1. A TikTok-famous grape cutter because they love eating grapes, you love that they love eating grapes, but you do NOT love that you spend so. much. time. quartering grapes. Now you can help reduce choking risk in half the time!
Promising review: "I know it seems silly but JUST BUY IT! With 2-year-old twins, I was constantly cutting up grapes for lunches and snacks. This gadget makes things 10x easier!" —Jessica Willis
Promising review: "My twins are grape obsessed, I’m terrified of them choking, so this is a perfect tool. Wish we had it sooner. It’s easy to clean, works fast, and saves a ton of time while my twins eat grapes faster than I can cut them." —The Caldwells
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
2. A SockDock — with it, each family member can have their own, adding their dirty socks to it daily, and *never* see a sock separated from its matching mate *ever* again. Plus whoever's folding those socks will be able to do it in no time at all!
You simply slip each day's pair of dirty socks through its own secure slot in the cord, then when it's full, throw the entire thing in the wash as normal. When it comes out of the dryer, every sock will be clean but also secure in its spot! And don't worry, lots of reviewers say it works even for tiny baby socks.
Promising reviews: "So far this is working great! My 4- and 6-year-olds can put their socks in it, and I just throw it in the wash! The little socks don’t get stuck in my washer drain anymore, and I don’t go searching for matches. I seriously would not fold socks just cause I dreaded matching them before. I like that it goes into the dryer as well. Comes with TWO, so you can have one for each kiddo or one in the wash and the other collecting more little stink bombs." —luv2cook

Kevin Bunn founded SockDoc, a small business, in March 2017 after experiencing that common frustration of favorite socks going missing from his laundry.
3. A TikTok-beloved toothbrush holder and dispenser because you're tired of cleaning up the toothpaste mess a 2-year-old and a 4-year-old leave when they squeeze their own — this does it for them, both wasting less (aka saving you $) and leaving your counters free of globbed bubblegum-flavor paste. It takes two flavors of toothpaste at a time, so everyone can get their preference!
It features two different toothpaste dispensers (so they have options!), six toothbrush slots, and four cups.
Promising reviews: "Not only does this work exactly as advertised, but it makes brushing fun for my two little kids. No more cups, brushes, and tubes cluttering up the vanity. And it absolutely gets every morsel of toothpaste out of that tube." —Amy Hertel
"A TRUE MUST-HAVE from a mama who KNOWS!!! Every household with kids should have this thing, actually EVERY HOUSEHOLD, REGARDLESS! No more finding toothpaste everywhere but down the sink drain, no more throwing half a tube away because of lost caps. Simply press your brush against lever and a perfectly portioned dollop every time. When it’s time to rinse, grab one of the four cups that are hidden in the top and bottom of this little masterpiece. Rinse your brush, open the storage compartment, hang brush, and shut lid! Bristles are covered and protected from the wide array of germs that like to inhabit bathrooms." —Jen
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in three colors).
4. Some Bubble Lick edible bubbles for an afternoon activity everyone can enjoy, made even more delightful because they taste like watermelon!! If you thought bubbles were a fun way to play with your kids before, just wait until they can catch bubbles with their *mouths*. Boredom, begone!
Dogs love them too!!
Promising review: "Fun for kids to limit screen time! We great fun with the kids chasing bubbles trying to bite them in the air.
The 8 year old, however, saw “edible” and tried to drink the liquid because it smelled good. After a quick intervention about “edible” not being the same as “safe to drink” and the toll that a surfactant has on the GI system (ie: consuming soap causes bubble guts and diarrhea) we got back on track. Good times." —Jacko
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.99 (also available in cotton candy, maple bacon, and gingerbread flavors).
5. An under-$100 Lascal Ride-Along stroller attachment so you can continue using your trusty stroller for your baby *and* move faster than your toddler's little legs will let them (not to mention give your toddler somewhere to rest when they're tired). It pulls up when not in use, and it's wayyy cheaper than buying a new two-kid stroller!
