My daughter is almost TWO. If you bring it in to her (our, but she thinks it's her) house, it's fair game-she's going to touch it, and probably attempt to claim it. BUT when we are out in public, she doesn't touch things that aren't given to her (with the exception of clothes at the clothing store...she sees everyone else touching them, so it's hard to teach her why SHE shouldn't touch them).
I cannot imagine a FOUR year old who doesn't know better then to touch other people's things, but like ya'll have pointed out, we know where to look for that.
