Toys for newborn

Hi all
I am shopping for our first baby due next month. I have a lot of the practical stuff but am now onto toys! What will be useful for a newborn or the early weeks?

Here is what I am considering for now:
Sensory cards/ black and white book
Wrist and feet rattles
Playmat with toys above head
Mobile for crib
Spiral toy for pram/ pushchair
Bouncer
Comforter-I know to get two of the same but when do you actually let the baby have them?

I have an Ollie owl for white noise. It looks like a lot of things for a small baby but I would prefer he had everything needed for his development without over stimulating him. Does anyone have anything to add or remove?

@PivotPivotmakingmargaritas has the right idea. Buy yourself some airpods!

Bless you. You don't need toys at all for a few months. Save your pennies for now.

How about a sensory play set? Tor's Story have a lovely gift set for newborns and another for older babies. It will have most of the things you mentioned x www.torsstory.com
