We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A dinner tray with the power to get even the pickiest eater to chow down. And how does it do that? Well, the plate is broken into eight compartments. Each one has an action that lets your kid play a game as they eat. And at the end of the map, there's even a space for a prize (aka dessert!).
Promising review: "I bought this for my son because I thought it was cute and cool. I posted about it on TikTok, and the post went crazy, almost a million views. I highly recommended it. My son requests this plate for every meal and looks forward to the treat at the end." —Chaunte Thorpe
Get it from Amazon for $15.88+ (available in six styles).
2. A Bissell multi-purpose portable cleaner pretty much guaranteed to gross you out because of all the dirt and gunk it will pull out from the furniture and upholstery in your home. Reviewers with kids (and pets) have used this to save their couches, rugs, stairs, car seats, and more.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok, and our toddler has turned our apartment in such a dirty place. Stains everywhere! Our sofa was in such bad condition (which we only got it two years ago) that we were thinking of getting a new one. We decided to try this, and it is a miracle worker. I’m so glad we bought this. It’s worth every penny!" —shahzad mahmood
Get it from Amazon for $122.22.
3. A car video monitor parents like more than the traditional mirror because it's way easier to keep an eye on their child while in the car. You simply place the camera in the back seat (either behind your child or in the middle if you have multiple little ones back there), and the feed will show up on the monitor you stick to the dashboard.
Promising review: "I saw this product on TikTok and knew I wanted to try it. I LOOOOOVE this product! I hate trying to use my rear view mirror to look into her mirror to make sure she’s okay. The quality of the video is great for the price, and I can easily see if my infant has spit up or I can see her mouth to shove a paci in if needed. I can see details like if her eyes are open or closed. The night vision isn’t too bad but not as detailed but you can see enough. But overall for the price, I would buy this product again hands down." —Michael Giblin
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
4. A pancake batter dispenser and mixer made so you can mix and pour pancakes in one fell swoop. Your kitchen will be less messy on Saturday morning and your kids' stomachs will be full. Now that's the good life.
Promising review: "My 8-year-old is a huge fan of making pancakes. He saw this on TikTok and just had to have it. We absolutely love this product!! Easy to clean and use. I love that it’s an all-in-one. No more messy bowls, and he can squeeze out the perfect amount for his pancakes." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
5. A Boon cacti bottle cleaning brush set that won't ~suc~ to have sitting out on your counter. And it will be super useful in helping you wash the approximately 593* baby bottles you use during the day.
*Yes, I know that is not even close to the real number, but doesn't it sometimes feel like it?
Promising review: "I love this product. I got it because of all the hype on TikTok, but I gotta say I actually find it a really nice way to display my bottle and accessories cleaner. It matches perfect with my boom grass. Makes my kitchen feel warm" —DIPC
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two colors, as well as just replacement brushes).
6. Portable soap paper sheets you might as well put in your diaper bag now because you never know when you're going to find yourself in a messy situation where there's no soap in sight. Simply put one of the sheets in your hands, pour some water on it, and scrub away. You'll have clean hands in 20 seconds!
Promising reviews: "I put one in my car one in my son's diaper bag. I saw these on TikTok and had to get them. It’s horrible when you go somewhere and they have no soap so this is a lifesaver." —Kailyn Walsh
Get 200 sheets from Amazon for $8.49+ (available in three colors and multiple size packs).
7. Comotomo baby bottles actually designed to mimic the shape of the boob to help get you baby to latch easier. Reviewers (more than 30,000) swear by this style for picky newborns who refuse to take a bottle.
Promising review: "Favorite bottles! A mom on TikTok recommended these, so I tried them out. They don’t leak and milk doesn’t come out of the nipple at a fast pace. I would definitely recommend!" —Shaina Tradesco
Get a set of two from Amazon for $23.99 (available in two sizes and two colors).
8. A toothbrush holder and dispenser here to clean up your counter *and* make it easier for kids (and adults alike) to get toothpaste on the brush.
This includes a toothpaste dispenser (that'll squeeze out every last ounce!), four cups and holders, and a place to store your toothbrushes.
Promising review: "I love this item! I saw it originally on TikTok and thought it would be perfect for our bathroom! We have one bathroom upstairs and five people who use it. This cleared up so much counter space for us! There are ventilation holes where the cups go to help make sure they dry properly. The toothpaste dispenser has really been working to get every last drop out of the tube. I would definitely recommend for a family or kids' bathroom. There is also a little storage compartment behind the toothpaste that is great for extra brushes, Q-tips, or flossers." —Sariyah J
Get it from Amazon for $20.77+ (available in three colors).
9. The Car Seat Key, a must-have for anyone who loves having long nails but struggles with said nails to get their child out of the car seat. You can hook this to your keychain, and it will help you unclip the car seat buckle without breaking a nail.
Promising review: "After I had my first child almost a year ago, I stopped getting acrylic nails because I couldn't get him out the car seat without struggling or breaking a nail. I’d have to get them as an overlay or extra short. But I saw this product on TikTok and had to try it out and omg!! It works! It took me a while to figure out the best angle to get him out with it but once I did I went to the nail shop expeditiously!! Lol If you’ve been thinking about this for a while, GET IT! It’s worth it!" —Tora318
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in five colors).
