  • Baby Play Mat by Lovevery

    A play mat is where your little begins to build the foundation for all motor milestones! We recommend a play mat with an overhead bar so you can easily attach motivating items for your baby to look at, bat at, and kick. This play mat offers novel sensory experiences including varied textures, colors, sounds, flaps, a high contrast card set, and teethers.

  • Sensory Rattle

    This sensory rattle offers multiple benefits for babies including oral motor skill and grasping development. This toy is the perfect fit for small hands to practice grabbing and holding. With many opportunities, you’ll see reflexive patterns become volitional.

    The design also allows for mouthing, tongue movement, and oral mapping - oral exploration facilitates feeding skills. If your little has a tongue, lip, or buccal tie - this toy is highly recommended (before and after a revision).

  • Tummy Time Mirror

    We want to start building strength and tummy time tolerance from Day 1. Babies love to look at faces, and particularly enjoy baby faces! Placing a small mirror on the floor is one trick to keep babies happy while building up their tummy time tolerance!

  • Boppy Pillow

    This pillow is great for positioning your baby while providing ergonomic support while nursing, bottle feeding, naps, or bonding in arms. We always want your baby to come in close to you, rather than hunching over and brining your body to baby. Using a support, like a boppy, this will ease and prevent neck, shoulder, and back pains!

  • Ankle & Wrist Rattles

    Rattle and roll! Did you know playing with feet is a “mini milestone” we expect to emerge by 6 months? Mastering this “mini milestone” helps littles work towards rolling back to tummy! Bringing feet to mouth is a sign of core strength and improved body awareness. Ankle rattles help draw interest to your baby’s feet, while also encouraging your baby to kick, which strengths their legs and core!

  • "Feet Free" Onesies

    Letting your baby play without socks or footed PJs is highly beneficial for their developing sensory system. We want them to feel as many new and varied textures as they can to stimulate their tactile system and bring awareness to their feet. Playing barefoot is also one of the best ways for babies to understand how to develop the traction necessary to propel forward (and crawl).

  • Tripp Trapp High Chair from Stokke

    Hands down one of the best high chairs on the market. It’s easy to clean, great for development, and sleek (unlike most of the clunky high chairs out there). The foot rest is adjustable so that your baby is properly supported. A stable core enables a baby to utilize their extremities with improved skill and further build the visual-motor coordination needed for self-feeding. There is a tray available but this high chair can also be slid right up to the table so your little is a part of family meals. Bonus: It ages with the child, so it can be used beyond infancy, through toddlerhood and right into childhood!

  • Musical Toy from Baby Einstein

    When working on reaching challenging new milestones, a toy that sings and lights up is the perfect motivation your little needs. This toy provides stimulating auditory and visual input and grows with a child from something they reach for as a baby to part of their imaginary play in toddlerhood.

  • High Contrast Mobile

    Infants are attracted to simple patterns and high contrast images. Black, white, and red images offer this high contrast, improving a little’s ability to focus and attend. A mobile can be used as a way to help your baby stay calm while on the changing table or to help soothe a baby to sleep. We recommend using a simple, high contrast mobile until around 5 months, when their color vision begins to mature.

  • Suction Wheel

    Once your little begins reaching for and batting at objects (around 3 months), this toy is ideal. It can suction to any solid surface (stroller or highchair tray, window, refrigerator, hardwood floor, mirror, etc.). As babies reach and swat at objects they strengthen their visual-motor skills. The spinning wheel provides an immediate reward for their hard work and motivates them to continue working hard! Also note the high contrast design (black, white, and red), ideal for an infant’s developing visual system.
