Favorite toys

numbersgirl08 · December 2013

Everyone is asking me for a Christmas wish list for toys for N. I'm not sure what to ask for! What are your LOs favorite toys - or if you have an older one, what were some favorite toys/activities/etc in the 6-12 mo range that she can grow into?

Links are even more appreciated if you can find the toy on amazon or anywhere!

My LO loves the Eric carle toys at kohls. Lots of color, textures, and noises. She will gnaw on her little caterpillar for an hour, it's amazing.

For older we picked up stacking toys.

Cloth books that crinkle

Basically anything that can go in his mouth

I bought that elephant that pops balls out for DD. I know she won't be able to fully enjoy it but I think she'll get a kick out of it.

Great site @Stef1210! We have quite a few of these toys. It's amazing how entertaining those cheap links are! A must have. Plus I use them to attach toys to all his stroller straps, jumparoo, high chair straps, car seat, etc.

I just recently bought this for Ben and he loves it. He loves holding it and patting it to make it sing but also started rolling it a little. His face lights up when he plays with this ball.

@chicagochic82 No problem!

@funkypheonix I agree, those links are the most useful thing we own! And the photo of your LO with the ball on his head is priceless! Future soccer star, perhaps?

This is exactly what I needed!

Haha, maybe so! He actually did that himself. It was pretty funny.

ETA: and thank you
