Favorite toys for your LO?

What are your LO's favorite toys at 7-12 months?

What toys do you have that they don't use, that don't hold up well, or that you find totally annoying?

TIA!

He loves his push dog that sings and the nose lights up. 

But honestly, and I just posted this on Facebook tonight, he enjoys household things so much more!!  I let him have the mop tonight, and he seriously played with it, mopping, for 30 minutes!  He then went over to the newspaper insert (a big paper magazine), and flipped the pages looking for "doggies" forever!  Oh, and pushing the step stool around will give him hours of fun throughout the day.  And rolling cans of veggies on the kitchen floor too.  I just give him access to these things and let him have at it!

DD isn't so interested in the sounds and lights. As PPs said, she's into basic things. Blocks, stacking cups, books, bead maze, paper towel tube, ball, linking rings, still likes her Sophie.