It works for kids starting at 2-years-old and who weigh up to 66 lbs. It's designed to be compatible with over 95% of strollers out there — check this list to see them all — including lightweight strollers. You can also buy a second Universal Connector Kit ($29.99) to be able to use it on many types of strollers. Oh, and they make a version with a seat for $159.95, if you know your kiddo would prefer that.
Promising review: "Great option when traveling with two kids! My husband and I had been planning a trip to Europe for months. After reviewing several options, we decided on purchasing this since we have two kids under 5, we would be doing a lot of walking, and it was compact and would be easier to bring with us than a double stroller or two separate strollers. It survived several disassemblies and reassemblies. It handled really well on the cobblestone sidewalks, although it is more difficult to push. My husband handled most of the pushing when it was attached since he has longer arms and more strength than I do. Our daughter enjoys riding it!" —Amanda Polematidis
Get it from Amazon for $79.95+ (available in four styles).
6. A modular kids' couch set that they'll get hours and hours of use out of, leaving you free to get things done — it comes with 14 different foam pieces in seven shapes, so they can transform it into a fort, a cozy little naptime bed, a castle, a little slide, or anything their imaginations can dream up!
Promising reviews: "If you are on the fence about which “Nugget” alternative, just buy this one! I’ve had it up for one day and both of my kids (1 and 3) have played with it for hours! I can’t speak on the durability over time, but it seems to be well built. We are obsessed." —EmilyWickes
"Love this for me and the kids! This product is exactly described! It is comfortable for the kids and for me when I am on the floor for long hours with them! It is soft but firm, easy to clean. It fits in our play pen perfectly and it a great place to lay when you child does not want to sleep at 3 a.m. Also great for my mom (nana) who wants to play on the floor but has two bad knees and a hard time getting up and down, it gives just enough high to make it easier. Very happy with this purchase." —Lisa Taylor
Get it from Amazon for $209.97 (available in three colors).
7. A versatile Radio Flyer red wagon with SO many bells and whistles: seatbelts for two kids, two cupholders, a removeable UV-protective sun canopy, an unzippable side that turns it into a bench, a front storage pouch, and 150 lbs of capacity (for cargo, kiddos, or a combo). OH, and it collapses for easy storage and transport!
It's recommended for kids 18-months-old and older. Reviewers love it for the park, the zoo, the beach, road trips, and even using as a diaper changing station on the go when there's nothing in the restroom! One reviewer said they use it more than they expected!
Promising review: "One of our favorite purchases for our 21-month-old twins to date! Folds up with one pull off the middle handle, canopy is easy to pop on, smooth ride. I can get the kids both in and out buckled in less than 10 seconds. We got it for Christmas and have already used it over a dozen times in the first month. I highly suggest this, especially if you have more than one kiddo under 5. Also, the handle is height adjustable which is great since my husband's and I are both over 5'10"." —Jess
Get it from Amazon for $109.99.
8. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper because it can slice, dice, and even julienne all kinds of veggies — including onions — in mere seconds with minimal mess (or onion tears). Everything catches neatly in the container below, ready to be easily tipped into the pan or bowl! TBH whatever age your kids are, anything that helps you get dinner on the table faster is always a win!
Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action.
Promising review: "This chopper is AMAZING. I don’t mind chopping veggies but this is a game changer! It’s SO fast, cuts everything so uniform, and is FUN to use!! It gets my kids helping me in the kitchen too! I think I’ll be eating a lot more veggies in the future just because of this little gadget! Seriously! Buy it!" —AKshopper
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in two sizes).
9. A car baby monitor equipped with a camera that easily mounts to the backseat headrest so you can always see all your kiddos perfectly clearly from the front for major peace of mind. One reviewer says you can set it up to see almost the entire backseat!
PSA: please keep your eyes on the road when the car is in motion.
