Forget the toys we buy, Ava is happy playing with the ads from the newspaper and my dad's shoelaces. She is also extremely amused by my parent's dog. What are the little things that amuse your baby?
The dog for sure. Also, the mirror, we can't walk past one without him trying to look at himself. And, the bushes next to the driveway, every day after we pick him up from daycare, he tries to dive from our arms into the bushes.
It's kind of sad but we have very, very few toys for DS because he's so easy to entertain with everyday things! He loves magazines/paper, shoelaces on shoes, envelopes that have the cellophane windows on them (they make great noises when crumpled), straws, magnets on the refrigerator (we let him play with them while we're making dinner), pacifiers (he loves to play with 2 or 3 at a time), the vertical blinds on our patio slider, aluminum foil, empty cups... I could go on.

We have 2 50+ lb dogs....he is obsessed! Dogs walk in the room & he lights up. Also loves remotes, chip bags, clock that hands above.ciych, box that diaperscome in-we put him in the box w/ some toys & he loves it, loves mirrors, burp rags...yeah why buy toys huh lol
A lot of same things listed above. Newspaper ads, paper, water bottles, nutri-grain bar wrappers (shiny on one side and crinkles), my cell phone, the remote. Pretty much anything that isn't a baby toy.

All of the above. Also I give her an assortment of bathroom items while I'm getting ready. She loves my comb, mascara, lipgloss and hair ties. She can play for hours with these things if I let her.

I have a Droid phone and when you call someone a little green alien/droid creature pops up on it and stays on throughout the conversation. We call him "The Green Man" and DS is in LOVE with him. I talk to people on speaker phone at home, so he always see it. He starts smiling, reaching for the phone and kicking his legs when the Green Man pops up. Sometimes if he's upset, I'll call my voicemail a few times in a row so he can see the Green Man. Cheers him right up!

Feet. She will play with our feet if we're sitting on the couch and she's playing on the floor. My DH got her started on that though. She discovered that her Mickey Mouse has a tail, and now she is just fascinated by it. She still loves lights.

Anything that's black. And bonus points if it's shiny.
So my phone, my keyboard, my mouse, my work phone, and even the arm rests for my computer chair.
