I would just let him explore what he wants at his own pace -too young for a set activity imo x

The 8mnth old that I mind loves music/dancing, painting (getting hands really messy), rolling balls and searching out everything in the room that is NOT a toy!! He is a really happy chap, always smiling and loves social interaction

Thank you ladies, I do normally let him roll around but with Ofsted coming for my first inspection I was a little worried what to do x

my 7 month old loves sensory play, cooked spaghetti, so he can get his hands in it, also dry past, but he has a dummy, so I pop that in so he does not eat it. Discovery bottles are good too.

I cant get my 8 month old invested in anything if isn't stimulated at home so its hard to get him to do anything....too strenuous and if screams
-
How about making shakers out of pringle containers, or cocoa tins and putting rice, lentils etc - I also have one with cat collar bells , create a treasure basket, metal serving containers with handles on (like you get in indian restaurant) are great for putting things in and stirring or banging with wooden spoons.

Another good one is dry pasta and rice or shells in an empty milk carton with the lid glued on. They can hear and see the movement x

I look after an 8 month old and she is interested in everything noisy and balls. I sit for ages rolling a ball to her. She loves it. I also play peepo as she has started to enjoy that and laughs. Not sure what else to do with her either x
