Toys for Babies?

Buying toys for babies can be a weird and confusing experience. Everything is sold as an “educational toy” that will “boost your baby’s brain development,” so how can you know what is actually a good toy? While the toy shelves at stores are often filled with flashing, singing, plastic toys, the reality is, babies don’t need much when it comes to toys.

Scarves have been a staple from around 4 months with E. And now that she is 6 months old, we are enjoying combining them with this bamboo Keurig pod holder.

We will set it up with multiple scarves poking through the holes and leave her to go at it. Reaching, pulling, knocking the whole thing over, it’ll keep her playing for at least 30 minutes!

I’m sure as she continues to grow, we will find lots of new uses for our scarves and “Keurig thingy” (as we call it in our house)

Sometimes simpler is really better.
