Bright ShelfWhat To Use at 6-12 months
They are moving more and testing everything with their hands and mouth. This is normal and useful. Object permanence, first words, and early turn-taking are all forming at once. Picks should support exploration without adding noise or complexity they cannot use yet.
📺 Shows
Still too early for recommended screen content. We keep this empty rather than force a weak suggestion.
🧸 Toys
Chew-safe, drop-safe, throw-safe. Toys should survive rough use and keep giving feedback through touch, sound, and simple cause and effect.
📖 Books
One picture, one word, one idea. Durable board books with clear images and repeated language work best here.
📱 Apps
Still too early for recommended app picks. We keep this empty rather than suggest low-value screen interactions for this stage.
