::LEAST ANNOYING BABY TOYS::

I had this vision that my baby wasn't going to be one of those babies that had a ba-zillion toys that take over my entire house.  I didn't want anything that binged, dinged, sang or banged.  I didn't have noisy toys when I was little, I had dolls and Lego. I was going to have the kind of kid who played with his imagination.  Well, I was clearly delusional.  Maybe when Simon is a little older, and develops an imagination, but for now, to get me through a day, I rotate him from toy to toy, and these are the ones I can tolerate without wanting to murder myself. 

Evenflo Exersaucer Triple Fun

The Evenflo Exersaucer Triple fun.  This thing is great, and it's like a transformer.  There are 3 stages: tummy time, bouncing time (pictured) and it then it all unfolds into an "S" shape when your baby is learning how to walk.  The actual play table offers different textures, movement, lights and effects and the sound effects are kind of, dare I say "catchy"?

Fisher Price Laugh & Learn fun with friends musical table

Fisher Price Laugh & Learn "fun with friends musical table"  Simon LOVES this toy!  You can remove the legs and they can sit and play with it on the floor, so it's something that can be integrated into playtime in the early months.  There's lots of songs (not baby songs, Beethoven-type songs and other instrumentals, again, less of an irritant), and they can also pick up the phone, open and close the "laptop" and turn a book page.  

 

Fisher Price Go Baby Go Stride-to-Ride

Fisher Price Go Baby Go Stride-to-Ride.  It "roars." 'Nuff said.  Plus, it's like a road hog/ chopper for babies. 

Jolly Jumper

The original "Jolly Jumper" - It's not the easiest to get the baby all set up, but once they're in... it should buy you at least 15 minutes of entertainment.  I mean them.  It should buy them at least 15 minutes of entertainment.  Just not after they eat.  Made that mistake once.  No, seriously, this thing is hilarious.  I always lay a blanket down because of occasional spit up, and then I blare songs from "Lord of the Dance" on my iPad, and it makes me crack up every time.
