In a post last year on our favorite online educational toy stores, we talked about using the great gift series program offered by Ebeanstalk that takes all the guesswork out of ordering the best expert picked educational toys for the little people in your life.
Why go with Ebeanstalk? Picking toys for a baby is not as simple as it sounds. Here are some quick baby facts:
Toys for a newborn baby: A newborn baby is briefly looking at objects and attempting to imitate facial expressions. They can follow objects with their eyes and usually quiet down, when they are picked up.
Toys for a three month old: They will enjoy ‘frolic play’, reaching for objects and will repeat enjoyable activities. Believe it or not, they will respond to ‘no’ (about half the time) and will start babbling.
Toys for a six month old: They’ll search for hidden objects (object permanence). They’ll reach for themselves in the mirror, play peekaboo, crumple paper, roll from their stomach to their back and even respond to their name.
Toys for a nine month old: They are pushing toy cars, playing pat-a-cake and looking for hidden sounds. The baby toys they are playing with are also getting more fun.
What I love about Ebeanstalk is that they are truly dedicated to a baby’s development. They select the best baby toys matched to a baby’s development.
