What are some good toys for a rainbow lorikeet?

at the moment he/she loves to play with cats toys (the bells inside the little balls) and such, what else would be fun for her/him during the day? Do they need bedding, or is just perches fine?
Any advise on Lorikeet care?

Thanks for any help :D

These birds are active and easily entertained giving
them toys is simple. To a lorikeet, pretty much anything & everything
is a toy. To start with, lorikeets enjoy loose objects on
the bottom of their cages. These can be plastic balls, sections
cut from a cardboard paper towel tube, little whiffle balls with
bells, plastic containers and tops, even plastic key rings from
the infant section of the supermarket. Another favourite floor
toy is a small plastic bottle, preferably with a screw on top, filled
with beads or something that makes noise and rattles when
moved. Noise, and lots of it, is important to lorikeets. Make sure
the toys are safe for your bird because lorikeets sometime like to
chew on things.
