Toys don’t only give excitement to the babies but benefit them by strengthening their fine motor skills, imagination and creative expression. Wonderful learning baby toys and games help babies and children to develop new skills as they play. High quality playthings support healthy growth-emotionally, socially, and cognitively. Children learn and develop more by imagining and doing. Speaking about toys and their magic effect on children it will be very unwise to ignore the age of the little minds, because every age stage needs its special toy.
First months
There are three things which are essential for newborns: delicious and nutritious mother’s milk, calm and healthy sleep and a lovely, bright toy to entertain the little one when he or she is active. Though their eyesight is blurry, and they cannot focus on shapes quite well, bright colored moving objects can get a firm hold of their attention for a long time. And if you choose a toy with music it will become more attractive and fascinating. Rattles, squeaky toys or toys with music can have a soothing effect on your babies and create a calm feeling to them, Gentle music, for example can calm your baby before sleep or just when your little one is crying feeling nervous. A good toy can divert the baby’s attention but for a while so you have a little time to guess the reason of crying and eliminate it.
Growing up
And of course there are toys with popular dancing music and songs which even can make your baby move to the music, wave his or her little hands or nod. As the baby grows up and can already hold toys somehow, well designed textured musical playthings will help to stimulate your baby’s senses of sight, hearing, touch, as he or she begins to discover his or her new world.
Floor activities
Time is passing and your baby becomes more active and quick now he or she is ready for more energetic games. At the age of 6-9 months babies start to grip toys reaching for them, they enjoy playing with balls, cuddle-soft toys, bricks using their both hands. Pushing and pulling along baby toys will encourage walking and be very useful for balancing. It will make them interact with surroundings and encourage physical development as “chase and catch”.
From 9 months to 1 year
So this is the time for interacting toys, like barking dogs and leaping frogs. Pressing buttons and winding up toys will not only entertain the babies but will also teach them about “causes and effects”. It is also time for your toddlers to make an evolutionary step from crawling to walking. But do remember; do not try to rush your baby, you can only help him or her giving a ride-on toy to develop the muscles in his or her legs and arms improving the baby’s coordination.
Do they really need toys?
In the first year of his or her little life a baby grows more now than at any other time, both physically and mentally, that is why it is extremely important to give your baby everything possible to improve his or her development. Your babies like seeing your lovely face, listening to your sweet voice, laughing at you but their world is half empty without toys. Let’s make their environment exciting.

designations of toys for the children were counts a lot.anywei, i have been experienced taking good care of kinder ages children and they want many ways in playing their toys.ages 2-5 were too playful,they grab,kick,suck anything,and chew anything.for this to avoid lead them to a safer place and away from unwanted objects.give them a suitable food for them to chew.medicinal toy cud help.For them to develop differences of objects try to tell them the difference between the two object. Ages 6-7,little creature at this age were eager to study more and more,and so buy a toy that suits their vocabulary and mathematical ability.this can help in refining their mental ability.in supermarkets ia lot of toys like this offered. 8-9 ages were starting in revealing their external and internal behaviour.try to read knowledgeable books with them,and try to explain it to them by their selves,for them to develop analization.and prolem solving. Ages 10-12-emotions and self steem starts.give them time in some spiritual advices to know the diiferences of around us.share with them a game like going out at home somtimes for a change of sorroundings.let them know their likes abt hanging outsite.the rest of the age well….. thanks for letting me read.:)
NO, & it's sad, espically for the children for the Working Poor!!!!!!!!
I really thought about helping you out here, just because it would be fun to write. Then I looked at your profile and see that:
1. You answer other people's questions so obviously without care and thought and apparently just for points so you can go ask more questions.
and
2. The people that are gracious enough to assist you or answer your questions most of the time don't even recieve the courtesy of you selecting the "best answer" but they are instead selected by voters.
So instead I decide that if you are not interested in doing the right, then why in the world should anyone be interested in helping you?

