If we had only one musical\/battery toy, this would probably be it. She loves to stand so she&#8217;s at this table for much of the day, playing with all the different musical things. I also don&#8217;t find it too annoying either, which is nice. We got this used from someone local.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Fisher-Price-Learn-and-Sing-Teddy\/dp\/B0016LOTS6\/ref=sr_1_5?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1298135314&#038;sr=1-5\">Fisher-Price Learn &#038; Sing Teddy<\/a> &#8211; She got this at Christmas from my Aunt. She really loves the songs and lights! It took her a while to figure out that pressing a paw gets you a song, but now she&#8217;ll crawl over to it and play for a while. Be warned, the songs are incredibly catchy! Den and I find ourselves singing them. :)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Fisher-Price-Brilliant-Basics-Babys-Blocks\/dp\/B000LSZVKA\/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1298135423&#038;sr=1-1\">Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Baby&#8217;s First Blocks<\/a> &#8211; It looks so simple, but she really loves these blocks! Yes, the lid is promptly removed and chucked to the side, but the bin and the blocks she spends a lot of time playing with. Now she&#8217;s been batting the blocks around, crawling after them as they roll.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Melissa-Doug-Deluxe-First-Bead\/dp\/B000SONEQA\/ref=sr_1_13?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1298135514&#038;sr=1-13\">Melissa &#038; Doug Deluxe First Bead Maze<\/a> &#8211; I really wanted a bead maze for her, but didn&#8217;t want a huge one yet, so her grandma got her this little one. She likes the beads and often just picks it up and shakes it around. As a bonus, it has suction cups on the bottom to stick to her highchair to amuse her. Unfortunately it doesn&#8217;t hold her attention very long, though.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Fisher-Price-Peek-a-Blocks-Press-Go-Train\/dp\/B0000D12WU\/ref=sr_1_7?s=toys-and-games&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1298135779&#038;sr=1-7\">Fisher Price Peek-a-blocks Train<\/a> &#8211; My parents got her this because my dad is a train hobbyist. She LOVES it. She doesn&#8217;t care about the blocks, just the train&#8230; she pushes the button for the song and lights and to play with the moving wheels. She&#8217;s now starting to push it around a little. (That Amazon listing is a CRAZY price, though&#8230; not sure where they got it, but I am positive it wasn&#8217;t half that much!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.toysrus.com\/product\/index.jsp?productId=4449508\">Safety 1st Sound &#8216;n Lights Activity Walker<\/a> &#8211; This was a great big Fail. First, the lowest setting was WAY too high. Den had to cut more notches into the mechanism! Second we bought it too late. She caught on quickly, but just gets uber pissed when she can&#8217;t reach things. Her favorite thing to do now is to climb the outside of it&#8230;. not exactly safe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.toysrus.com\/product\/index.jsp?productId=10860230\">Fisher Price Brilliant Basics Musical Activity Walker<\/a> &#8211; Just bought this yesterday. She&#8217;s still figuring it out, but she&#8217;s very excited at being able to walk &#8220;by herself.&#8221; She just at the age where she doesn&#8217;t need to lean on things, she just needs some balance support. This is way better than the other walker because she can sit down, crawl away, and come back to it whenever she wants to.<\/p>\n<p>She also loves her touch-and-feel books. Other board books are okay, but she loves the touchy ones!<\/p>\n<p>So tell me&#8230;. what are your kids favorite toys? Give me some ideas for her birthday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m just going to quickly run through the toys that she has and uses.
