This is a discussion on What are their favorite toys right now? within the August 2007 - Adorable August Armfulls forums, part of the Born in 2007 category; So what things are your babies playing with now?

I'm looking to find other, bigger toys for Owen to start playing with. We have a few toys still in boxes from Christmas but they are more for when he begins standing and can walk and push something.
I've got tons of little toys like soft blocks, teethers, rattles, and some little tikes cars that make noise that I put on the floor with him to play with but I feel like there should be something else.
Right now, Max's favorite is our remote control LOL If he sees it he will DIVE and throw a fit if we move it LOL
He still loves his jumperoo too, and plays in that for long periods of time LOL (his choice, he wants back in if we take him out)
giacomo LOVES his leap frog table... once they can pull up, it gives them something to do while on their feet.. my friends 18 month old was playing with it quite a bit too so hopefully itll entertain him for a while Developmental Learn and Groove Musical Table
beware, the music is obnoxious!!!!

Tobi has a large plastic tonka truck that he LOVES to push around in his knees. he can even stand up while holding onto it. We took it out about a few days ago and he loves it.
Other than that, just pulling up on th couch and tormenting his sister.. pulling ion her feet, her clothes yanking her hair.. LoL shes not as happy LoL
we need some new toys here too.. he gets bored of them quick!
Oh Dani- I want one of those things but was afraid Gracie would slide it out from underneath herself by leaning to hard on it. She still tends to use things for full support. Does it have some kind of grips on the bottom or does it slide (I got all tile floor except a big throw carpet in living room). If it holds up pretty good I'm getting one, she LOVES any kind of music- even my horrible no-toned squawking (dh begs me not to sing to her!)
danielle... it does slide..Giacomo uses it as a walker a lot, but funny enough it slides much slower than his push walker thing (he's cracked his head 100 times trying to use the push walker thing).. i guess you can put some sort of rubber on the bottom to hold it...
heres a video of him sliding it to give you an idea of how quick it moves haha YouTube - Giacomo

And I just bought this one about 2 weeks ago and Adrien LOVES it! He dances to the music, and kisses himself in the mirror. And it is sturdy enough for him to stand with it, because he doesnt sit anymore when he plays with things lol he has to stand. Little Superstar Sing Along Stage From Fisher Price
We also have the jungle train set, it isnt a huge toy, but it takes up some room. My friends aunt had this and her daughter is 28 months and STILL play with it, definately worth the money. Amazing Animals Sing & Go Choo Choo - Musical Zoo Train Toy

Kathleen's favorite toys are the dog's toys! I put her on the floor in the living room and she crawls right for his basket and starts pulling the nasty, ripped apart stuffed toys, she really likes his soft frizbee, she holds in between her hands and turns it like a stearing wheel. Then the best part is that she trys to give the toys to the dog, it's so cute!
But for her real toys, we still don't have a lot of big toys, just moslty stacking blocks and books and stuff. We did just buy a Fisher Price walker to wagon toy that she can stand behind and push now that she is walking with help. It still goes too fast for her, though, so we can't just let her go with it, we have to hold on to it or butt it up against something so it won't roll away from her.http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.c..._1998_28661113

Re: What are their favorite toys right now?
Ditto to the girls on the Leapfrog Table. They have one at her ped's office and she LOVES it. So, we're buying her one this weekend.
And the Superstar Sing Along Stage. We got this for Em for Easter and she LOVES it! It entertains her for long periods of time. Always a good thing for Momma! LOL
She also gets a kick out of this rocking horse my mom found for her at a garage sale, but she needs a lot of supervision and help with it
And anything that sings or lights up are still big hits in our house... the remote, the cordless phone, Momma's cell phone... LOL But we have this little radio shaped thing that plays music and has buttons to add a guitar, drums and piano. There's no maker name on it or anything, but I wish we knew where it came from because I'd buy one for my friends babies too. Em and my niece both LOVE it!
We're also on the search for "toddler toys" especially for outdoors because Em's definately figured out that some of her toys are too baby-ish! LOL
