This article lists three toys for babies or toddlers of various ages. Each toy includes materials that are durable enough to last yet light enough to move from room to room. These toys were initially recommended to me by my colleague who manages a website that reviews interactive and creative activities for babies. The founder of this site is a friend of mine and she and I have come up with our top three. Each of the following toys were well-researched to ensure they combine fun and new lessons each time they are played with.
Tiny Love Musical Nature Car Seat Toy
The Tiny Love Musical Nature Car Seat Toy is a highly engaging developmental toy that goes where baby goes. The toy grows with your baby with 2 modes for age 0 to 3 months (batting and swinging) and from 3 months and up (pulling and pushing). Tiny Love is a trusted toy manufacturer who specializes in creating entertaining and stimulating activities for 6 month old babies and up. The Tiny Love Musical Nature Car Seat Toy easily adjusts to different angles depending on your baby’s size. Unlike many car seat toys, there are plenty of features to delight including a lion prism, a parrot rattler and soft teether for developing baby’s gums.
