Sharing Max's learning activities and toys at 11 months.  As usual, it's a hit or miss, so I will be indicating which material is a hit for Max and the materials which are totally ignored.

Making Noise - Baby's First Music Activity

Around 4 to 6 months, when the baby can manipulate objects, it's a perfect time to give her all kinds of noise-making materials, including rattles, shakers and music boxes. As your child gets older, you can provide baby drums, a xylophone or even a lightweight metal cooking pot and spoon will do!  Encourage your little ones to experiment with sounds by banging two objects together.  These sounds may get in your nerves, but these early musical experiences teach the baby the laws of cause and effect and, at the same time, learning about rhythm.  

If you are looking for some safe baby music in toys, here are some of our favourites!
