Noisy, annoying toys for babies/infants
In my capacity as Uncle EastEnder, this Xmas I have to buy stuff for my 5 month old nephew & 22 month old niece.
I have been advised to opt for either clothing or educational toys. I have chosen to ignore this advice, on the grounds of zero sadistic amusement factor.
Instead, I have decided to seek out the loudest, most annoying toys I can find, for the appropriate age groups. My siblings may prefer "educational" toys, but I tend to believe their progeny would prefer something that maximises parental annoyance (I certainly would).
Please inspire me. I want to spice up an otherwise tedious Xmas morning by generating as much mayhem as possible.

Ok, I thought more about this, and I'd like to suggest something that would be both educational and loud at the same time. Musical instruments: xylophone, drums, etc. DS has a whole collection and we both love them. A 5 month old won't play with them just yet, but the 22 month old will.
We have a Melissa & Doug set than came with a xylophone, castanets, harmonica, etc. Also a Plan Toys wooden drum, some maracas, etc. Ds just loves banging the drum like crazy, and I don't mind. I always wanted to get this set for DS but never did and now he's too old for it:

HTH!
