1. A bathtub spout guard that will protect your little one's noggin without turning the spout into an animal-shaped toy they won't leave alone. It fits most spouts and the neutral design of this cover is excellent if you are limited on bathrooms and don't want to feel like you're living in a baby-proofed wonderland.
2. A set of faucet extenders to help your toddler get a taste of independence and help save your hands from quadruple the washing. This thing helps your little one reach the water with ease and without needing to be hoisted up like a sack of potatoes. May your back rejoice!
3. A shampoo rinser that will help eliminate those bath time hair rinsing struggles. This rinser contours to your child's head to help avoid water in their eyes — for babies AND water-sensitive big kids. It's made out of a soft material, cleans easily, and has a handle that makes it easy to pour and hold even the smallest of babies.
4. A set of two silicone bibs complete with a pocket to catch food that will 100 percent drop during every single meal. Not only are these dishwasher-safe and super easy to clean — no matter HOW busy you are — it's also adorable watching your little one dig in the pocket for a surprise second snack.
5. An adorable and MACHINE WASHABLE area rug that gives your child a cute place to play AND gives major peace of mind about inevitable spills. Go ahead and channel that free time into something for you.
6. A cool mist humidifier that'll be so helpful if your little one comes down with a cold. Cool mist humidifiers help keep nasal passages open, allowing colds to pass more quickly and easily — and allowing more sleep opportunities for you and fewer trips to their room throughout the night.
7. An electronic nasal aspirator to quickly clear those nasal passages without having to use your own lung power. Electric aspirators can be easier, gentler, and more effective than manual aspirators. Bonus features include fun sounds to distract your baby and a light in case you're using it at night. Let's be real here — your baby needs to breathe, and you need to sleep.
8. And an easy-to-use, no-touch thermometer for getting a temperature read quickly. I have struggled with dragging a thermometer across a forehead and getting an error message, or getting a wiggly toddler to get an oral reading. Give me this thermometer over literally any other method. It even has a silent mode so you can ease your middle-of-the-night worries without interrupting your sick kiddo's precious sleep.
9. An electric nail buffer because there is nothing more nerve-shattering than trying to trim those tiny paper nails. Not only can you save the drama of actual clippers, but it includes an LED precision light, has a quiet motor in case you do the job while baby is sleeping, and stores easily. Say goodbye to sobbing uncontrollably for pinching baby's finger AND scratch marks all over your chest, because you CAN have both.
10. A set of sandwich cutters and sealers, which also includes shapes for fruit and cheese, AND food picks for a fun alternative to a fork. Not only are you getting one less argument about crust, but kids also love the different shapes and the novelty of using a pick over a fork. Don't be surprised if you enjoy a little dino-shaped watermelon while you're at it.
11. A super convenient fruit and vegetable cutter that takes all of the work out of minimizing choking hazards. Unlike other brands that only cut grapes or tomatoes, this cutter can even tackle carrots, cucumbers, and brussels sprouts! Now you can quickly insert the fruit or vegetable and slice it into a safer size — especially when you have a number of young kids or are prepping for a party or play date. One less thing to worry about!
12. A handheld vacuum so you can quickly pick up crumbs under the table or high chair without getting on your hands and knees with the dustbin. Save yourself time, energy, and effort by quickly sucking up debris, and enjoy the feeling of walking near the table without Cheerios sticking to your feet. Tired of Goldfish buildup in the car? Use this and revel in the few pristine hours before the crumbs take over again.
13. An automatic soap dispenser to help make hand washing significantly less of a hassle. My kids couldn't pump their own soap for a while and this dispenser saves those growing hands tons of frustration and you the extra trip to the sink to help pump the soap. Plus, it's waterproof, so you can rinse any extra soap buildup off quickly and easily.
14. A low-profile bottle warmer and sterilizer to get those bottles ready quickly. Sure, hot water worked 30 years ago, but times have changed and it's time to move into the future where we warm up bottles with this and avoid hangry baby meltdowns.
