    If You're Looking For A Parenting "Win," Reviewers Swear By These 23 Products

    *Cue victory dance.*

    1. A portable booster chair that'll immediately become your *can't-go-anywhere-without-it* accessory because it quickly and securely straps onto regular chairs or pops up to provide a safe floor seat. Perfect for dining out, beach day, or Grandma's house.

    2. A mushroom pacifier and teether designed to mimic a boob that reviewers swear has inexplicable ~magical~ powers and will soothe your little one, who has refused every other paci out there. It has 14,000 5-star (!!!) reviews for a reason.

    3. A bear toothbrush timer if you can't get your kiddo to brush their teeth and wash their hands for longer than a few seconds. This cute little thing uses songs and lights to make those activities more, dare I say, bearable.

    4. A pack of motion-activated toilet night-lights to make those middle-of-the-night toilet runs less messy for the kiddos and save you from needing to leave the bathroom light on all night long.

    5. A set of ingenious magnetic locks that don't require screwing into your cabinets. These install in seconds with tape to keep your curious tot from breaking into drawers. Bonus: They're hidden inside so they aren't eyesores.

    6. A viral TikTok toothbrush holder and dispenser you'll regret not having bought sooner because it'll not only free up precious counter space but also keep your bathroom free of child-induced toothpaste messes.

    7. A bug bite suction tool invented by a mom that's worth the Shark Tank hype. This ingenious device sucks out all kinds of bug bites, instantly relieving itching and swelling, so your kids aren't left scratching all day.

    13. And a detangling brush that'll glide through knots to turn your kiddo's daily hair-brushing ordeal into a painless experience minus the *ouchies or tears* (for both of you). Just trust the 40,000+ people who gave it a 5-star review.

    14. A Lego movie activity kit, a cool way to unleash any kid's creativity and allow them to make short stop-motion videos using the gazillion Lego sets they already own.

    15. A waterproof potty-training watch that exists for the sole purpose of reminding toddlers or preschoolers to use the toilet on the reg. Before you know it, they'll be excitedly yelling “potty time" when the alarm goes off. *What a time to be alive!*

    16. A Melissa & Doug magnetic calendar for teaching your preschooler the days of the week, months and the weather in a hands-on, interactive way. They'll jump out of bed eagerly to update it every morning.

    17. And a Melissa & Doug activity book with a pair of safe scissors to channel their (*cough* destructive) energy into a creative activity that'll put their fine motor skills to the test.

    18. A pair of kick mats so you don't have to worry about car seats being wrecked by muddy shoe prints — thanks to your future tae kwon do champs.

    19. A bath toy organizer with 8,500 5-star reviews (!!!) that reviewers swear will actually stick to your wall, tidy your bathtub, and keep toys dry and within arm's reach. What more could you ask for?

    Promising review: "The suction cups on this bad boy are surprisingly strong! We've been using it for quite some time and haven't had issues. My kids are happy to be able to reach their toys, and I'm happy that the toys have a chance to dry out. Win-win."—Jillianne Libbe

    Get it from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in two sizes and prestocked with toys or by itself).

    20. A snack spinner for enticing even the pickiest of eaters to add more foods to their *rotation* at home or on the go.

    21. A sunrise simulation alarm clock if it's impossible to wake up your kiddo in the mornings, especially when it's dark and dreary outside. This clock will wake them up with gradual lighting and zen nature sounds instead of jarring them out of sleep.

    22. A pack of brightly colored stacking cups that'll inexplicably become your babe's fave open-ended toy. Just trust the 60,000 5-star (!!!) reviews and the many, many reviewers who have said, "This is the best $4 I've spent on a toy."

    23. An inexpensive foldable indoor slide capable of holding up to 50 lbs that'll come to the rescue when it's freezing outside. The best part? Just pop it up for playtime and fold it down flat for storage.
