A friend gave us a Lamaze Ride and Play Fun Activity Toy just recently for our three month old son. He adores it! It is intended to be used in a car for keeping babies entertained on journeys. We do not have a car but I attached ours to chair and it hangs next to our son when I leave him on the floor to kick and play. It has lots of velcro bits so it is easy to attach to different surfaces. It hangs down so that there is a circle at the backgrouns and a semi-circular bar sticks out in front with three toys that hang down. One side of the toy is black and white, ideal for very young babies who have poor eye sight and cannot focus easily. The other side are colourful for older babies. The semi-circular tube is removable so you can turn it around to show either side of the toy. It is also just the right thrickness for small hands to grab and play with. Our son really enjoys playing with it and it is the first toy he has reached out to grab.

It can also provide some shade on the window of a car. It is pretty versatile and I would highly recommend it. They sell them in a local toy store for about ten pound.
