Best Toys for Infants 0-6 Months | Pediatric Chiropractor Recommended

Pregnancy and postpartum can bring many challenges and one of those challenges absolutely includes targeted adds for every and any baby item ever created. While it’s tempting to just hit purchase and watch the boxes of cuteness roll in, I can promise you that the number of toys does not make the parent. To be quite honest, you really don’t need much at all in the way of toys and gadgets for the first 6 months of your little nugget’s life. However, if you’re looking for some basics, these would be my (a Denver, CO based pediatric chiropractor) recommendations:

LOVEVERY Play Gym-

  • while more expensive than other options (which are also great!), they are made with better quality/non-toxic fabrics

Mirror | Contrast Toy

  • great for tummy time engagement

  • great for tracking head side to side when on our backs or in tummy time

Baby Einstein Fish Toy

  • great for tummy time engagement

  • great for tracking head side to side when on our backs or in tummy time

  • great for promoting prolonged interest in an object when working on head turn preferences

OBall Rattle Toy

  • great for grasping

  • great for oral play

Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes Musical Toy

  • great for distractions when needed

  • great for tracking head side to side when on our backs or in tummy time

Raindrop Rattle

  • great for calming

  • great for tracking head side to side when on our backs or in tummy time

Exercise Ball -

  • great option for parents to sit on while holding baby for easier rocking/bouncing in those early newborn days

  • great switch up for tummy time, back time, and stretches for little one

Light Up Wand

  • the most overstimulating recommendation ever, but great for short distractions when needed

  • great for tracking head side to side when on our backs or in tummy time

Wonder Wheel Suction Toy & Baby Einstein Spinner Suction Toy

  • great for general play

  • great for multiple developmental stages as they can be suctioned to a sliding glass door at different elevations for tummy time, tall kneeling, side sitting, etc.
