Re: 7 Month Old What to play with ?
It depends on what you want baby to learn. My doc recommended lots of Bumbo and tummy time to help LO develop the muscles to crawl. If you want to develop jumping/leg strength or just entertain baby for short periods of time the Jumperoo is great.
If you are looking for entertainment, my Lo really started enjoying being sat in front of a bucket of small new objects to explore at that age. Safe things like plastic measuring spoons, rattles, baby keys, etc.
DS actually enjoys sitting up by himself and plays with stacking cups - he'll bang them individually, bang them together, eat them etc. When he's on his tummy, I'll stack the cups to make it a tall tower - and encourage DS to crawl towards the tower to knock the cups over.
We have a jumperoo and DS enjoys it, but he's never a big jumper. Most of the time he just sits in there and plays with the toy.
We also have the FP musical table. DS likes to bang on the different buttons to get music & lights going. The legs of the table come off so we have it on the floor.

We have the Baby Einstein Jumperoo, my lil guy loves it. He doesn't really use the jumping function but he loves playing with all the toys. It also has hooks to hang your own toys off it, we change up the toys every week or so.
For increasing mobility, I don't really have any toy recommendations but a lot of floor time will help with this. My DS loves to zero in on the items he isn't supposed to play with and zooms across the floor to them, paper, extension cord, remote control etc. Even though we baby proofed it is amazing what he can find to get into.
His favorite toys at the moment are Sophie, Fisher Price stacker rings and an Infantino toy barn.
