My son recently turned 1 and just looking for ideas to help keep him stimulated. He has a strong need for stimulation and is probably getting frustrated that he cannot communicate his needs yet. His sister (who is borderline DYS) had similar needs, but she is quite a bit older now and I conveniently forgot how needy she was:) Most likely he is bright, but it is way to early to worry about that right now.

Could you just remind me of some good activities or toys (or books) to do with him at this age? I need some fresh ideas:)

For reference, he is at the point where he wants me to carry him (even though he has been walking for months) and name everything in the house, garden, etc. He would do it for hours if I had time.