10. A set of bag sealers parents (with kids of any age) will find useful because it will keep snacks fresher for longer. If your snack pantry has a ton of options, but they seem to go stale quickly, this little gadget will seal everything right back up and keep it tasting fresh.
Promising review: "I love this little gadget. Believe it or not, I saw this on TikTok as an 'Amazon product you didn’t know you needed'. Since my older sons are on their own at college, they eat a lot of pre-packaged items. So we got one for each boy as a stocking stuffer. They were actually excited to try them out so the boys went in our pantry, opened new bags of chips and crackers just to re-seal them. Lol! It works pretty good for such a small device. The cutter even works so the bags that are mostly empty aren’t as big and don’t take up as much room. My husband wants one for our house now. Guess we’re getting another one." —Can7
Get a set of two from Amazon for $15.80+ (available in three colors).
11. A mushroom pacifier reviewers love because it helps soothe their crying child when every other paci failed. It's super easy for babies to hold and is designed to mimic the breast — so you don't have to be a human paci anymore.
You should supervise your baby when they are using it to ensure it does not flip inside out!
Promising review: "I heard good things on TikTok, so I bought a three pack to distribute between two of my grandsons and one nephew. One daughter-in-law almost immediately bought several more, and it has become my nephew’s favorite teether. It really helps with getting those back teeth through, too. The easy to hold design ensures that baby doesn’t lose hold of it. Highly recommend!!!" —dwayne
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $14.68 (available in three color combinations).
12. A microwave s'mores maker because what's better than having the ability to make a delicious s'more (or two) on a random Tuesday night with your kids, no bonfire required? Nothing. Nothing is better than that. 🤩
And it's so easy to use! All you have to do is fill the water reservoir, put your s'mores ingredients on the tray (up to two of them), and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds. The marshmallow and chocolate will heat at the same time — leaving you with one delicious treat.
Promising review: "This is a very cute gadget. I saw this on a TikTok and fell for it lol. I'm glad I did. My kids and I have so much fun making instant s'mores. They're done in about 30–40 seconds with literally no cleanup. The marshmallow doesn't melt over so you basically can just run hot water over it to remove a few crumbs from crackers and be done." —Shawna G.
Get it from Amazon for $14.05.
13. A baby nail trimmer actually made with sanding discs that gently file down nails instead of the traditional clippers that can be so scary to use on those tiny tiny fingers. It even has a quiet motor so you can trim your baby's nails while they sleep, and they'll never know.
14. A stroller so lightweight and compact it can fit in the overhead bin on a plane. This means you don't have to wait around for it to be retrieved from storage after you deplane. You can just open the stroller and go.
It folds up so small that it was awarded a Guinness World Record in 2014 for the most compact stroller. It can hold kids who weigh up to 55 pounds and only weighs 9 1/2 pounds.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "The best stroller for traveling! We bought this on a whim for our last-minute trip to Houston. Our toddler is 2-years-old, and what a breeze this was to stroll through the airport, and fold up so it can stow away under our seats on the plane. It is so compact, so easy, and my husband enjoys entertaining everyone and showing them how small it gets. If you have a little jet setter and fly frequently with a little one, I highly recommend!!" —Kimmie Paulo
Get it from Amazon for $279.95 (available in four styles and two colors).
15. An Oxo Tot space-saving drying rack with prongs to hold baby bottles and accessories vertically, instead of the traditional horizontal style that takes over your entire countertop. Even if you don't have a tiny kitchen, this will be super useful to air dry so many products at once.
16. A sandwich cutter and sealer so you can make your own Uncrustables at home. You'll save money *and* keep your kids happy, which is always a win. Plus, you can get more creative with your sandwich creations so your kids don't have to eat PB&J three times a week.
17. A 3-in-1 diaper bag backpack capable of transforming into a changing station in seconds. Yes, you read that right. Not only does this diaper bag have tons of pockets and space for all the things you need, but it also expands and gives you a place to chance a diaper or even let your baby nap. Genius!
Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it, and I am so glad I did. It fits multiple bottles, has many pockets, even has cooler built in. I love that it changes into a changing pad/nap area. One of my favorite baby products and purchases for our baby." —Aaron
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in 11 colors).
18. A spinning snack container perfect for helping you bring multiple snacks-on-the-go, while only using one single container. Then your toddler can press the middle button until it opens on the snack they currently want.
Promising review: "I kept seeing this little container all over TikTok and decided that I needed it! My daughter is a snacker, so this should be super convenient for the both of us. Can’t wait to use this product!" —Kyla Morgan
Get it from Amazon for $29.95 (available in three colors).
19. A Yonanas fruit soft serve maker with the power to transform any frozen fruit into an enjoyable ice cream or sorbet texture. Parents love this gadget because it easily makes a sweet treat the whole family can enjoy.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this. I got this for my girls after they showed it to me on TikTok. I thought it was a great way of making a sweet treat. I didn’t realize how much I would love it. You don’t even need to use a lot of fruit to get a decent size bowl. I buy frozen fruit, freeze bananas, and add some coconut flakes, and it is so delicious. This machine works perfectly. You aren’t suppose to put completely hard frozen fruit in it. You are suppose to let the frozen fruit thaw a tad." —Debbie
Get it from Amazon for $40.84+ (available in five colors).
