Our son one day got bored with his usual play stuff..We had some old CDs which we placed in a shelf and he started throwing them all to the ground..
It just struck me to turn the old CDs to an interesting game. There were some rods (they stayed as xylophone rods only for a day!) in Barathraam's toy box and I showed him how he could put the rod into the hole in the CD and take it away from the other side of CD.
Barathraam tried few times and found it to be challenging and interesting to insert the rod and take it away. He got immersed into it for some time and started finding other kinds of it like inserting his finger inside the CD hole (like Vishnu Chakra) etc..
This became his favourite past time, but yes of course only for the next few weeks..

and then we had to discover some thing else :)
This play idea could be tried starting from 12 months old babies..