Promising reviews: "I love being able to see my kiddos with this mirror! It is so convenient since I have a number of kids. Especially since two of them are still rear facing. The cords do get in the way a little but still very worth it." —Rayanna
"This camera is a new mommy must-have. I was using a mirror and constantly was readjusting it and relying on my mirror to see his mirror and it was stressful. I knew there had to be something better when I was driving my 2-month-old to the hospital at night and he was freaking out and I couldn’t see him so I was pulling over to check on him every few minutes and it was a nightmare. This camera has been my saving grace. I was hesitant at first reading reviews saying it’s not night vision but mine automatically switches even in parking garages to night vision. I love that I can see my baby and not have to fix a mirror. Or turn my head to see fully what’s going on with him in the back. I really really recommend this for peace of mind!! —Jennifer K
Get it from Amazon for $27.19.
10. A fancy touchless forehead thermometer, which works in mere seconds to tell you anyone's temperature, no need to stick it under their arm and wait. Yes, that means you can let them keep sleeping while getting their temp — and even if they're not, when you have two or more little kids with a fever, the faster you can measure, the better.
Promising reviews: "Very fast results and no touch. Having two kids under 5, I can take a temperature while they sleep!" —Jaimie Gouge
"This is a great thermometer — accurate, looks great, a must have! If you have kids, forget about sticking a thermometer in their ears. I have four kids now and a thermometer is a must have. Hold this thing close to the forehead, push the button in and you get a reading in about one second. This thing looks good, feels good, and is accurate. We’ve used a variety of thermometers in the past. The head scanner that you run across the forehead...no good. In-ear thermometers...accurate, but expect a battle. Rectal thermometers...very accurate, but expect a war. This is the easiest one out of all of them. We find it especially useful when we need the quick 'I don’t feel that great' check...i.e., man cold. Overall, highly recommend!."—BearDownChi1
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
11. And a pack of stick-on fever indicators that will be a staple in your medicine cabinet, because all you have to do is stick one of the cute bugs on their head, and either an N, 99, 101, 103, or 105 will appear to tell you their approximate temperature. Hate fighting with your sick munchkins to get their temp? Now they can just wear a fun sticker!
Of course, these aren't a replacement for a thermometer, but can be useful to help you track what their fever's doing: spiking, going down, or staying the same. Each sticker is supposed to work for about 48 hours.
Promising review: "We had a stressful day of trying to keep our 3-year-old's fever down and he was exhausted. I had these in the cabinet and stuck one on at bedtime. It immediately lit up N, which matched the thermometer. While putting him to bed I saw it go to 99 so when I checked on him in 30 min I brought the thermometer '99.3.' We used it throughout the night to monitor whether or not we should wake him for more medicine. I think of it as a peace of mind sticker. He loves stickers and got a big kick out of it. He’s had it on about 13 hours now with no complaints. There’s a shiny N there now, and this paranoid mama still checks with a thermometer occasionally to make sure it’s accurate." —Nateric
Get eight stickers from Amazon for $6.50.
12. A Whiskware pancake batter mixer because with so many hungry mouths, you need breakfast to happen as quickly and effortlessly as possible. Thanks to this gadget's nifty BlenderBall wire whisk, you simply add your mix and other ingredients, shake to combine, then pour from the spout. No huge stack of dishes, just a pile o' pancakes in no time!
Promising review: "This is the best breakfast invention after the waffle maker. LOVE IT! As someone who makes pancakes or waffles three to four times a week (my kids are pretty spoiled, but breakfast is key to getting through the first part of the school day), this is the easiest and fastest way to get that done. I just add everything to the bottle, shake, and pour into the waffle maker or griddle. When I am done, just add some water, shake again, empty, and then place everything in the dishwasher." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
13. A rapid egg cooker so you can get some super-low-effort protein in both their little bellies (or one of their bellies if only one of 'em is on solid foods) and your regular belly, without taking much more effort than pouring a standard bowl of cereal.
It makes tasty omelets plus hard-boiled, poached, and scrambled eggs in a jiffy with minimal dishes! And of course all the nonelectric parts are top-rack dishwasher-safe, which means cleanup's just as low-effort as cooking.
