Let me reword, what kind of toys to buy a 6 month old baby?

Tristens M

I just want to know what kind of toys, what toys you would buy a 6 month old baby? People are saying they wont know the difference for Christmas, and I understand that, but since I dont have a lot of money, this is the one time of year I will be able to buy my daughter some toys, so what kind should I get?

Answer
My daughter will be 5 1/2 month by christmas, so almost 6 months. I plan to buy her for toys:
---Baby Einstein "Push and pull toys" I can attach to her play mat----they have a lot of these at Target or walmart for affordable prices
----A couple of "Pat The bunny" type children's books---probably I'll get them at Barnes and Noble in the children's section. My daughter loves it when I read to her.
---some toys that squeak like rubber duckies etc.
---I'm considering getting a new mobile thing for her crib that hangs, this one I saw at Target plays music and is very decorative looking.
----a touch toy---something that when you touch it, it lights up and makes sounds, I'm not sure which one yet, but I'm thinking of the phone one for her.

I already have one of these, but you could also buy her a colorful "stacker" those pyramid-shaped things with colorful rings on them (I think thats what theyre called)---at walgreen's they have one that lights up when you touch them and plays music. It says 6 mons plus on it.


My dad already said he's going to get me an exersaucer for her. also another tip. maybe this sounds tacky, but when ppl ask me what I want for christmas, I say something for my daughter instead lol. like my mom asked what I wanted and I said an umbrella stroller lol.

what are some thinga/toys your baby had between the age if 6-12 months?

blush

my baby is 7 months and he has a few things, like a play mat with hanging animals that makes noises and sings, los of toys, a walker..
what type of things did you havee for your baby to help him/her start to crawl or pull himself up or just for fun that they loved?
thanx!

Answer
Hi

Toys that make music or any form of noise are favorites of babies. Toys with contrasting colors are really interestng to babies and help to stimulate the development of their vision. As they grow, infants use toys to explore object permanence and cause and effect relationships. They also need objects such as blocks to help them build motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

what is a good toy for a 6 month old baby girl?

stinkynach

so i'm going to visit my niece thats 6 months old and i would like to get her a toy or something. what would be appropriate for her at that age, but could also be used for a while. links please! im 14 so i cant spend too much.

Answer
My son's all-time favorite toy is this one. It was my best friend's son's favorite toy so she bought me one as well. My mother and I now give it as a gift for every baby shower. Other parents have raved about it as well.

It's very strange and a little annoying, but babies LOVE it.

Bright Starts Twisty Bug. Walmart, Target, etc. sell them for quite inexpensively. Stick price is $6, but worth $100 in my opinion for the hours of fun and amusement it has furnished. Comes with batteries.

Toys for 6 -7 month old?

softaiil95

What is your childs favorite toy. My daughter is in need of some new toys but I'm not sure with so much out there what to buy.

Answer
You probably have a lot of stuff around the house you can use......

Babies around this age love to knock down towers - so big soft blocks are good, or even leftover containers, or nesting cupts -all to build with. nesting cups are just a joy all of their own - I think they were my dd's favorite at that age, along with the stacking rings. If you don't own either of those already, they are worth buying.

A metal bowl with a wooden spoon is a great toy, also rattles (make your own with rice or cherrios in a container that closes securely)

A bowl full of small block sis also great fun, so they can take them out. I also fill and old purese with old toys and let her take those out too - great fun!

Looking into the future a bit, a beach ball or other ball that is easy to knock if fun for when they start scooting and crawling. They are also developing fine motor skills enough to press buttons - I know they make books that play a noise when you press the button, but just anything that has a few big buttons to push (or rather bat at, so don't get anything too complex)

now is also the time to bring out the stuffed animals and watch them babble at the toys in the most adorable manner possible. And then adorably try to bite the toy's head off, lol. But seriously, stuffed animals come into their won at this age.

Other "toys" my dd loves are a water bottle partially filled with water that she can try and pick up, also a plastic glass to suck on the rim off, also anything with a mirror that she can see herself in.

What are some good toys for a baby 3-6 months old?

W.C. Felch

Answer
Bright, colourful and tactile toys are good at this age. If your little one's teething, get some bright teethers, anything gummy. My 3 month old loves anything that dangles that he can bat at or grab, so if you haven't got a playmat/gym then that would be useful. Soft toys that can fit into his hand that can be put in baby's mouth without risk of choking are wonderful, and usually quite inexpensive because of their size. Babies have no need for huge stuffed animals at this point.

You can usually make a game out of household items at this age, without spending a fortune on toys. Things like bright plastic cups and mirrors, babies aren't looking at the brand label or price tag, they just love interesting looking things. I've bought so many toys and my son prefers to stare up at my sparkly lampshade most of the time!

6 months old baby question?

