DD is only 3 weeks but I am wondering when I should start encouraging her to play with toys.
When did your LO start showing an interest?
-
Properly playing, like making car sounds when playing with cars, not until after age 2.
I was more into sensory discovery, so I tried to choose toys and objects that had different textures, colors, etc in the first year.
-
C is 7 weeks and has only recently started staring at get toys, like the dangling ones on the play mat. At 3 weeks she didn't even notice them.
-
@Mrs Hedgehog: Around 6-8 weeks I bought her the sassy bugs that hang over the car seat and by about 12 weeks she would try to bat at them,
-
Sometime around 2 months (ish) she was interested in looking at toys and following them with her eyes. Right at 3 months she started trying to bat at them. Now at 18 months she fully plays with her toys, has favorites, uses them for their intended purpose, etc., but it's a long time coming to get to that point developmentally.
-
10-12 weeks or so, she started having a real interest.
-
I realized I started with toys kind of late. But at 6 months, went through a toy-buying phase, and she seemed to be interested in all of them! I think 3-4 months she started really batting and grabbing at her toy bar, activity gym, stroller toys.
-
I think around 4 months she actually started holding and looking at things with interest.
-
At six week, mine is just starting to actually look at the hanging toys on her activity mat or mobile.
-
She reached out and grabbed a toy for the first time when she was 12 weeks old.
Around 4 months she became obsessed with Sofie and started swatting at things that made noise, showing preference with some toys over others.