Promising review: "I saw this on a BuzzFeed list and, even though I have never had trouble cooking eggs, I had to have it. I have not been disappointed. It makes especially lovely, perfectly round omelets with minimal cleanup required. Hard and soft boiled eggs cook evenly and taste great. The poached eggs are tender and melt in your mouth over toast. It's the perfect kitchen appliance. I grin from ear to ear every time I use it." —Sonnet A. Fitzgerald
Get it on Amazon for $17.99+ (available in eight colors).

14. A water resistant potty training watch because life as preschooler is full of interesting things — so they might sometimes forget to use the bathroom. And with more than one kid around, you've got a lot going on too. So this reminds them to go for you! Set the looping timer at one of the five time increments (every 30 minutes, 60 minutes, etc.), and they'll know for themselves to head to the potty whenever it goes off!
You don't have to turn it off at night either — it can tell when someone's wearing it, and only alarms when it's on. Genius!
Promising review: "Good grief this thing works miracles. My 3-year-old son just seemed to have all types of issues with potty training. He loves (this watch) and only takes it off to charge it. I’ve even noticed he now wakes up in the middle of the night to go to the restroom on his own. We take the watch off to charge it overnight but I’m sure the watch is contributing to him understanding his body. Seriously I can go on and about how this watch is perfect for stubborn babies learning to go the 'potty.' Just buy it." —Natalie Peterson
Get it from Amazon for $24.45.
15. A set of (dishwasher-safe!) plastic knives if both kids are eager to help with dinner, but you're just looking for a way to get food on the table faster. Because this comes with three, you can give each kiddo one and let them help out, keeping them occupied next to you while you prep the salad.
The serrated blades make it easy for them to cut slices but aren't sharp enough to cut skin. Of course, children should still be supervised while using these knives!
Promising reviews: "My kids have these knives and they cut surprisingly well for being plastic. Even the 2-year-old stayed entertained cutting up cucumbers for an hour while mom and dad cooked and he felt included. A definite win!" —tinroofsunday
"My 4-year-old daughter keeps asking me for things to chop up. They’re perfect for the little chef in your life or the kid who wants to be a big helper. So far she’s easily (and safely) chopped up: lettuce, apples, bananas, strawberries, potatoes, even carrots! I can run my hand along the blade and not cut myself. They’re nice and lightweight so it’s not cumbersome for younger kids. Love them!" —Abby Roeller
Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.95.
16. And a wooden learning tower with plenty of space for both your chefs-to-be to stand and comfortably help with lunch. Even better? You can fold it flat in less than five seconds for easy stashing away!
Grandpa Ken's Workshop is a small biz based in Tonganoxie, Kansas that makes cool wooden furniture by hand just like this.
Promising review: "We absolutely love our twin kitchen helper! It makes cooking in the kitchen with our twin girls so fun and special now. And they adore it too! They can get in and out of it so easily and they are very secure in it. I’m so glad we found this. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a kitchen helper for two. Thanks so much!" —Angela Maselli
Get it from Grandpa Ken's Workshop on Etsy for $269+ (also available in a natural finish).
17. A leave-in curly hair spray conditioner that'll transform your oldest's otherwise messy, frizzy 'do into a head full of beautiful curls without taking any extra effort on your part — you can even spray it on dry hair — so everyone can look adorable in 15 minutes or less.
Reviewers say this spray will leave wavy or curly hair (from 2a–4c hair) shiny, soft, and bouncy. And it's paraben-, sulfate-, and phthalate free, thank goodness.
Promising review: "I have two kids with curly hair, and they’re very sensitive to brushing. This is a lifesaver and has been in our bathroom for over four years now. I tend to think the thickness is actually more than we need and I will dilute into another bottle with water. The scent is fresh and not too floral or musty. And if you intend to go a few days without washing, this doesn’t get too greasy or create a film like some other brands (we’ve tried quite a few). One of the best — if not the best — detangler/curl sprays out there!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.69.
