Any infant toy recommendations?




alexis7310


I have a 6 month old daughter and I just recently began sitting for a 5 1/2 month old girl also.
I have all the big stuff (swing, jumparoo', entertainer, etc...) and lots of rattles, balls, stuffed animals...but am looking for other toys that might keep their interest longer and help them learn as well.

Any recommendations/links would be helpful!



Answer
I have an in-home daycare...currently I have 4 infants that range from 4 months to 11 months, here are the favorites:

The 6 months olds can close them easily, around 10 months they learn to open them also.

This is an expensive one but well worth the investment in my opinion...it keeps ages 6 months all the way to 4 years old occupied

Another big one, but it's great for kids around 6-10 months learning how to put things into other things, plus the balls themselves are entertainment :)

Great for crawlers, fun to chase :)

Pretty much any type of activity table is a must once they hit around 6-7 months, they are great for learning to stand and play

Well I could go on and on...I have a zillion toys and the kids love most of them...if you'd like more ideas let me know, I'd be happy to help!

Traveling with 4 month old infant. What should i know?




Mommy of 2


We are leaving monday for a 12 day trip. first for a week to grandma's house and then 5 days to Disney world. We are flying.

Any advice to come my 4m old on the plane? Any good info to know about traveling with a small infant?
To the comment on to young going to Disney. Yes i believe he is too young to understand Disney. However we plan out vacations a year in advance. It would have broken my 7 years old heart not to be going.



Answer
My best advice, after just traveling from NY to Greece with my 4mo: ask for the bulkhead seats and a bassinet. A life saver.

Bring extra clothes in your carry on for the baby. A few toys. Twice as many diapers as you would think, a kitchen garbage bag to cover the changing tables, ziplocs for dirty diapers and a blanket to cover the bassinet.

And Tylenol for you. ;-)
