Introduction to coding toys?

I'd like to buy my 4 year old daughter something for Christmas that will help her get her first handle on coding. There are a lot of different toys out there that advertise that's what they will do but I'd like to hear from people who have first hand experience with any of these.

Anybody have any experience or advice they can share?
