Audrey is almost 11 mos, and I am wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a good toy for this age.

She has a learning table (Leapfrog), a Walker (Magical Activity Walker), a stacker (the FP stacking stars), a couple of balls and lots of board books and other small miscellaneous teether toys, etc...she LOVES flipping book pages and doing anything with her hands...any recommendations?? I was thinking maybe one of those wood hammer sets, but I'm wondering if she's too young.

TIA!

Tupperware bowls, books, stacking cups, books, shape sorter (look for hard plastic, not a soft one), books, plastic cooking ware (from your kitchen drawer), books, anything that rolls (trucks, push toys), books...

Can you tell what the favorite toy in this house in this month???

My DD is 10 months old and loves this car! http://www.fisherprice.com/us/babyu/product.asp?s=bubrilliant&id=17778

The curved top is nice for little hands to hold onto while she pushes it around. She pushes it everywhere! We got ours at Target for about $6. It's her favorite toy right now!!

Two Audreys...:)
My Audrey likes those big board books that has the button on it that plays music. My mom got it for her, and she will sit with it and just keep pushing the button and listening to the music and turn the big pages! :)
Also, she loves the Fisher-Price Little People things. She loves the Barn, the Zoo Train, she just loves the little people themselves. They are a big hit.
For her first birthday someone got her a "curiosity cube" I don't remember who makes it, but that is one of her all time favorites still (only a month later...but...) Its a big hit.
This is a tough stage since they're changing so much, but like Lori mentioned, just small household things make good toys too.

DS's favorite toys are things around the house. DS loves emptying drawers or cabinets and playing with storage containers, pans and spoons. Any toy that can be emptied and filled is good. At that age, he was starting to get into books too. We recently got the Learning Blocks Books (recommended by Rachel & Arielle - aka atlbaby) and I think they would be a fine choice for an 11 month old. DS loves them. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0811832783/qid=1064457358/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/102-4223446-5276104

The Curiosity Cube is really cool. Here's a link: http://www.earlyears.biz/E00132showcase.htm At about 12 months, DS got into shape sorting. He really likes the Shape O by Tupperware: http://order.tupperware.com/pls/htprod_www/tup_show_item.show_item_detail?fv_item_number=1004 4822000&fv_item_category_code=21000&fv_section=specs&fv_category_page_number=1
