When you are playing with your baby, and they seem to be doing the same thing over and over again, change it up just slightly.
If they are banging a pan with their hand, give them a wooden spoon to bang with. If they are putting blocks in a bucket, try making zooming or silly noises as the blocks fall in. Think of it like a "variation on a theme" in classical music—where the basic play pattern is the same, you just switch it up a bit.
