1. A pack of colorful Puj hanging cups so kids can help themselves to water without saying "Mom" or "Dad" 500 times a day. Plus, no more washing a gazillion cups daily. Win win.
2. A viral TikTok toothbrush holder and dispenser that'll squeeze toothpaste on your child's brush for them and keep you from having to wipe down toothpaste-smeared counters.
3. A pack of sink extenders to empower them to wash their hands or brush their teeth just like the grown-ups. Not to mention it'll save your back the strain of hoisting your little one over the sink.
4. And a pack of ingenious light switch extenders with an easy to grab moon-shaped handle that'll let kids turn the lights on and off ~all by themselves.~ The best part? These glow in the dark.
5. A nonslip Montessori silicone place mat designed to help little ones master the art of setting the table. It's also chemical free, eco-friendly, and dishwasher safe.
6. A sturdy bookshelf at the perfect height for pint-sized readers that'll create an inviting display of books which basically say, "pick me, pick me."
7. A sturdy wooden Melissa & Doug wooden cleaning play set, a mini version of the real thing that'll teach mini helpers some *immaculate* life skills.
8. A detangling brush designed with an easy-to-hold ergonomic handle for kids that'll take them from dreading brushing their hair to having them do it (mostly!) by themselves. Just trust the 30,000+ people who gave it a 5-star review.
9. An anti-slip potty training seat boasting a ladder that'll make the "big potty" feel a lot less intimidating.
10. A pack of motion-activated toilet night-lights to make middle-of-the-night toilet runs less messy. Added bonus: There's no need to leave the bathroom light on all night long.
11. A pack of spill-proof Munchkin snack catchers your future self will thank you for for not having to hand your toddler snacks *one piece at a time* or constantly clean their trail of snacks. They'll allow easy access for little hands but prevent Cheerios from flying everywhere.
12. A splurgy wooden learning tower so little sous chefs can be part of the action at the kitchen counter. It'll pay for itself when you no longer have to fear they'll topple over while defiantly perched atop a chair. The best part? It converts into a little table!
13. And a sturdy step stool with a grippy surface and slip resistant rubber feet to give any toddler's self-care routine a confident boost.
14. A double closet rod to hang kids' clothes at eye level so they can dress themselves every morning — and actually like the outfit they're wearing (which is nothing short of a miracle, tbh).
15. A child-safe wooden knife for tiny helpers eager to help in the kitchen. This tool will keep their little fingers protected, while they proudly chop fruits and veggies.
16. Or a set of plastic knives so you can enlist your tiny top chef's help with dinner prep. While these do a pretty decent job of chopping veggies, they're not sharp enough to slice a finger.
17. A sunrise simulation alarm clock if your kids refuse to wake up when it's dark and cold outside. This clock will wake them up with gradual lighting and nature sounds. No more making a dozen trips to their room to yell at them.
18. A waterproof potty-training watch that exists for the sole purpose of reminding toddlers or preschoolers to use the toilet on the reg *so you don't have to*. Before you know it, they'll be excitedly yelling "potty time" when the alarm goes off. What a time to be alive!
19. A rapid ramen cooker capable of cooking noodles in the microwave in three minutes. It's so easy to use, older kids can whip up a bowl on their own whenever a ramen craving hits.
20. A fizzy toilet-cleaning bomb that'll make cleaning a bathroom dare I say, fun for the kids. All they need to do is plop in the bowl and watch the fizzing action dissolve all the grime.
21. A Melissa & Doug magnetic responsibility chart so you can set expectations and reward your child with smiley faces for completing chores around the house. A little positive reinforcement never hurt anyone...right?
22. A 3-in-1 night-light, sound machine, and time-to-rise device to help develop independent and healthy sleep habits. You can control it from your phone to create custom light and sound programs in sync with bedtime, nap time, and wake-up routines — so they know when it's time to hit the sack and when it's OK to come running to your room.
23. An Ezpz silicone mini training cup and straw combo designed by a pediatric feeding specialist to teach toddlers to safely drink from an open cup and straw. It'll fit perfectly in chubby little hands (thanks to the weighted bottom) and make the transition from the bottle to the cup, well, easy peasy.
