Babies change in the blink of an eye. One day, they’re too young to be interested in any of the toys you bought, and in just a few months they’re too old be interested in those exact same toys. It’s kind of exasperating.
Whether you’re buying gifts for your sister’s baby shower, your bff’s baby shower, or you’re stocking up for the arrival of your own bundle of joy, these 37 toys won’t just gather dust in the closet. We’ve curated a list of toys for each development stage up to a year and a half—and they’re all a click away on Amazon.
Newborns: Learning Through Play Up to 3 Months
Play is so much more than fun and games for new babies—it’s serious business for newborns because it’s how they learn about the world around them. At times, it might feel like your brand new baby isn’t doing a whole lot more than just lying there flapping their arms, but they’re watching, they’re listening, and they’re learning a lot from their surroundings.
These toys are great for babies under the age of three months because they stimulate their developing senses. Some play music, some rattle, and some have bright colors that will encourage new babies to use their developing vision.
1. A Brightly Colored Rattle That is Sure to Catch Their Eye
Your newborn will spend a lot of time watching the world around them. This Butterfly Hanging Rattle Toy by Macik can be clipped onto the handle of their carseat or attached to the overhead arch of a playpen.
Bright pieces and patterned fabrics will catch your baby’s eyes. As your baby develops, he or she can begin to bat at the hanging pieces, squeeze at crinkling wings, and hear the body squeak when it’s squeezed.

2. A Colorful Toy for Grabbing and Shaking
If you’ve ever played with a newborn, you’ve probably noticed how they reflexively wrap their fingers around yours the instant your touch their palm. This is called the palmar grasp reflex, which develops in the womb and continues for months after birth.
This reflex makes a lightweight shaker like this Winkel Rattle and Sensory Toy perfect for a newborn baby. Place it in their palm and watch as they shake it, stare at it, and even draw it to their mouth to gum on it from time to time. The plastic loops of this toy are BPA-free, making them perfectly safe for teething babes.
As your baby grows older, they can learn to use both hands to play with this toy and may even begin transferring the toy from hand to hand.
