels and washing low windows.
Set up simple games using what you have on-hand, such as tossing rolled socks into a laundry basket or "bowling" with empty plastic bottles.
Fill a dish tub or other large container with water and place it on a towel to catch any drips. Give them measuring cups, funnels, whisks, and other gadgets to play with in the water. You can also add a little food coloring, baby shampoo, or ice cubes for variety.
Squeeze some shaving cream out onto the table. They can use their fingers to draw and write in the foam. It makes the room smell great and it wipes away easily when they are done.
Line up chairs in a row to play bus or train.
Tell stories together. Write down stories that they tell you so that they can make their own books.
Please skip the worksheets. They'll be drowning in them soon enough in school, and they really are a bore! Plus, it is hard to find a worksheet that meets each child's needs - they all learn at their own speed at this age, so the sheets are likely to be too hard for some and too easy for others.
