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. An 80-piece Johnson & Johnson first aid kit for any boo-boos that might happen (and they will). This pack has it all and should probably live in your car and/or your medicine cabinet.
2. A Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza card game (a personal favorite of mine) where multiple players take turns calling out the words taco, cat, goat, cheese, and pizza (in that order) until the word matches the card. But watch out for those gorilla, groundhog, and narwhal cards!
3. A big 'ol box of Pampers Aqua Pure sensitive baby wipes because even when you're done wiping their bums, they still make all kinds of messes that napkins and paper towels just can't handle.
4. A combo pack of Grandma's Secret Spot Remover laundry spray (plus a travel-size version) that will eliminate the toughest of stains time after time.
5. A hanging car trash bag can because when you have kids, your car might actually be the one place that's even messier than your home!
6. A 1,389-piece Lego Dreamzz Nightmare Shark Ship set from their newest line that's really pushing the creativity level in the weirdest and best ways possible. With that many pieces, it should keep them kids busy for a bit.
7. A "durable and leakproof" Bentgo lunch box because it's just as much fun for parents to pack their kids' meals in one of these as it is for them to open it up every day as they move from daycare to preschool and beyond.
8. A classic Bop It! game where the objective is to, well, bop it, but also twist it or pull it, depending on what the game commands (at three different volume settings).
9. An eight-pack of travel-sized Purell hand sanitizers with a jelly wrap for killing germs and keeping hands clean at all times. These are the parental equivalent of lip balms: you'll lose them, find them, and probably never use up an entire bottle.
10. A Stasher reusable food bag that not only helps to phase out unrecyclable single-use plastics but can be used to keep just about anything (snacks, toys, medicine, changing supplies, etc.) contained and organized. Sometimes it's about stopping a mess before it starts!
11. A two-pack of spill-proof, dishwasher-safe Munchkin snack catchers for transporting anything minuscule and munchable while keeping crumbs (somewhat) to a minimum.
12. An Uno "Nothin’ But Paper" card game made from fully recyclable materials (for the first time ever). Now, kids can get as much enjoyment from helping Mother Earth as they do from dropping a Wild Draw Four card.
Walmart
Price: $10.63
13. A tub of OxiClean baby stain remover because laundry piles up real quick, and failing to pre-treat or soak stained baby and toddler clothes means you're going to have to wash them a second (and maybe even third) time.
14. A Hot Wheels Rift Rally mixed reality driving game where players build a custom track around their home and then experience the course on their TV screen via the car's onboard camera.
15. An LED toilet bowl nightlight because in the middle of the night, a child's aim (and let's be honest, some adults, too) is not true. Also, no need to blind anyone's night vision by turning on a super bright overhead light.
16. A two-pack of Munchkin faucet extenders for making already difficult (and messy) tasks like handwashing and teeth brushing easier for the little ones. Fits standard and gooseneck faucets; no tools are required!
17. Loki the Lion who is a Hide & Seek Pal that comes with a special wand to help littles find Loki once he's been hidden. Plus, he roars when he's close to being found. What could be cuter?!
18. An easy-to-read ear and forehead thermometer that takes the temps (of very squirmy little creatures) with one-button operation. The display can be used at night without the need for a light and keep tabs on the last 20 readings.
19. A two-pack of kids' art smocks to save the kids' clothes from all manner of paint and marker stains and, as an added bonus, can also be used for messy little eaters, too.
20. A 10-pack of Gerber three-ply cloth diapers that aren't so much meant to be used as diapers but as super absorbent workhorses to deal with puke, leaky breast milk, sweat, or any other spillage that a baby, toddlers, and kids can bring.
21. A Eufy RoboVac G30 Verge because your hardwood and carpeted floors need all the help they can get when there are a number of kids in the home. Compatible with Alexa, this sucker will map out a dynamic path of your home (all you have to do is pick up all the stuff from off the floor).
22. A spray bottle of The Pink Stuff, which claims to be "tough on stains" and "gentle on surfaces" but is ready to provide damage control for all the near-impossible messes your kids create around the home.
23. A 90-count supply of saline Boogie Wipes because when little noses start to run, it's not a jog; it's a Usain Bolt-like sprint to sticky snot getting anywhere and everywhere. These things are like booger magnets!
24. A Throw Throw Burrito card game that combines all the fun of a food fight without any of the mess or waste. Collect matching sets of cards while flinging and dodging "squishy airborne burritos." And if you work up an appetite while playing, you'll have a pretty good idea of what to order.
25. A 10-pack of Mr. Clean Extra Durable Erasers to deal with nearly any manner of kid-inflicted stain on your walls, tubs, floors, or wherever they can get to. Bonus: also works great for cleaning dirty sneakers!
26. A roll of heavy-duty, eco-friendly, machine-washable, reusable bamboo towels because you really have no idea how many paper towels you use cleaning up after the kids, do you? The answer is: too many!
27. A 20-pack of clear furniture corner protectors for keeping kids safe (and away from the emergency room, been there) from the credenza. And when you're done with them, the adhesive won't strip or damage the furniture.
28. A 115-piece Crayola Imagination art set with case because there's no better way for kids to spend their time than putting marker, crayon, or colored pencil to paper to bring their imaginations to life. Just leave plenty of room on the fridge!
29. A spray bottle of water-based Folex instant carpet spot remover if you've got a kids and a carpet (that you care about), you best believe it's gonna get stained on the reg. Take a look right now; there's probably a new stain waiting for you!
30. A Connect 4 Spin Game that takes the classic game (you know, get four colored discs to line up vertically, horizontally, or diagonally) but adds the new challenge of having to literally spin each column every time you drop a piece. Family game night just got more fun, stressful, and challenging; you take your pick, maybe all three.