18. And a detangling brush so you can effortlessly rid each munchkins hair of knots with wayyy less frustration, tears, and pain for both you and them. Over 50,000 people have rated it five stars, so you know it's gotta be good — and at this price, you can buy one for each kiddo!
Reviewers swear this brush works on all hair types: straight, wavy, or curly (from 3a–4c hair).
Promising review: "Single dad with two daughters, 8 and 5. I dreaded brushing hair, and they did too, especially my youngest with very thick and more wavy hair. Using a regular brush even with detangle spray was a very long process and she always griped/whined through the whole thing. But when we got this brush she started brushing herself and kept saying "look dad, it doesn't even hurt". It has easily cut the time spent brushing in half. Works when it is wet or dry. Both daughters like brushing hair now and will do it themselves even when I don't ask them to." —Andy
"Best detangling brush I've ever used! My daughter has really curly hair and puts up a fight every time I have to brush it! This brush has made bath time a much more enjoyable experience for both of us! 😅 If you have thick, curly hair this brush is a must-have!" —Tiffany Marie
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in five colors).
19. A reviewer-fave stain remover because sometimes it seems like kids can magically conjure messes with their bare hands, and more kids inevitably leads to even MORE mess. This will be like your secret potion to negate even their most powerful hexes (er, stains). One reviewer who's a mom of four teens — three of whom play baseball — said "I cannot believe how great it works!"
Promising reviews: "I love this stuff! It doesn’t work quite as good on tough stains but it’s great for all the 'everyday' stains and messes my three kiddos 5 and under make!" —Amazon Customer
"This is the best stain remover I have ever used! I wish I would have found it years ago! My daughter is 6, and I can't think of how many stains this product hasn't gotten out for us, even old set-in stains that I thought were hopeless. A friend turned me on to this stuff, and now I will never go without it! A must-have for anyone with kids." —Lauren Ruffin
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $14.90.
20. A bath toy organizer with so many good things going for it: it comes with both heavy-duty suction cups *and* adhesive hooks so you can choose the best way to hang it in your bathroom, is made of breathable mesh so it and toys can drip dry overnight, and will keep your tub nice and neat. More kids = more toys, so good thing it's spacious and sturdy!
One reviewer who's a parent of three even uses the top slots for storing soaps!
Promising review: "For the price, this thing is unbeatable! The suction cups have held tight to the shower wall since I installed this stuff. It holds all my kid's toys and allows the water to run off of them to prevent mold. I think this is a must-have for bathtime organization!"—internalburn
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in two sizes and pre-stocked with toys or by itself).
21. And a brilliant bath seat that's perfect whether you have twin babies (get two) or just want to be able to bathe both your baby and your kiddo in the tub at once but keep your hands free for washing and splashing! The one(s) who need it can stay comfortably sitting up *and* will still be able to play.
It's recommended for babies 5–10 months old.
Promising review: "Great for twins in a standard bathtub. I was hesitant to buy this thinking it wouldn't be useful for long but I'm so glad I did. Bathing twins is a challenge and this turns bath time into play time and my boys love it. We did remove the back suction arm so that the babies could have a bit more space between each other but we are always with them during bath time to keep them safe. These seats just make it so they can safely splash the water and play with toys over wiggling in our arms and us having to lean over super awkwardly." —Nataliya
Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in four colors).
22. A brilliant sandwich cutter and sealer because they'll pay for themselves after just two uses, those nearly-$10 boxes of Smuckers Uncrustables are so expensive — key when you're feeding several mouths (including your own). Make your own version at home, and it'll be custom to your own preferences, too!!
Promising review: "These have been a GAME CHANGER in this house!! My son has always begged me for Uncrustables but my wallet didn’t agree with them. I LOVE being able to make them at home and customize them to exactly what they would like them filled with! I make two weeks' worth of sandwiches at a time and store them in sandwich bags in the freezer so in the morning during the school year we can just grab and go! Love them!" —Katherine Smaczniak
Get it from Amazon for $15.96.
