Fisher-Price Deluxe JumperooFisher-Price Deluxe Jumperoo
LOVES IT! Used it from 8-weeks old until he was 6.5-months old (he was a big baby and stood early, so he grew into and out of toys early). Once he got more interactive with toys he moved onto an exersaucer and this got little attention. But it was one of the best buys we made early on - hours and hours of entertainment!
Fisher-Price Infant-To-Toddler Rocker in Blue/RedFisher-Price Infant-To-Toddler Rocker in Blue/Red
LOVES IT! This chair is great because it's the only one out there that has such a big weight range. Grant grew out of his bouncer VERY early on (at 4-months) since it only went to 18 lbs. We've been using this one ever since.

Buy new: $119.99
LOVES IT! Favorite hangout from day one until he was about 6 months old and became too interactive to hang out in it anymore. Lifesaver in the beginning since it put him to sleep.

Buy new: $34.97
LOVES IT! When he could not sit/stand he used it with the legs off. Once he could sit we used it easel-style with two legs on. And once he could stand he used it as a table. One of his all time favorites!!!

LeapFrog Discovery BallLeapFrog Discovery Ball
Buy new: $79.99
LOVES IT! Became a favorite when he could sit up - he was fascinated that he could sit and hit it and it would spin. Growing with him - now it's off the base and he crawls after it.

Buy new: $12.19
LOVES IT! And, thankfully, they're not electronic and don't make music... A quiet classic.
Sassy: Baby ScissorsSassy: Baby Scissors
Buy new: $4.99
LOVES IT! Ok, not a toy. But they are great baby scissors. Clippers scare me for a baby, so I use these and follow with a nail file to smooth any sharp edges.
Sassy Bumble Bites TeetherSassy Bumble Bites Teether
Buy new: $8.99
LOVES IT! His favorite teether since he started teething (first teeth at 5 months). Easy to grab, loves the vibration on his gums. Always comes with us whenever we go out.

Buy used from: $22.98
LOVES IT! Volumes 1, 2, and 3 are all great. We sing and dance to the songs and we bring the cd's with us in the car - the minute he gets fussy we turn on his music and he becomes all smiles.
Baby Einstein Seek & Discover Activity GymBaby Einstein Seek & Discover Activity Gym
Buy new: $169.99
LIKES IT. Great when he was very young; kept him entertained, but mainly when we played with it along with him. Still, seems to be one of the best out there.
LeapFrog Learn & Groove Alphabet DrumLeapFrog Learn & Groove Alphabet Drum
Buy new: $19.97
LIKES IT. Almost loves it. It's one where he'll get bored with it and then rediscover it a few weeks later and love it all over again.
Tiny Love Symphony Light and Motion Mobile in Blue/YellowTiny Love Symphony Light and Motion Mobile in Blue/Yellow
LIKES IT. Only mobile we could get to fit on our crib.
Hasbro Playskool Let's Play Together Peek & Pop GiraffesHasbro Playskool Let's Play Together Peek & Pop Giraffes
LIKES IT. He likes the rings, but has no interest in the giraffes. They don't really pop. He seemed to like the Dance Baby Dance! - Classical Stacker by Fisher Price that he's played with at other baby's houses
LeapFrog Hug & Learn Baby Tad PlushLeapFrog Hug & Learn Baby Tad Plush
Buy new: $119.99

Fisher-Price Miracles & Milestones Peek-a-Boo PianoFisher-Price Miracles & Milestones Peek-a-Boo Piano
Buy new: $27.50
PASS. Fun when he was learning to kick with his feet. BUT if you have a non-standard crib it's nearly impossible to attach.

PASS. more entertaining as a novelty for adults. Sucks up batteries.
Miracles & Milestones - Rhymes Go Round MirrorMiracles & Milestones - Rhymes Go Round Mirror
Buy new: $30.00
PASS. Was not able to attach in the crib since ours is non-standard. But occassionaly he pulls it out of the closet and plays with it. Think if we'd been able to attach this he would have liked it a lot better
Fisher-Price Go Baby Go Sit-To-Stand GiraffeFisher-Price Go Baby Go Sit-To-Stand Giraffe
Buy new: $59.99
PASS. Never been interested in this one. The three year old down the street loves it, however.
Fisher-Price Ocean Wonders Kick & Crawl Aquarium GymFisher-Price Ocean Wonders Kick & Crawl Aquarium Gym
Buy new: $35.49
PASS. Was never interested in this in any of it's configurations. The crawl-through setup is poorly designed so it's too small and flimsy. He does play with the pieces (the toys that came with it) separately and LOVES to wave around the padded bars. But not a good toy in it's intended form...
Sassy Baby 2 Piece Suction Cup Gift Set, Multiple Colors, 894/8369Sassy Baby 2 Piece Suction Cup Gift Set, Multiple Colors, 894/8369
Buy new: $14.72
PASS. Was never interested in this. Thought it would be great for when in his high chair but he didn't care for it.

Buy new: $32.88
PASS. Awkward and hard to use.
Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Learning ToolbenchFisher-Price Laugh & Learn Learning Toolbench
Buy new: $46.98
PASS. Likes to push the buttons to see the heads pop up but there is just too much in this toy (sounds, lights, songs, etc) - none of it interests him. He mainly keeps trying to use it like his push behind walker (since it has a bar across the top), but since it's so low he falls a lot. We've taken it away from him already.
Baby Einstein: Lullaby ClassicsBaby Einstein: Lullaby Classics
Buy new: $6.98 / Used from: $1.45
PASS. He doesn't find the music relaxing; it keeps him awake. He doesn't really like ANY of the 5 baby einstein cd's we bought him.
