I need more activity ideas!

My 7 month old doesn't stay entertained for more than 5 minutes. I need visuals to create longer play scenarios for her! Desperate mum here

I'm the same, at the minute I'm resorting to putting her in her pram where she's comfy with the twirly pram toy that goes around the bar and a few other jingly toys. She won't stay on the floor more than 10 minutes doing tummy time, she rolls over onto her tummy and gets sick after 5 minutes which sucks because I'm trying to encourage her to crawl 😂 and she has literally no where to lay as she keeps trying to get up. She isn't sitting unassisted yet and I honestly wish she was because then she'd be able to entertain herself a bit 😂 I've just bought a ball pit from Smyth's for £25 I'm going to see if her blow up chair will fit inside of it and fill it up with balls see if that'll entertain her but I know as soon as I get it out my 2 year old will be all over it haha. I think all you can do is persevere with different type of toys. Entertainment is difficult at this age

Thank you! Love the idea of a ball pit and jelly. I'm going to try both. I have an open plan kitchen lounge. I have placed baby floor mats all over the lounge floor. I try to keep her in the lounge while I cook in the kitchen. I can see her at all times but she keeps crying because she wants to be in the kitchen as well. I'm hoping some of these entertainment ideas keep her entertained 🤦🏽

I haven’t tried this with my girl yet but with my little brother I used to let him bang the pots with wooden spoons

Do you have space where you can place a chair on a counter top so she can see you while you're in the kitchen? Or you could pull her buggy in and sit her in it so she can still watch and see you. This is what I do sometimes x
