    27 Parenting Products Reviewers Have Said Are “Game Changers”

    A portable high chair, a sunrise simulation alarm clock, and so much more.

    1. A portable high 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 gently weighted sleep sack aka a soft swaddle designed to feel like a calming, reassuring hand on your munchkin's chest to help them sleep longer, so you can *finally* get some rest too. 🙏😴

    3. 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 eye sores.

    4. An award-winning twist on bingo with 16,000 5-star reviews (!!!). Just listen to the parents who say this game will help preschoolers build early reading skills in the most fun way possible.

    5. A sunrise simulation alarm clock for anyone whose child finds it *physically impossible* to get out of bed when it's dark and dreary outside. This clock will wake them up with gradual lighting and zen nature sounds.

    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.

    8. A leave-in conditioning spray for curly hair so your little one's curls are restored to their former glory once more! It's also free from any toxic stuff including parabens, sulfates, and phthalates.

    9. An LCD writing tablet that'll encourage future Einsteins to practice their numbers and letters. They might even consider trading their iPad for this cool gadget.

    10. The Pink Stuff, a magical all-purpose cleaning paste so you don't need to go into full panic mode when lipstick (or Sharpie) marks mysteriously appear on your walls. (Good luck keeping the little Picassos out of your makeup bag though!)

    11. A pack of sink extenders to save your back the strain of hoisting your little one over the sink. Not to mention they'll love the independence of washing their hands all by themselves.

    12. A Baby Shusher because even though it may seem ridiculous to buy a gadget that literally uses a human voice to make a shushing sound — it'll pay for itself when you no longer have to stay up until 2 a.m. exhausted from “shhh”ing repeatedly.

    13. And a pack of toilet seat covers to have on hand if your potty-trained toddler loves to get their hands ALL OVER gross public restroom seats.

    14. A sandwich cutter and sealer so you can make your own Smucker's Uncrustables copycats at home without spending nearly $10 for a box. Prepare for your life to be *utterly butterly* changed.

    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 rapid egg cooker, an ~egg-ceptionally~ foolproof way to make perfect hard-boiled eggs every time. Just set it and forget it...until the timer goes off.

    17. A coconut and shea butter conditioning detangler with 10,000 5-star reviews (!!!) raving that it's the BEST STUFF ON THE PLANET. Just a few spritzes will combat hair woes — from making knots vanish to taming frizz when humidity is *through the roof*.

    18. 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.

    19. A pack of Munchkin burp cloths, a cut above average burp cloths. These have built-in pockets for hot and cold packs to provide extra comfort to fussy babes when colic or fever hits.

    20. And a sleek touchless forehead thermometer with a built-in sensor that measures in seconds. Added bonus: You can take your baby's temperature while they're sleeping.

    21. A car baby monitor to provide a crystal-clear view of your bub from the dashboard. A game changer for anyone who is fully aware of how painful it is to readjust a back-seat mirror or pull over to check on a crying baby at every stoplight.

    22. An adjustable shower visor for any child who hates — repeat, HATES — wash day, and you don't have the energy to battle them. This will keep the shampoo out of their face and eyes and take the stress out of bathtime.

    23. A Fridababy three-step cradle cap system with 13,000 5-star (!!!) reviews for any parent looking for an all-in-one remedy. Just use the foam sponge to lather up baby's head, then loosen the flakes by massaging with the gentle-bristle brush and finally lift flakes ~oh so gently~ with the fine-tooth comb.

    24. An inexpensive portable white noise machine that'll drown out noises lulling your baby to sleep in unfamiliar places with calming, spa-like sounds. It has thousands of 5-star reviews for a reason (adults swear by it too!)

    25. A kids travel table complete with a tablet viewing stand, a cup holder, a dry-erase board that doubles as an eating tray, and storage pockets for pens and toys — literally everything your kids need to prevent the inevitable cries of "Are we there yet?"

    26. A game-changing Honest Company diaper rash spray that'll make diaper changes less of a hassle and ensure your fingernails aren't victimized by that greasy, sticky paste.

    27. A splurgy Owlet Monitor Duo aka a smart sock and camera combo to easy new parent anxiety. The sock keeps tabs on your babe's vitals like heart rate and oxygen levels while they sleep, raising an alarm if there's an issue. You can also watch your baby from your phone — saving you from multiple middle-of-the-night trips to the nursery to check on them.
