Maybe it's my age, maybe it's that my oldest is a Senior, or maybe it's just God's way of making me slow down and "smell the roses" so to speak.My daughter, now 18, has struggled with some pretty serious learning disabilities in her life. I have yet to tell our story (book in the works) but after a very long journey she's…See More

"Yes, Christy, I agree that they don't need a lot of toys as new babies, but visual stimulation is very important for newborns. And yes, Michelle, even though these are the best ones for newborns, most babies will enjoy these toys long…"
"I few good quality toys are great - and even thought they don't stay newborn for long, many of the toys you mentioned are great for older babies too. My daughter loved her mobile and mirror until she was around 1 year old - we had moved the…"
