I would begin every morning with the greeting ritual and have them practice eye-contact.  You can also have them pass an object every morning.  Because they are 4 year olds I would also practice the self-control chant.  Along with this, a quick freeze dance activity so that student have the opportunity to move and get the wiggles out in order to start the day.  My students are a little older but, I have had them do freeze dance in the morning or a meditating ritual in the morning and that has really helped them to calm down and get ready for classwork.