Q. I am starting to do a little Christmas shopping for my daughter who is 4 months old now, but she will be a day short of 6 months on Christmas day, so my questions is what was your 6 month old able to do? I mean like could they crawl,roll over,sit on their own, etc... I want to get her toys that she will be able to use at 6 months. Thanks.

Answer
I would say toys that light up and or make noise. Something she can bang on.
My 6 month old could sit up, roll over on her own. She could not crawl, but was close. She did get around by rolling or scooting.
Go to fisher price.com they have a good web site you can review the toy options.

What is a typical day for a 6 month old?

best toys babies 6 months up image

Q. My baby is turning 6 months in a few days. What is a typical day for a 6 month old? How do you spend time with them, how to you help them learn, how do they play, what things do they do? What is a healthy fun learning day for a 6 month old?

Answer
•Always look your baby directly in the eye when talking and interacting with him. Studies have shown that this assists language development and it can also help with discipline as your child becomes older!
•Support your baby emotionally when encountering strangers or new surroundings - let him warm up slowly if he is experiencing stranger anxiety. This encourages your baby to develop a happy and trusting view of the world
•Offer a variety of toys such as blocks, rattles, stacking toys, and books so your baby can practice developing her fine motor skills with his hands.
•Your baby most likely wants to put everything in his mouth. Provide plenty of safe, easy to clean toys for him to do this.
•Place interesting toys just out of reach to encourage your baby to move towards them. You can do this when your baby is sitting or on his tummy.
•Provide toys which make sounds when moved or squeezed as your baby is learning about cause and effect at this age
•As your baby begins to be confident at sitting he will want to grab at interesting objects. Make sure there are a few books and toys within easy reach so he can practice this skill
•Now that he is becoming more confident at grasping objects his hand-eye coordination will also improve. He will now be able to hold a toy and take a good long look at it by twisting and turning it in his hand. Provide a variety of toys which are easily held in his small hands.
•Babies love bubbles. By blowing bubbles he will improve his hand-eye coordination as he reaches out to pop them with his hands
•At this age babies also enjoy pop up toys. These toys also help develop strength and coordination in his arms.

What are your absolute favorite toys for 6-12 month olds?

Emmy Jo (1

Our son will be turning 6 months old tomorrow, and we want to get him a few new toys as a half birthday gift. What are your favorite toys for your 6-12 month old, and what do you love about them?

Answer
My son is 10 mos.
-He particularly likes anything with large wheels that he can turn. He has a large plastic truck with no small parts and a little train with a few cars (also no small parts). I like these because he'll spend a lot of time just turning the wheels, but then he can also push it around the room.
-He also likes things that makes a sound if you press one specific area (he has a dragon that burps--I've no idea who came up with that but it still cracks us both up!).
-Here's something that I can't describe, but he loved it especially around 6-8 mos. http://www.thinkgeek.com/geek-kids/b0a3/
-Another favorite are bathtime squirt toys like these: http://www.amazon.com/Elegant-Baby-Piece-Squirties-Vinyl/dp/B000G7WYNI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1278662459&sr=1-4 They're fun in the bath but he also enjoys carrying them around and blowing air at himself.
-There's also the "Scout" dog (and similar products). These are more expensive (ours was a gift), though still very affordable at around $20, and they can be programmed to talk to your child and say his name, plus you can choose songs and music that it "sings" which also can be personalized. I noticed that once we got it (at 5 mos) he started responding to his name quite a bit more and I think that it will later help him build a rudimentary vocabulary. http://www.amazon.com/LeapFrog-19156-My-Pal-Scout/dp/B001W30D2O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1278662573&sr=1-1
-Board books are also great. Our son doesn't care so much to be read to yet, but he likes turning the pages (and eating them). Later maybe we'll actually get him to pay attention to the words. :)

You didn't ask, but here are some "non-baby" baby toys that our son loves:
-a lightweight flashlight. It rolls, he can hold it and he's endlessly delighted with turning the light on and off
-a set of 'blank' keys. He used to play with our keys, but as soon as he became mobile we could never find them when we needed them. I went a hardware store and bought a few different keys (not carved to any specific design) and put them on a ring. He loves it and I know where my keys are now!
-a half-full bottle of water (tightly closed). It rolls, it reflects the light, makes sound. Our son learned to crawl chasing after a bottle of water.
-a small non-helium balloon (but of course only when supervised). My son loves this; he'll chase it around and he loves hitting himself (and others) with it.

Happy birthday to your son; if you haven't already, you should be starting to get more sleep soon. :)

How many toys should a baby have?

best toys babies 6 months up image

Ann

How many toys should babies of different ages have?
3 months?
6 months?
1 year?
2 year?

How do you decide how many toys is too many and how do you keep a baby stimulated without spoiling him or her?

Thanks!

Answer
Just make sure you have plenty, there's no set number they need. I wouldn't worry about spoiling them at that age, but an excessive number is a waste of space and money.
