Baby’s Toys and Baby’s Blanket

Let the baby sit facing you. Hold a toy near your face and talk about it. Once the toy catches the baby’s attention, hide it under the blanket and say “Oh no! Where has <…..> gone?” Wait for sometime as the baby looks here and there for the toy. Remove the blanket and say “Here it is. <…> is back.” Babies would love the surprise and enjoy it.