23. An eight-color set of washable dab and dot markers so you don't have to stress anymore anytime your mini Monets want to paint masterpieces — they won't spill or drip the way regular paints and brushes do. And they'll keep your artists occupied for hours, according to many reviewers, so you'll have a moment to catch up!
When you buy, you also get a PDF download of over 100 coloring pages that go with the dots!
Promising review: "I bought these for my grandchildren under the age of 5 and it was so much easier and cleaner than using finger painting and they enjoyed the many different ways to use these. Whether it was just as dots or like crayons to color and create many different pictures. Easy cleanup for me when they were finished!" —D Gonzalez
Get them from Amazon for $16.97
24. An Inglesina Fast table high chair — swap those space-hogging traditional high chairs out because these take up literally zero floor space and bring your kids right up to the table with everyone else!
They work for kids up to 3 years old!
Promising review: "Love this product!!! My twins are 7-months-old and love to sit up and look around. Definitely makes any trip to a restaurant easier and I don’t have to mess with those nasty highchairs in the restaurant!" —Taylor Jason
Get it from Amazon for $79 (available in eight colors).
25. A chic Boon drying rack that functions beautifully for bottles, bottle accessories, *and* sippy cups, neatly corralling all the baby stuff so it doesn't become an eyesore in your grown-up kitchen.
Promising review: "Newborn twins are a mess. They took over our house within in moments of coming through the door. For this type A mama, it was a horrifying side effect of the two most precious things in the world. A friend gave us one lawn at our shower and we promptly hopped on Amazon and bought a second to manage the sheer volume. The lawn and the accessories are a convenient and cute way to keep your bottles and pump parts organized. There is ample space in one for one baby's needs." —Lacey
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
26. A pack of nearly invisible corner guards because you have enough going on between your newbie walker and rambunctious 4-year-old without needing to stress about sharp corners.
27. The Pink Stuff cleaning paste — it will be your new secret potion to tackle all kinds of kiddo-created scuffs and stains, from Sharpie and lipstick on walls to sticker residue on tile floors (gotta love the way a 3-year-old decorates).
Promising reviews: "GET IT! I have three kids and amount of crayons I scrub off the wall is never ending. This product is perfect for cleaning! It is abrasive so watch out of metal objects. 10/10 reccommend to EVERYONE!" —Caley Burkhouse
"If you’ve ever gotten lipstick on anything, you know how hard it is to remove. My 4-year-old loves make up and thinks she the next Picasso. This stuff removed it with only rubbing it over it. No scrubbing at all. I’m completely sold!" —Anastasha
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
28. A pack of disposable toilet seat covers because toddlers hands always somehow end up exactly where you don't want them, like pawing on icky public restroom seats.
Promising review: "If you're a germaphobe like myself, this is a must have in your diaper bag. The thought of placing my son or daughter on a public toilet with only a seat liner is disturbing especially since they're both little and still hold onto the toilet seat for support when peeing/pooping. These cover the toilet completely and even cover the lower part of the toilet where dangling legs and pants/skirts touch. My only complaint about these is that they are not flushable. It's difficult trying to gather the liner up (they are rather large) without touching the toilet or the possibly wet liner (because it partially fell in the water) and then scrunching it up to fit into a sanitary napkin bin. Other than that, these are great. Also, I don't use the adhesive strips at all since I have two little ones that usually need to go right away so we don't have the time to remove the adhesive backing. I usually just place the liner on the toilet and then carefully plop my kid on top and all's well." —Ting
Get a pack of 24 covers from Amazon for $9.99.
29. A pack of spill-proof Munchkin snack catchers that won't send Goldfish or Cheerios soaring if it gets accidentally knocked over, while making it super easy for small fingers to reach in for snacking. Help cut down on that Hansel- and Gretel-like trail of food you're cleaning all the time!
Promising review: "Must have! I never leave the house without a snack catcher for my kids, ages 1- and 2-years-old. These are so easy to clean, easy for my kids to enjoy a snack on the go or even just around the house, and I don’t have a mess to clean up after. Being a mom of two kids under 2, it is so helpful to have these because I already have so much cleaning up to do with my two children. I highly recommend! We use them daily and we will probably use them for a few more years." —Amazon Customer
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $6 (available in two color combos and in two-packs and four-packs).
