Toys for 3 months old

Toys might be a grandiose term since she can't even grip anything yet Grin
But she is taking an interest in things. She likes batting the toys on her mobile and looking at sensory cards. She will lay on her activity mat looking in the mirror and the rattle toy for ages. Is there anything else you can recommend for a baby this little to keep them entertained?

Not a toy, but the Moredig room projectors are brilliant. I also recommend an inflatable water play mat for tummy time.

Any random stuff you have in the house will be interesting, remember she hasn’t seen anything before so a hairbrush or a spoon is just as interesting as a bought toy.
DD had loads of stuff but one of her favourite things was some dry pasta in a water bottle to shake!
One of those sensory balls that light up was fun, we used to turn the lights off and put it on a foil blanket to get reflections and have a bit of a baby rave with some music.

I made DD some sensory bags at about that age. Strong freezer bags, with things like shower gel and buttons or beads and rice (both of these were favourites) in them. Obviously needs close supervision as they are plastic bags, but she did enjoy them (for quite some time - they were still sometimes getting used when she was 12 months +).

Fabric building blocks - you can build a tower and knock it over etc

Crinkley fabric books. From about 4 months my son loved them.

Human faces, songs, lying under trees, baby gyms, foil blankets, maybe invest in a tuff tray for future help lay opportunities.