15. A dishwasher-safe basket for cleaning bottles so you don't have to. Most bottles come with a surprising amount of parts to clean and popping them in the dishwasher will save so much time and energy. I live for time savers.
16. A high-quality Baby Bjorn bouncer that lives up to the hype. This bouncer doesn't require an infant insert and converts into a chair for toddlers up to 29 pounds. It stores easily and is a lifesaver for gassy babies who love to bounce. I received this as a gift for my first kid, and it was immediately one of my favorite products. I now recommend it to any new parent because it was valuable to my sanity. My kids are much older now, but it's still stored away because I'm pretty sure I have an emotional attachment to it.
17. An ingenious set of wrist rattles that will save you from picking up that rattle yet again for your baby who hasn't *grasped* grasping yet. Just Velcro the rattles around the wrist or the ankles and let them discover the magic of their rattling hands and feet while you take that well-earned deep breath.
18. A tummy time friend that is the world's cutest tummy time tool. Along with being an oh-so-cute llama, this toy includes a mirror — a fan-favorite for the baby crowd — and other sensory objects to help tummy time go from a cry-fest to something you both look forward to. Plus, it grows with your baby through toddlerhood, ensuring this toy will stick around. You definitely deserve more you-time and fewer tummy-time meltdowns.
19. An interactive play seat that gives baby a safe place to sit off the floor in those moments when you need an arm break or a mental break. This cute seat can be configured in different ways to keep play interesting and can double as a snack seat! It's also portable for easy storage and is a perfect solution for where to put your rolling baby when you have to go to the bathroom — I love a problem solved.
20. An interactive doorway jumper that will give baby a fun place to play while you keep an eye on them and focus on your task at the same time. This bouncer also comes with motion-activated lights and sounds that encourage play and easily move from room to room. Say hello to a new favorite toy for both of you.
21. A *whaley* cute silicone placemat for catching spills and messes that are bound to happen. This placemat is grippy to help keep it and any bowls in place, and can be used over and over. Silicone placemats are great to throw in the diaper bag to pull out at restaurants, giving your toddler a clean place to get their food anywhere and everywhere, as they do.
22. A set of snack catchers so snacks stay in the cups and your toddlers don't turn crackers into confetti. As a parent, I love these things and they seriously hold up. My kids are now too old for the lid, but I still use the cups simply because they have a handle.
23. A ball run that uses magnetic tiles to create exciting bull run mazes. It also can be combined with magnetic tiles you may already have to create even higher towers! The amount of attention my kids give to this toy is truly game changing for my productivity.
24. A magnetic responsibility chart you'll love because it's customizable based on whatever your child is ready to start doing. From loading the dishwasher to simply saying "please" and "thank you," this chart can grow with your child and your family.
25. A foldable potty seat with a step to help those little legs reach the potty. The step is wide enough to allow space for turning around once they get to the top and it stores easily for when you need to reclaim the throne.
26. A *magic* detangling and conditioning spray that will save you from long combing sessions and lots of crocodile tears — both yours and your child's. It works wonderfully on all types of hair, smells great, and keeps hair and curls frizz-free.
27. A bedside shelf and organizer to keep all of the nighttime essentials close. I got my daughter a shelf when she moved to a loft bed, and we keep her water bottle, a box of tissues, and a flashlight on it — all things she doesn't have to climb down for in the middle of the night. One less trip into their room to get them a drink of water? Yes, please!
28. A car seat buckle release tool that will protect your nails *and* your nerves from how surprisingly difficult unbuckling is.
29. A pair of seat-back organizers that help keep your car organized and kid-friendly. They even include a pouch to keep a tablet for those long car rides! Toys and snacks not rolling under the seat and into the abyss? Sign me up.
30. A set of changing pad liners that will turn late-night blowouts into quick clean-ups and get you back to bed ASAP. These changing pad liners go right on top of the cover, are washable, and protect the changing pad cover from stains. If the liner gets soiled, just grab it, put it into the laundry, and place another one right under baby to continue getting the job done.
