Cockatiel questions

Sorry this isn't a budgie topic but, I've got some questions.
My cockatiel is really attached to me, and pretty much any human. I think it's great that she loves playing with me and napping with me and being pet but, I am not home most of the day. I come home for up to 3/4 hours everyday in the afternoons to let her out and hang out with her. By the time I'm home at night it's her bedtime. I think she needs to be able to play with toys while I'm away but she doesn't like anything I put in her cage.
Anyone else have birds who don't like toys and have any recommendations for toys that they liked?
I have a bell in there, a chain of jingly cat balls with a bell at the end, and a wooden hanging board with leather strings comin out. I've tried rings and other plastic toys. I think I'm going to try shredable ones next time.

try a kabob, mine LOVE to shred them! they go through about 1 small one in 1-2 weeks. They also like popsickle stick toys, they like to chew them off. I can't get on the petsmart site right now, but that is where I have gotten mine in the past, it's like a rainbow one with about 20 sticks on it. mine definitely like the shredding ones more than plastic ones!

My tiel plays with everything in his cage which is mostly colorful wood stuff.
I agree with Jill on the kabob, I bought one a few weeks ago and he has it about gone...:)
