Baby toys

[Jo-anne]

Can anyone give me any advice on what toys I could get my seven week old baby to keep him stimulated/occupied that you found useful.

He has a swing and a bouncer but nothing is keeping him happy unless he is getting carried about for a look about.

A play mat or a play gym?

How about one of those little rattles which strap onto the wrist?

Frankie is 6 weeks and will spend up to 20 mins under her baby gym, I have two one from ELC and one from Mamas and Papas and i swap them around. Her favourite thing is the mirror and I put her directly underneath it, she spends ages smiling at the mirror baby and talking to her.

The other thing she likes are some bootees she has with rattles in. She wiggles her feet to make a noise!
