What toys are needed for a baby 8 months old: developing, useful
It is not difficult to choose toys for a child of 8 months. The kid learns to know the world, gets acquainted with the form and space. Almost every safe thing can become a toy for a baby.
What toys are needed at this age
Often, parents and relatives overwhelm the baby with toys: this is not necessary. It is difficult for a kid to focus on such a variety. It is enough to purchase 1 toy with different functions.
The collection of toys for an 8 month old baby can include balls
At this age, the baby learns the world with his hands, ears and eyes. Items for games should be fairly large, bright, with light or sound effects. Suitable for children:
- Moving objects, including clockwork, in the presence of adults.
- Musical instruments or sound toys with buttons.
- Balls made of different materials.
- Boxes of different sizes in which the baby will put different items.
Provide your baby with any safe household items to put in and out of boxes.
Using educational toys for toddlers
The development of fine motor skills in babies is associated with the work of memory, attention and intelligence in general. Age-appropriate learning tools will do the job perfectly.
You can buy your kid a pyramid of several links. Most likely, he will not be able to assemble it yet, but he will disassemble it – with pleasure. Educational games should be carried out together with the baby. You build a pyramid or different shapes from cubes and allow the baby to participate in this process. The box will also come in handy. All items can be folded into it. The cubes must be of different sizes. Wooden, rag or plastic – the more materials they are made of, the better. An excellent tower can be made from liner cups.
Other educational items are also suitable for the baby:
- The simplest sorters are still difficult for the baby, however, you can already show the baby these toys and let him get the parts out of them.
- A single nesting doll can interest a child if you show how it opens and closes.
- Velcro, lacing or a maze – if chosen correctly, will serve as an exciting activity for a baby.
- Complex composite rattles are still interesting.
Educational toys require mom or dad to be present. The kid needs to be shown actions with each object.
The variety of useful toys at this age is designed to expand the baby’s ideas about the world around him. He needs to contemplate them, listen and feel. He plays with these things and makes simple constructions out of them.
