3 month toys

any advice on good toys for a 3 month old ?

Have you got an ativity mat? DD enjoyed one of those with the different textures, and sqeaky things on at that age. And another vote for a baby gym - we had the Fisher Price one which makes a toddler keyboard/piano afterwards. It had lots of tunes and flashy lights.

Thanks for messages. I have a baby gym and d2 loves it. When can they start to hold toys? It's been a long time since d1?

dd2 has a couple of musical toys - both VTECH I think, an apple (from woolworths) and a nursery rhyme book. Her little face lights up whenever she hears the music.

dd loved tactile toy at that age - the sort of soft toys with differnt fabrics on some of hwich would shine in the light, or have black/white stripes, and contain bells/rattles Lamaze style . Boots do a range as do Toys r Us - she had a caterpillar and ds had a mummy and baby tortoise.
Also anything musical - she got a Muzzart dog from vtech which still is in her bed 2 years later - can be set to play a lullaby if she cries - and a Fisher Price foot piano which again she still uses.

What about a baby safe mirror. I think ours mught have been a Fisher Price one. It stood up and made like a pyramid shape with a mirror on one side and other tactile bits around it. Most babies enjoy looking at themselves.
Also M&S do a lovely baby safe photo album which you could be put pictures of familiar people - mummy, daddy, nana and grandad, brother or sister and baby too. DD loves lookign at pictures (and still does).
