Promising review: "Oh. My. Word. It’s a stump... it’s an ottoman... it’s storage! I bought two of these for our family play room. They came quickly in super reasonable packaging, and I was able to assemble them in about 10 seconds. They are shockingly sturdy, especially considering the price. The top is cushioned enough for a comfortable footrest. Since the walls are thin, this thing can hold a LOT of my daughters toys. It’s like Mary Poppins bag, y’all! The design is super cute and whimsical... absolutely perfect for a play room. Will it last fortever? Maybe not... but for $20 I feel prettty confident it will last a childhood! Absolutely recommend." —Carla J Alston

Rest Nets is a small biz based in Israel started by a mom who created these hammocks as a way to give parents "an extra pair of hands" for entertaining kids.
Promising review: "This swing is probably the best thing that has happened to our house since we renovated. My daughter can’t go to OT because of the pandemic, so we turned the basement into a sensory gym. This swing is amazing! It’s simple, safe, and versatile. My kids love it!" —Leanne A

Promising review: "Bought this for my grandson who is almost 2-years-old and big for his age. It is sturdy, set up is a breeze, and I love the fact that I can fold it back up for storage. His room here is already full of toys, so being able to fold this back flat and hide it away is a huge plus for us! He plays with this for hours, and it's great for those rainy days when you can't get to the park!" —Stephanie Scott
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
9. An ABC rug to make any room look like it belongs in a Pottery Barn catalog without spending nearly $200. Who knew teaching the alphabet could look très chic?
Promising review: "I’ve been wanting this rug from the brand name for over a year now but I couldn’t justify spending $200 on a child’s rug. I was so happy I found this one, it looks exactly the same for less than half the price! I was even more surprised when it came, it’s incredibly soft and fluffy. I didn’t even have to put a rug pad under it because it is so plush. I got the pink and white, which is a beautiful muted blush color and the white lettering stands out perfectly. I am very happy with this purchase. I have not washed It yet, but from the other reviews it seems pretty straightforward. I will probably have to hang dry just out of fear of ruining it. Overall, great purchase and I will definitely recommend this next time somebody wants to buy that designer rug." —Paige

Promising review: "I was surprised by the quality. They are perfect; I tried to set up one up and put some Funkos on and it’s perfect!! Because they are clear it looks like the Funkos are floating in the air. I’m ordering more later. They are worth the price. Thanks!!" —Luisa

Promising review: "We love the pink unicorn. We managed to fit 30+ medium sized stuffies and we still have room for more. It’s pretty comfortable but heavy when full. I do wish there were two handles instead of one, on the sides of it for easier and supportive lifting. Material itself is very soft and thick. I would recommend this to all the parents out there who are stressing over stuffed animal storage. I will be ordering more for birthday and Christmas gifts because this is a great product.."—Flautas

Promising review: "I brought this girl tent for my best friend’s little girl who is 4 years old. When we set up she was super excited, jumping, laughing, and running all around the tent. I felt it was really worth the money. The product is well made, it is sturdy and good quality, the LED lights are bright. The lights part is what I like the most of this product, it gives the tent a fairy tale feeling, the little girl definitely felt like a princess. Super easy to assemble, all the parts match what the seller list on the website, so you sure know what you will get in the box before buying the tent. If you are looking for a gift for a little girl, it will make a perfect gift!!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I got this for my 8-year-old who loves it. Not only is it an awesome tool to teach geography and to learn about different continents and countries, but this one has an additional benefit of showcasing different constellations and doubles as a night light! What a great idea to add that. It comes with a little booklet about the constellations. It is very sturdy, the bottom part is fairly heavy, way sturdier that I expected. I thought my daughter was too old for nightlights and got rid of her old night light a while back, but I noticed that since she has this, she actually uses it every night. Great product all around." —Addicted to golden berries
