Baby's favorite toy

We just got through her birthday and we have toys out the wazoo.  My friend asked me what she should get her, and I joked "empty tissue box, water bottles, plastic bag?"

As a joke, created these water bottles that had different things in it - one had dish soap, so when you shook it, it created bubbles, another one had glitter in it, and one had some kind of oil/water thing that separated.  Caps were superglued on.

Sure enough, Elena walks around all day with one in her hand.  She loves it! sigh

What is your baby's favorite toy these days?

    Anything that stacks so he can knock it down.  He loves pushing his car around making "car" sound.  The other thing he goes for every time is a toy I made... empty puffs container with a shape from his shape sorter in it.  Makes a great sound and a different sound if you shake it upside down.  He loves that thing.

    What a cute idea!  I'd have to say her favorites are the board & foam Sesame Street books I got from the $1 section at Target.  She also likes her Little People.

    That is really cute! I might try the bottle idea for DS. My LO never really showed preference over a toy so now I'm happy to finally see him show preference. He loves his table/piano he loves flicking the banjo handle he waddles side to side when the banjo starts to play. He's really into cars now, he grabs anything and moves it back and forth making a car sound and loves to run things over with his dump truck. And books, he could sit there for hours "reading" and pointing to the pictures.

    She likes anything that makes noise she can dance to.  She loves hitting her hippo thing just so she can dance.  I have been trying to keep more music on when we are home just because I hate hearing the same song over and over again.

    LO's favs are any type of ball. He walks around with them in his hand saying "ball" and than throws it, and than chases it and it warts all over.

    That's cute :) They're called sensory bottles and you can take them as far as the imagination will go! It's what I've done with a lot of left over bottles from NICU as well as some 2 L bottles (variety of 'fullness' for weights). Those one of his favorites. He also loves these large plastic dinosaurs we got for his birthday and cooking with things in his kitchen nook. For the bath he loves his Gabba foam toys!

    Right now, it's a balloon. They love that it rolls like a ball and is light and easy to throw into the air. It's been around since Mother's Day (it's not a helium balloon). I think they'll die when it finally pops.

    Oh, and they've always loved paper. Of any variety.

    The Little Tykes shopping cart is a big hit right now since she's getting really close to walking.

    She also loves my keys, my purse, my cell phone and the newspaper.
