Amazon has a list of products called “Movers and Shakers,” which is pretty much just fancy talk for things that are currently ~trending~.
This week people are desperate to keep themselves (and their animal friends) cool by pretty much any means necessary.
1. A rocket ship model set and a launcher that can actually send it flying up to 1,200 feet ($23.05).
2. A pack of inflatable ice cream cones that look good enough to lick ($6.61).
Most promising review: "I used these for my daughter's Candyland birthday party and they were a big hit! They are huge, brightly colored, and sturdy. Kids of all ages played with them in the pool and they were never damaged." —EmbracingHomemaking

3. A beach umbrella that will create a shady spot for you to lie in the sand ($69.99).
4. A cooling pad for your pet so they don't overheat this summer ($27.64 for a size large).
5. Rolls of adhesive chalkboard paper that can be cut into any shape you want ($24.99 for two).
Cover part of your fridge for the ultimate grocery list, make a calendar, or just cover a whole door and write passive-aggressive notes and little love letters to your roommates.
Most promising review: "These are awesome. I love that they can be cut into different shapes and can be removed and reapplied elsewhere. The chalk wipes off easily with a moist cloth and these just really add character to my kitchen!" —Jason McDuffy
