A few days ago Lola brought us a great guide with ideas to give to babies under 6 months. Today we will continue with the guide offering some ideas for babies 6 to 12 months.
Between six and twelve months there are many changes in babies, they start to turn around and play with the things that are on the floor, to sit and even stand. Their motor coordination is getting better and gradually they take things "roughly", with their whole hands, to make the so-called upper and lower calipers, in which the use of the thumb (making a clamp with the index) It increases accuracy when picking up objects and playing with them.
Language and logic also begin to develop and that is why it can be interesting look for funny toys, to serve as a stimulus to learn new things (or just be fun and period). Let's see what toys could be a good choice for children of this age.
Bilingual learning table
It is called a bilingual table because it has Spanish and English as its languages. It consists of 4 characters (and faces), one for each activity, which are illuminated to get the baby's attention.
The table has 4 main activities with different games in each of them: it consists of a telephone, a computer, a book and a piano.
The baby can move from one activity to another as he prefers and, in fact, it is the same table that alerts the child when he stops playing (I imagine this values him when the baby has not touched the table for a while) to call him the attention to new games and to go around the table going to the next activity.
It costs about 53 euros approximately and has the peculiarity that table legs are optional (Many people do not wear them so that the baby has within reach all the possibilities offered by this toy).
Stroller book "My farm animals"
This beautiful book can help children entertain themselves for a little while in the stroller or in the car seat. It has a self-adhesive clip with the head of a pig and several pages with the most representative animals of a farm.
It costs 8.45 euros and you can find it in Kinuma.
Eva Hop Hop rubber mat
It is a foam carpet (also called eva rubber) rubber eva by Playspot, similar to the typical letter puzzles of the same material, but with a more modern design.
It consists of a total of 20 pieces that make up an area of 182.88 cm × 137.16 cm.
I have put it because in my house we have two covering the entire floor of the so-called "play room", and it is wonderful, because lChildren play, barefoot, crawl, fall without hurting themselves and toys do not damage the ground or disturb the neighbors when they fall.
This model costs 69.99 euros (not cheap) and can be obtained at Chimi's swim.
Rattle-teether with colored balls
Nothing better to stimulate your attention, your ear and your touch than a teether rattle made of colored balls. The balls collide with each other while the baby manipulates it, sucks it, bites it and passes it from one hand to the other.
This beautiful rattle and teether costs 10 euros and we have seen it in play.
Game blanket BbCosmos playbaby VOYAGE
The blankets that help develop the psychomotor skills of babies are those whose activities are on the ground. This makes them have to turn or move laterally to see what they are doing and to be able to play with the possibilities that the blankets offer them.
This blanket consists of 9 spaces with colorful drawings that offer the baby sounds and textures for him to experiment.
For lovers of order, it has two strips with buttons to keep it rolled.
It is from Imaginarium and costs 37.90 euros.
My first piano "Little Superstar"
A piano for babies, with large keys that light up. When a key is pressed, one of the three instruments on the piano moves. There are different game modes that can be selected by turning the page in the book on the keys (as if it were a book of musical compositions).
It costs about 30 euros and is from Fisher Price, so it can be found in toy stores.
HABA vegetable set
It is a set of vegetables freshly picked from the garden so that the baby can bite, squeeze and punch.
The carrot and tomato have a rattle and the salad is crispy (like the real ones). To give you an idea of the size of the same tell you that the carrot is about 12 cm long.
The set of vegetables costs 9.99 euros and you can find it in Natura Culture.
Lamaze ring pyramid
Pyramid with rings that can be removed and stacked. Once the rings are on, the toy spins and emits music. Each ring is also an independent toy with motifs of different colors and textures.
It costs 24.99 euros and can be obtained in Mini Territory.
Gusy Light Baby
This is one of those mythical toys that many parents give affectionately to their children because they also had them in their childhood.
There is not much to say about the Gusy Light, it lights up when you squeeze your belly and turns off when you let go. It has two faces, awake and asleep, that alternate by moving the hat forward or backward (one face is covered and the other is uncovered).
It costs about 17,40 euros and can be obtained in Jardinitis
