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!

What do 1 year olds play with?




...Karen..


my daughter is going to be 1 in about 2 weeks and we want to get her some blocks but what else do they play with. I am not going to spend 40.00 on some light up toy that doesnt teach her anything. She already has a whole book case of books from when I was a kid so now we are looking for developmental toys...ideas?


Answer
If you go to Target, they sell toys from the Parents series. Those are awesome! Very entertaining AND educational for infants and tots. :)