My oldest was 5 months old and my youngest was 16 weeks exactly. I didn't do anything to promote it, it just happened when I least expected it. If he's sitting up, I wouldn't worry too much. Do bring it up at your next check-up though, just to ease your mind.
I agree about the dog being bored and unstimulated. I think you inadvertently hit on that too when you mentioned the dog doesn't appear interested in playing with toys UNTIL you take the toys outside to play with him. Also, the dog displays energy while he paces around to go outside and then when no one goes outside with him he exhibits boredom by barking to either get you to come out or to come back in.
I think this dog probably needs more exercise (actual walks) and some playtime (catch, scenting training, etc.) If the dog is food motivated you could also try spending some time mentally stimulating your dog by using treats to teach the dog some tricks or games.
As far as the particular love of dvds, who knows. Maybe he just sees them as a challenge. I recently watched an episode of this show called "It's Me or the Dog" ( http://animal.discovery.com/tv/its-me-or-dog/index.html ) where a weimaraner would get up on the kitchen counters, open the upper cabinets and nose around in there until he found the peanut butter specifically and take it down and chew through the jar until he got to the PB. Sounds similar to your dogs pursuit of the dvd's on high shelves. The trainer on that show suggested more stimulation and exercise for that dog, so that he didn't have to go searching to get that stimulation.
Best of luck to you. I think you could easily put some extra time and effort into this dog since you've said you're now invested in him and it could really have a strong affect on the dog and his interactions with your family.
Try the dollar store.
What we did with our dogs, first we would physically repremend them. But if that doesn't work being that most people would rather spank their children before their dogs. Something that my father did with a husky we once had (being that he would disturb and kill the chickens) was tie the dog up on a not so long rope. And let the chickens go out all over the back yard. This continued on for days soon enough the dog got broad with them and didn't care for them anymore so they were both later able to wonder about.
Like wise, tie up the new dog and let the other dog play with his toys in front of him. He'll become upset and everything but it will pass. Keep them tied up give the other dog attention if you want provocing him to get over his jealousy of higher dog. Once he get use to that continue on with the food. Hope it helps
Oh another thing you could do with the food is make him understand that unless he shares he won't have food. Forcing him to share. Start in low quantity not all at once
You aren't. I admire you. Also, all these games do is teach a child that there is no one else important in this world. Do you remember when we could play a boardgame as a family and sit together, laughing and enjoying eachother's company? This isn't those times. If more people got together and played together instead of going off on our own and playing World of Warcraft or PS3 or Wii, we would all be in a much better place and really appreciate what we have had all along: a family. I miss those times…
First thing I'd do is get a book on beagles (like Barron's Book) or else go online to Beagle websites to learn about breed traits. You can find links to the Breed Club from the akc website. You can google for beagle breed traits. Do this for any dog you own or foster.
If you live in East TN, I'd give you one of my dog beds. I bought a dog bed for each of my three dogs, and only one bothers to sleep in his because I placed it in the closet where he sleeps.
Each dog should have it's own food dish, but a shared water dish works fine.
Basic training for basic commands is always a good idea.
One thing that's very important is to know that, with more than one dog, one dog will be alpha over the other dog. This can cause some awkward situations as well as some funny ones.
I'd go through the house and yard and just make note of anything you'd be concerned about and see how the dog acts.
Rescue dogs sometimes come with emotional baggage. Learn as much as you can about his history… how he ended up in rescue, what testing and vet services he's received. If he's been followed by a vet in rescue, you may not need to have your vet check him. You need to know what their evaluation of his personality is. Some rescue groups do extensive evaluation, and some training and socializing.
Your dog is the alpha dog because it's his forever home. Introduce the new dog gently, hopefully rear end first for snif and greet time. When you walk the dogs, try to do it together.
It would be good to get the dog a few new toys when you bring him home, but you might want to let him take them when he goes to a final forever home.
When you bring him home, don't just put the two dogs together and leave them…. make sure they get along before you leave them alone together. On rare occasions the dogs won't get along, and I have one friend who has to keep one of her dogs separated from the rest.
I'm pretty sure it's normal. Even if she isn't playing with them, she's still is actually "playing". Maybe she's pretending that pile of toys is a mountain or maybe she's saving the toys from the monsters on the floor. You never know with 3 yr. olds–they have a wild imagination at that age.
Maybe you could get her a small couch and make that "her couch". They make child-sized furniture and I've seen some really cute little couches and chairs at Toys R Us.
Also, if a majority of her toys are in the living room, maybe move them to her room instead. That way, she'll put them on her bed or somewhere else instead of on the couch. Maybe even make her a playroom so she knows "this is the room for my toys…not the living room, not the kitchen, THIS room is the toyroom".
Without really seeing what is going on which always helps….I don't think you really need to worry about anything…this sounds like perfectly normal behaviour. She is teaching Violet a bit of respect – hence Violet shows submission to her (cowering) and this will also ensure that Violet does not attempt to usurp her position as she grows older. Packs are often made up of related bitches, whilst the boys will eventually leave – just be careful when intervening, because it could disrupt the natural heirarchy if Nala feels your attention to Violet is threatening her position. Obviously you still need to be in charge…but as you can't be there all the time they will also have their own heirarchy below this…if you can understand and accomodate that heirarchy, whilst taking the top position when you are there, then your pack will be a lot more stable.
Like the savage growling that goes on – yet not a mark is found, this pouncing can look a lot rougher than it actually is.
Hope this helps.
I used to have a siamese ragdoll, who had a toy she loved. Her Bud. She would look all over for it. Bring it to you when she wanted to play and sleep with it. Cats are supposed to be smarter than dogs. So fetching is good. Someday soon we'll see you on TV with your cat that can fetch a beer.

A great resource for gifted information. He sounds very advanced and could quite possibly be gifted!
His Dr probably won't mention "gifted" as he is still VERY young.
Also check out the PBS Development tracker:

Great resource and detailed development information.
And as for "doing" anything, just read to him, take him on walks, read to him, play with him, do whatever you would normally do! Did I mention read to him!!??
I agree its popular to stereotype black women as sex objects even more than white woman-especially in the US. And I agree-black women are often portrayed as sex maniacs as well in our culture.
Absolutely. We can never understand Gods wisdom, but we can certainly witness the effect. I would direct your attention to the people who responded and made a contribution, then I would direct your attention to some of the answers I imagine you will get to this post.
Next, I would have to ask, does the term "separating the sheep from the goats" take on a whole new meaning? I applaud your effort, and assure you that Joey is well, and very happy. I will pray that his folks receive knowledge and understanding in this difficult time, and that their faith not wavier.
different upbringing- i guess so
different exposure to sex-somewhat
different exposure to nudity- not really
can your 'problem' be blamed on your upbringing-naaa
2 ppl caould be exposed to your upbringing, one could be frigid and one may not be, who knows
is your current situation 'abnormal' naa
you have a high sexual drive that seems to be getting stronger
could be related to events in your life, kids going to school giving you more time/freedom
but no, your no where near adnormal, its what you are, enjoy it
