Household Items to Entertain your baby

My little guy seems to always get bored of his toys, so I've discovered some household items that are just as fun! Or at least they will occupy him for a few minutes while I need to do something like clean up the kitchen, make dinner, tidy our bedrooms, write this blog... etc.

spatula
large cooking spoons or ladels
regular spoons or baby spoons
plastic food storage containers
plastic water or soda bottles
food strainer
hairbrush
toothbrush
newspaper or regular paper
boxes (like the one your diapers came in :)

I also show him what to do with these items then he will copy me. Like I will flip the strainer upside down and bang on it with the spooon and say "look, bang bang bang"....... really makes me wonder why I spent $30 on that Lamaze toy last week....
