What are our lo's playing with?
I feel like Max doesn't have many toys but im stumped as to what to buy him. He's 21 weeks and currently has:
-playmat
-jumperoo
-a teddy and a caterpiller that plays music, counting etc
-lots of cuddly toys
-a couple of rattles
-books
He used to love his playmat and i could leave him on it for 30mins without him getting bored but i think he's outgrown it now that he's rolling and wanting to put everything in his mouth. He loves the jumperoo but i don't put him in there for long as his head is still a little wobbly. His favourite 'toy' is me and his daddy, he loves us singing/dancing around with him but it gets exhausting!!
What are your lo's enjoying?xx

Board books, to be chewed on as much as read.
A rattle that can double as a teether.
Sitting in his pram and watching leaves/people/the world go by.
A red silk good luck token from China.
The bath sponge.
Mummy's hair and Daddy's glasses.
Shrieking at the top of his lungs.
And, best of all, weaning spoons and a plastic cup while sitting in his highchair. The cup is the best as it can be banged hard on the tray and flung on the floor with a thoroughly satisfactory bang.
(Mummy has a permanent headache for some reason...
I'm trying to introduce him to his feet at the moment with limited success. Hopefully he will go back to enjoying to rather more traditional toys once his teeth start coming through...
Like your lo's, Amelia likes you to play with her, which can be tiring.
She has:
- Playmat - but gets bored and watches tv instead
- cuddly toys which she'll wrestle with (oh did say, ahh look at her cuddling with adam the adder - she was rolling on it chewings it eyes!!!)
- musical cube which we have to roll around for her as she's not mastered this
- jumperoo but we have to pull her legs to get her to bounce
- a play station thing which has all things she can turn and press, it plays music when she moves something
- books etc
I think you can see she likes us to play too!!
Ooh, her favourite thing is being thrown around on the bed - I'm sure she's going to be one of those wwf wrestlers!! my little girl isn't very girly!!!
He also loves just lying on his changing mat and either talking to us or watching TV.
After about an hour of being awake though he gets ratty and tired and likes to be carried around the house looking t everything over my shoulder. He likes looking at me and him in the mirror too!
