Toy Box Top 8

I am excited to kick off toy week this week!  With Christmas looming in my mind, I hope I can give you some ideas of what to buy the babies in your life!

L has a mountain of toys that we have accumulated throughout the year.  It is funny to me that she ends up playing with the same toys over and over again.  Her attention span never lasts very long, but if it keeps her entertained for more than 10 minutes, it is a success!  Here are the top 8 go-to toys at our house...


1.  Musical Monkey - Three-in-one!  The tail is a rattle, the blue ring is a teether, and the nose lights up and plays music.  She especially loved this toy from 0-6 months!



2.  Sophie - The lovefest has definitely simmered down between Sophie and L, but we couldn't live without Sophie those first 9 months.


3.  Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes - Baby Einstein is the jam!  L loved pushing the button to make the song change over and over again.  L was crazy about this one from 6-9 months.


4.  Plush Books with Tails - These books come in all different themes.  They are made of crinkly material,  have different textured tails, and bright colors.  L loves those features and I love the Velcro loop!  I can attach it to high chairs/car seats/grocery carts to keep L entertained on the go.  L has been entertained by this book since she was 4 months and still is today!


5.  My First Purse - This is the one we have, but they sell all sorts of them.  She loves to open it up and pull everything out.  The cell phone rings and there is a mirror on the compact that keeps her attention.  This is a  more recent favorite in our house!  Is it bad that she already knows to put the cell phone to her ear?  Is she trying to tell me something?



6.  Learning Walker - L's grandmother brought her this last time she was in town!  It is her favorite toy right now.  She loves pushing it around and around and around!  The music pad part comes off easily too, so she can use it flat on the ground.  She started playing with this around 10 months and it is a daily favorite.



7.  Stacking Cup Set  - I was shocked that she likes these.  They seem so boring, but she loves to knock them around and try to restack them.  We just started playing with these a couple weeks ago.


8.  Press N Go Inchworm - A family friend gave us this one.  She has 9 grandchildren, so I knew she knew what was up!  She did!  L can't really push it by herself yet, but we help her.  She loves chasing after it and it puts the biggest smile on her face!  A really fun family activity to send it back and forth between us.  I think we started playing with it around 9 months and still do today.




What were your baby's favorite toys?  Did they like any of these?
