That's such a sweet age. A lot of things don't interest a baby at that age. One thing you can do though is hold them in front of you and smile. Make little noises. You could help them to be more interested in their toys by making the little noises as you pl ay with them. Let them watch you. For instance, a airplane. Hold it up in the air and fly it while making the plane noise. This will get the babies to hear and see the way things work [[or are played with]] If you need anymore adive, just e-mail me.

At his age visual sensors aren't perfectly developed. Try using a red/black/white mobile, or cards or stuffed toy. Those are the colors most easily seen and distinquished by children at that age.
Also, try teaching him signs. ASL if you're American. Sign simple things like "milk" when you breast or bottle feed. Begin singing, then pause and sign "more" before singing again. While you can't expect a coordinated response via sign from the child until around 6 months, he'll be able to recognize and respond to what you teach him. This works fantastically for hearing infants, as well as deaf.
Show him photos of his parents and extended family. By 3 months most children can recognize (via facial expression) different people important in their lives. Mom is usually the first recognized.

Your baby might not be showing much interest in toys simply because he can't play with them yet. What might interest him is a mobile, music (they say classical music stimulates their brain and aids in intelligence) and you! Make silly faces with your baby and see how he tries to imitate, sing to your baby, play peek-a-boo and pat-a-cake. Your baby doesn't have to be stimulated all the time, either. Sometimes it's nice to just rest. After all, after a full day at work, you like to just veg out, right? Don't worry about his interest level too much. He'll pick it up just fine as he grows up.

He's not bored. This is as much as his little brain can handle right now. It's very possible to over stimulate him now and make him glaze over and look bored. Sing to him, dance with him, read to him, play games with his body and move his legs and arms, massage him. All things that give the 2 of you contact he'll enjoy. They're quite happy being little blobs right now.

At that age, they can't really interact with toys. They really are just sort of there. :) Babies at that age need to do tummy time, so get a nice blanket and lie on the floor with him.

They just like listening! Read a book with bright pics he can gaze at. Take him for walks, sing songs. Just carry him around and offer comentary on all that you do.
