She is learning fast and you can accelerate her learning with some new set of toys and you have started looking for toys for babies from 6 months to 1 year.
Lets first try to understand her activities before we decide on what she needs at this age.

You baby is able to identify objects now. For example a doll or a car has a specific shape. If you give her a number of dolls and cars, she might try to group them together or just segregate the dolls from the lot. Yes she is becoming more intelligent and you should try to help her in this learning journey.
Awareness of environment around her
You may have noticed that she has started recognizing you. But you have missed noticing is that she is becoming more self aware. She starts to understand for example about her hands and palms and how can she reach out to a item and grab it etc. It is a very very important development.
