At 10 months it's one of her fav toys. She loves pulling up and standing now but at 6 months we just kept the legs off.</p> <p>She has always loved these balls. They were great when she was learning how to crawl but before that she loved picking them up, shaking and banging together. Now she likes putting them in and taking them out of boxes and bowls.</p> <p>Other toys she liked starting around that age were stacking cups, tambourine and musical shakers. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Einstein-Roller-Pillar-Activity/dp/B004G8QSXU" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Einstein-Roller-Pillar-Activity/dp/B004G8QSXU</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-toys-for-a-6-month-old#post-1703947 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 20:21:41 +0000 lawbee11 1703947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This one is great. They have it at our children's museum and LO was hooked from the moment she saw it (you'll probably have to pop them up for her at first). The best part is it doesn't require batteries and doesn't sing/make noise! </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Playskool-Busy-Poppin-Pals-Toy/dp/B00DSIQS6G" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Playskool-Busy-Poppin-Pals-Toy/dp/B00DSIQS6G</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-toys-for-a-6-month-old#post-1703905 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 19:55:04 +0000 Smurfette 1703905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Music table! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-toys-for-a-6-month-old#post-1703898 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 19:49:54 +0000 dolphin 1703898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second the musical table.

He spends his fussy period in there during the afternoon and it works like a charm. He loves splashing and chasing the toys around. Don't know if it's an option, but it's worked great for us so far! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-toys-for-a-6-month-old#post-1703529 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:49:53 +0000 loveisstrange 1703529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got C her music table at 8 months and she was really into it. You can set it right on the floor instead of using the legs for a smaller baby who cant stand yet.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/LeapFrog-Learn-Groove-Musical-Table/dp/B000ETRENI" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/LeapFrog-Learn-Groove-Musical-Table/dp/B000ETRENI</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-toys-for-a-6-month-old#post-1703522 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:46:45 +0000 PurplePeony 1703522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think DD is getting bored with the toys we have right now. We've basically got the Skip Hop treetop friends play gym, a few different O-Balls, a stacking owl (she can't put it back together yet but demolishing it is fun), and various rattles and teethers and stuffed animals. She also likes to play with her board books, picking them up and turning pages. But I feel like she's been getting frustrated lately and I want to get her some new, developmentally appropriate toys. I just feel like when I go to the store, the toys for her age range either look boring or too close to what we already have.</p> <p>They have this at daycare and she LOVES it, so I'm going to get one for home: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008MTYTWQ/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?ie=UTF8&#038;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008MTYTWQ/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?ie=UTF8&#038;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER</a></p> <p>I think this is technically still too old for her, but she'll probably like it anyway: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0001NEAB6/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_1?colid=1PH3KE9ZISZ5G&#038;coliid=I18WWQQV9H1GX6" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0001NEAB6/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_1?colid=1PH3KE9ZISZ5G&#038;coliid=I18WWQQV9H1GX6</a></p> <p>Does anyone have more suggestions? What did your LOs love at 6/7 months old? Toys she can grow into are fine, we just need to get some more variety here! </p>
