I highly recommend getting a book like this one, but not necessarily this one. I love reading through the different activities you can do with a baby, especially a newborn/infant.

Great ideas for various ages so your play can grow along with baby.
Total waste. If you never cuddle with your baby this might be worth buying.
Simple, straight-forward, indexed. Sections divided into 0-3 months, 3-6, 6-9, and 9-12. I also like that under the name of the game it highlights what your baby will learn from the activity.
The games found in this book were ones I had already been playing with Myles. I didn't find it very helpful.
