Your baby at around 6 – 12 months old is the age of exploration and learns about the world around him. He is naturally active and enjoys something new. At this age, babies are normally naughty. I can say that the first year was a magical moment in your baby’s growth.
Choosing play mat that has various toys
will help stimulate your baby's senses and develop your baby's sensory side. I would like to suggest you here
below 10 best play mats for your baby : 6 - 12 months old.

This bright and cheery activity center encourages healthy
development while entertaining and calming your baby. It is very fun, interactive, and educational
activity centers.

The gym features a
quilt with a silky border and colorful arches supported by an adorable giraffe.
A variety of links let you attach toys up above or down below to capture your baby's
attention. A cushy monkey, jingly
toucan, cute elephant, and parrot with spinning paddle invite your baby to bat
them around, an action that helps develop gross motor skills. You can also
place your baby on his stomach for some back-strengthening "tummy
time."
For added excitement, there's a spinner with rattling beads,
spinning butterflies, a shiny mirror, and a crinkly leaf. To suit your baby's
mood, this gym offers three modes of play. In the first mode, your baby's
movements set off eight to 12 seconds of lights and music, which helps teach
your baby about the relationship between cause and effect. Another option is
the music mode, which develops your baby's auditory sense with 20 minutes of
continuous music. Finally, the rainforest mode plays 20 continuous minutes of
rainforest sounds while your baby plays or simply relaxes--don't be surprised
