That thing is awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169418 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:20:36 +0000 jessibear 1169418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a really hard time finding toys to keep C's interest. She was really into My Pal Violet for awhile, but not so much now. We just got the Zany Zoo and it does keep her busy for a long time. She also just started loving her jumperoo. </p> <p>Her favorite toys are shoes, diapers and remotes, I don't know why I bother with anything else! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169406 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:15:24 +0000 Ginabean3 1169406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: thanks!

Meowsic piano<br /> - Fisher Price Go Baby Go Poppity Pop Musical Dino: We were gifted this one and I just opened it last week. Haven't even put in batteries yet, but she loves to play with the balls and put things in/take things out.<br /> - Fisher Price Stack and Roll Cups</p> <p>I went through a toy-buying phase last month after realizing DD didn't have much. She loves the variety for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169316 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:32:41 +0000 lawbee11 1169316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were gifted this Leap Frog My Pal Violet. We haven't used it yet as LO is only 2 months old, but I've heard great things about it!</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0080M1GVM" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0080M1GVM</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169298 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:27:28 +0000 MamaJ 1169298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have stacking cups? DS loves them. I've had them since he was 5 months or so and they are still his favorite toy at 10.5 months. They were less than $5 too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169267 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:20:35 +0000 mrskc 1169267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This cone sorter is a favorite. He likes to take it apart. Plus I have fun stacking it all different ways for him to destroy. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Plan-Toys-Preschool-Cone-Sorting/dp/B0078FBSMY/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1382559459&#038;sr=8-1-fkmr1&#038;keywords=plan+toys+cone+sorter" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Plan-Toys-Preschool-Cone-Sorting/dp/B0078FBSMY/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1382559459&#038;sr=8-1-fkmr1&#038;keywords=plan+toys+cone+sorter</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169264 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:19:37 +0000 cascademom 1169264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seconding the musical table. It's still the most consistent toy that LO plays with at 14 months old. Little soft toys appeal to LO to throw them around. Sounds bad, but he loves to throw around knit sushi and other stuff. My LO loves electronics like his dad, so he has his own play keyboard and drags an extra mouse around. All of the stuff on DH's area is so appealing to our dude. Sometimes I wonder why I even buy toys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169245 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:16:17 +0000 winniebee 1169245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Activity cube<br /> Leap Frog musical table<br /> Wooden blocks<br /> Musical Drum<br /> Little People<br /> Cars/Trucks<br /> Shape Sorter<br /> Stacker </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169241 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:15:21 +0000 mrsjyw 1169241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ginabean3: i always forget about them too, until i see a post like this come up! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toys-for-a-8-month-old-help#post-1169236 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 15:14:54 +0000 Ginabean3 1169236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: Thank you!

And she gets interaction with other babies during mommy group.</p> <p>I'm looking for things that will keep her interested when she has independent play time.</p> <p>Here's what we already have:</p> <p>Some rattles<br /> Some Leapster toys that sing/play music when you press buttons<br /> Tons of stuffed animals (which she doesn't care for)<br /> Crinkly books<br /> A playmat with things hanging from it (she likes grabbing at them when she is laying down but I don't like her laying down all the time, especially when she can sit up now)</p> <p>What else? Help me so I can go on an Amazon toy shopping spree. Haha. :-) </p>
