I'm lurking from 3-6 months. FTM here - my DD has everything she needs right now, I'm wondering though if there are any items, toys, play things or neccessities you could recommend for your LO's age group. What does your LO use the most? Or you use for them? Is it any different than the 3-6 mo phase?
I want to get her some Christmas gifts (yes, I know she won't remember) but I love Christmas and can't imagine not getting her anything.
TIA
ETA: details
Re: best items for this phase
Ditto the teethers, stacking cups and shape sorters.
We also got DS an activity table which has been a HUGE hit since he learned to pull up. The legs come off so it sits on the floor for a LO who isn't pulling to standing yet.
ETA: A friend gave us this ball popper recently, and DS loves it, he giggles and gets all sort of excited everytime we turn it on!
DS is in love with bowls.
The "O" toy is good - easy to grab and it rattles.
DS also really likes teether toys that he can move around - links and such.

Ours *loves* these blocks. In a pile of toys, she'll gravitate to them and loves the sounds they make as well as their colors and the feel of them.

Definately Sophie (teether), don't know what I would've done without her. My DS just loves her and will sit and chew on her for a long time.
Jumperoo. He loves his jumperoo, plus it gives mommy some down time too!!
