Current fave toys/"toys"/activities??

What is your LO into these days?  Favorite toy?  Favorite household item turned into a toy?  General activity?

DD loves pulling stuff out of the tupperware cabinet.  She loves being outside - we go to the neighborhood park almost daily (sometimes 2X!) - except days like this when it's raining - she loves the playscape and going up the stairs and down the slide.  We've been going to baby yoga which basically gives her an hour to run around a secure room with other toddlers.  And she is OBSESSED with photo books (like from shutterfly).  They are in a stack in the living room and she often goes to them, points insistently, and then we sit together and go thru the books.  (She likes regular books a lot, too.)  She doesn't have any favorite actual toys right now, though sometimes she's entertained when *I* do silly things with her toys - she's just not interested in interacting with them herself.

I'm worried that i need to come up with some new indoor activities though.  It's starting to get hot and I'm not sure DD likes being outside in the heat as much (and I certainly don't).  So I need to find some new ways to entertain her indoors in the upcoming hot, hot summer months so I was wondering what all your LOs were up to!

DS is totally into talking on the phone right now. My mom bought him a play cell phone that makes noises and counts which he loves. However he will convert anything into a phone - remote control, his shoe, a coaster, a water bottle, you name it, he wil

Hmm..,well she just recently learned how to pull herself up into chairs, so
She does that all the time. Her favorite toys are my cell phone, my sunglasses, my keys, my hairbrush, the broom. She loves to get into everything that she is not allowed to

She is way into climbing right now.  She likes to count things.  Last week she decided she liked to put things away.  She loves rolling, throwing and bouncing balls.  She likes playing with trains, cars and trucks too.

My DD loves putting blocks in a cup and taking blocks out of a cup.  Repeat a thousand times.  Pictures are also a huge hit.  She likes playing with the little people nativity scene because the barn door opens and she can put the animals in

DS loves to get into the tupperware cabinet also.  He also loves climbing up and down stairs and his slide.  He has also started a new thing of opening one of the drawers in the bottom of the coffee table and then standing in the drawer to gi

DD loves "cooking" I give her a couple bowls, a tiny pot, wooden spoon, muffin tin, etc and she stands at the coffee table and "cooks" with them and then feeds her dolls/stuffed animals/me whatever she "made". 

She also loves being outside,
