As a Pediatric Occupational Therapist, I know a thing or two about what toys are developmentally appropriate for your baby! Here is my list of recommendations:
These promote visual tracking and increase strength in babies eye muscles! Good for tummy time or to help babies turn their heads to prevent flattening.
Contrast Black & White Card Set
Another good one for eye strengthening and learning to track.
High Contrast Baby Books
The rattles with holes make it so easy to grip on to for newborns.
Baby Toys at Target
Rattles and teethers are a baby’s first toy! They are important for visual motor, sensory, and learning body awareness!

Another raffle great for baby hands to hold to learn grasping skills.
Shakers

Using your nursing pillow durning tummy time or to help with acid reflux! Putting a jungle gym in front of baby while propped up in a pillow helps strengthen shoulders when age appropriate!
