The 10 Best Toys For 3-Month-Olds, Based on Pediatrician Advice

The Playgym by Lovevery ($140)

Floor time is still critical for 3-month-olds as they work toward physical milestones. A playmat like Lovevery's sets the stage. It's "a lovely space for a baby to explore during the first year of life," Dr. Choi says.

Lovevery's play gym does not have bright lights or prerecorded music, preventing overstimulation, but does have accessories for every stage. A wooden rattle toy can be detached so babies can grasp it, or parents can shake it to encourage head-turning. Other attachments promote reach as babies work to build strength so they can move.
