How many toys does a baby need?

I went to register yesterday and there are so many toys for babies! Any advice on what to get? I mean, how many different animal shaped rattles does a infant need?

    1 or 2 rattles/chew toys (C's faves were the Haba grippy/rattle ones)

    the toy bar for the infant seat seems popular

    activity mat is nice a few months in, for a few months

    we've been using our activity mat since we brought ds home at 5 days old. Also we got a lot of use out of the swing and bouncer. He's just now starting to like teethers and rattles and his exersaucer and jumperoo

    I wouldn't register for those types of toys, you'll get them as gifts without needing to register for them.  I have a million stuffed animals, rattles, toys to hang on the carseat, etc.  I didn't register for any of it.

    I'd stick to playmat, swing, etc. for your registry.  Same concept as clothes, you get a million without asking for them.

    register for minimal toys and clothes because people like to buy that kind of stuff regardless

    I agree with PPs - don't register for small toys - people will buy them anyway.  We did register for the activity mat, and a tummy time toy.  We bought a few things once we realized what DD really liked...
