I don't leave toys in the crate with Bella if she's unattended, either. Just a blanket. I leave the TV on so she doesn't feel as lonely, and we have a cat roaming the house as well.
For toys, we use small stuffed animals with squeakers, but only when she's under supervision, because once she broke the stitches and pulled out the stuffing--you don't want them to swallow that. Also, squeakers are a choking hazard if they pop out of the toy. We check the stuffed animals for torn seams from time to time and either sew them up or replace them. We also check the quality of the seams at the time we purchase them. Bella also has a small rope bone and a rubbery Nylabone, but she doesn't play with them as much as she used to when she was a puppy.