20. A Contigo spill-proof tumbler beloved by so many parents because it actually lives up to the spill-proof name. Even if your kiddo throws this thing across the room, it won't leave one drop of water behind.
Promising review: "I saw this cup on TikTok and knew my 2-1/2-year-old needed it or better yet I NEEDED it! It is totally spill-proof and drop proof! It's been thrown and dropped a lot and still going strong! I haven’t had any issuing a cleaning it yet🤞🏼" —Hannah Lombardi
Get it from Amazon for $14.38+ (available in two sizes and 14 prints).
21. A bug bite suction tool because bug bites ~suck~ no matter where and when you and your kids get them, and this genius tool will relieve any itchiness in as little as 30 seconds.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "I saw this product on TikTok and had to get it. I’m super glad I did. My daughter and I always get a ton of mosquito bites, and this helps alleviate the itching as soon as you pull the suction back. It’s great." —Rebekka Talley
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three colors).
22. A set of dry food dispensers, a must-have for anyone whose family thrives on a good bowl of cereal in the morning. The containers will keep the cereal fresh, and the dispenser makes it so everyone in the household can pour their own bowls without any help (meaning you can sleep in a little longer, score!). And while most people use the set for cereal, you can also put your favorite snacks in them, as one reviewer confirms.
Promising review: "Pleasantly surprised. I saw this on a TikTok, and I loved how sturdy and sleek this looked. The metal plates are heavy and good quality. It comes with a stopper for the bottom so cereal stays fresh for sure and the turn around wheel is also rubber inside to kind of seal the exit. I'm glad I purchased it, and my kids love it." —Islander
Get it from Amazon for $33.96 (available in seven styles).
23. A JellyCap here to help your child transition from a sippy cup to regular bottles. You can place it either way on any size bottle, and it will make it easier for your little one to take a sip (on their own or through a straw). Reviewers also love this as a way to turn yogurt drinks into something little ones can sip.
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE these jelly caps! I found them on TikTok and knew it would be perfect for my son! He’s 4 and I’m always forgetting to bring his cup. He’s autistic and struggles when drinking from a bottle. These fit great on his happy meal milk from McDonald’s as well as every bottled water I’ve tried! Only down side is it takes a smaller straw than you get at the store. But to fix then I always put the straw in from the “bottom” before placing it on the bottle! 10/10 recommend! Just buy them!" —Nikki
Get a set of three from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two color combinations).
24. A mini waffle maker reviewers love because it doesn't take up a lot of space but can ~whip~ up a delicious breakfast in a matter of minutes that your kids will love. Just know you will def have to have a Shrek movie night soon so they understand the reference on Friday night when you tell them "And in the morning, I'm making waffles!"
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "This little waffle maker was bought on impulse after I saw a TikTok video, and now my daughter and I have been trying all sorts of different things. It's a great item and so easy to use." —L. Sanchez
Get it from Amazon for $12.84 (available in 15 colors).
25. An adorable USB-powered color-changing whale night-light because no matter how old your kids are, they will for sure appreciate this little buddy keeping them company at night. And just look at how easy (and fun!) it is to change colors!
Promising review: "Adorable! I love all of the colors and how there are no batteries needed, you charge it through USB. It's soft and doesn’t have anything that can be swallowed so it’s perfect for little ones. I should mention I bought this for my teenage children who love it too. They saw it on TikTok." —DentalDork
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
26. Dr. Brown's formula mixing pitcher designed with a unique blade inside that allows you to make a big batch of formula at once so you don't waste any time making bottle after bottle during the day. And if you've ever dealt with a crying, hungry baby, you know how precious time really is.
Also, just a note that the CDC recommends to use batched prepared infant formula within two hours or immediately store in the fridge and use within 24 hours.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "For many months, I was breastfeeding and pumping for my daughter. Around the time I was ready to throw in the towel (towards end of 9 months of straight breast milk), I randomly saw this in a TikTok video and decided I needed it for when I made the change. I’ve been using this now for about 5 weeks, and it’s saved my sanity already having the formula made. 10/10 recommend." —Meaghan
Get it from Amazon for $9.29.
27. A freezable teether pacifier about to be the sweet, sweet relief both you and your baby need when they're teething. The cold acts as an anesthetic on the gums, and the pacifier is easy for baby to hold. How ~cool~ is that?!?
Promising review: "My son started teething at about 2 months, and he would get so mad to the point his face would turn red and he would scream and cry and nothing would console him! I saw this on TikTok, and I knew I had to buy it. My son loves this! He wouldn’t want to eat, and I used use the binky frozen, and he then would eat and be my happy baby again. I will say only use this binky with supervision due to babies can open the top of it and get the ice cubes out and could choke. Other than that, it is amazing, and we are so happy we found this and bought it! I recommend this to all our friends with babies!" —Rigo
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
