Hi @Sarma1,
I'm sure Workshop members like @Wayne, @Poppop and @kel that make toys will be happy to help. In the meantime, you might like to check out these previous posts:
Hope that helps,

A few of these are probably more suited to bigger kids a some could be used for new borns.
Good for extra hanging space in the nursery. Or position over a cot, bouncer or bassinet to hang soft toys or a mobile.
Mobiles made out of anything.
Storage/ toy boxes.
Folding black board.
Car track.
Toy trolley.
I forgot to add cut up pieces of wood into blocks and different shapes and paint them different colours.
Thank you :
Thank you
Here are a couple of simple XMAS things we made this year.
@Sarma1If I may suggest a framed wall hung 3D Miniature Kitchen/Pantries
and Stock it with Coles Minis collectibles

Love the simplicity of these toys @robchin and can imagine making something similar this year. The ones using small branches remind me of a 'bridge' my friend and I made in primary school. We collected many straight sticks, cleaned them up and sawed them even about 30cm long. Then we hand-drilled holes at the end of each stick and threaded them all together to form our flexible bridge. It was quite a task and one we were proud of. It got used in so many different ways. From a bridge to a dam to a stunt jump on our extensive downhill marble runs. Thanks for jogging my memory. I think I'll design something using the same idea and turn it on the lathe. Cheers, Al