30. An Itzy Ritzy adjustable stroller organizer so you don't have to somehow balance a purse on your shoulder (or dig it out of the abyss at the bottom of the stroller) at the same time you're trying to juggle your baby, corral your toddler, *and* enjoy a nice walk. Your keys, water bottle or coffee, and phone will sit at your fingertips, and it'll look designer-level stylish.
They're made by Itzy Ritzy, a small, parent-owned business invested in making cute, safe, and useful things parents need. Reviewers love it because it's great if you don't want to lug the whole diaper bag with you, or if you want to just grab something without digging for it!
Promising review: "Love the quality. It’s so well made. It’s simple and not too bulky. Something to hold my wallet, keys, phone, hand sanitizer, and a cup if I needed. After adding my essentials there’s still space for wipes and extra cup. I didn't want a bulky one that would be basically a small version of a diaper bag. Just a cute small purse that attaches to the stroller, like this. Personally for me it’s everything I wanted in a stroller attachment bag." —Henry
Get it from Amazon for $20.88+ (available in eight colors).
31. A pack of two sturdy toy hammocks to both display and corral their ever-expanding stuffed animal collection because (say it with me), more kids = more stuff. Cute? Check. Functional? Check! Even better: they can either be shared, or each kiddo can have their own hammock for their special toys.
Promising reviews: "Got these for my girls stuffed animals! So glad it came with two! My girls are sharing a room for the time being and this gives them each their own pouch for their own stuffed animals. It took me 10 minutes max to install and put animals in." —Vicabish
"Easy to install and stores a TON of stuffed animals! Not to mention, it’s cute playroom wall decor! Lol"—PrattKingBall Family
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.97 (available in six colors).
32. A Contigo spill-proof tumbler dubbed by reviewers as a "toddler must have" and the "absolute best" because it really and truly Does! 👏 Not! 👏 Leak!! 👏 Even if your tots fling it across your brand new rug, nary a drop will escape. And it's enough like a big kid cup that each sibling can get their own without the oldest feeling like it's too "babyish."
Promising reviews: "The holy grail of sippy cups!! This cup is THE BOMB! No leaking, easy to clean, my 18- month-old, who wants to do and have everything like his 6-year-old brother, loves this cup! Both boys use them. Not too babyish for my older one and easy enough that my little guy can use them, we now have four of them! I’m sure a couple more are in our future! And the price is great." —shoelover
"I was skeptical. I have a toddler, they can make anything leak or spill. I have been through sooooo many cups trying to find ones that will not leave a puddle of water behind or break. These are magnificent! They are easy to clean but then again I only use these for water so thicker liquid or drinks that tend to spoil may be more difficult to clean out. Overall this is the BEST cup when it comes to capacity, functionality, and most importantly ACTUALLY NOT LEAKING!" —Ashley

33. An easy-to-use iced coffee maker that transforms regular old ground coffee into delicious cold brew concentrate overnight — obviously NOT for your little kids, but so YOU can enjoy a cup with minimal effort and cost.
You just scoop some ground coffee into the included screw-on filter, measure your water, stick it in the fridge, and let it work its magic! One reviewer mentions that they made a mark on the outside for the water height, and now don't even have to bother with measuring.
Maitland, an editor here at BuzzFeed, bought this back in 2018 and still loves it! She says: "It's inexpensive, foolproof, and low-key stylish. The coffee keeps for days and days! And thanks to the airtight seal, the flavor will stay fresh and free of odors from other food in your fridge (looking at you, garlicky leftovers)."
Promising review: "As a mom who WFH with two kids, I find that making a big batch of cold brew that lasts a few days is a lifesaver for me. I have a big cup in the morning, a small cup in the afternoon and this batch will last me 2–3 days. Less to think about and don't have to wake up and make coffee. It's a great treat." —Kathy R
Get it on Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes).
