You’ll be excited to talk about these at the playground.
A behind-the-seat car organizer because your kids love to ask you for things while you’re driving. This organizer has enough pockets to hold everything your little one needs for a car trip — whether that’s a quick ride to the grocery store or a long haul to visit the grandparents.
Promising review: “SafeFit Car Seat and Stroller Organizer is exactly what I didn’t know I needed! After being fed up with the constant chaos of toys, water bottles, and miscellaneous items all over the car, I installed this in my car, and BOY WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Everything has a place and there’s a place for everything. It’s not bulky or cumbersome. Spacious enough to fit a bunch of things. Worth it. I recommend it.” —Ashley

A rechargeable, Bluetooth-enabled children’s toothbrush with an accompanying app that will get your kiddos pretty pumped to brush their teeth each day and night. Clean teeth without a fight? Take that win.
Tablet not included.
Promising review: “I can’t believe what a good brushing I’m able to give my toddler with this! The app with the stickers is motivating and he likes that his brush is similar to mine so we can brush together. I feel like he’s getting a really good cleaning and the neck is nice and long to reach the back molars.” —Heather

A portable white-noise sleep sound machine for those moments when you’re out and about — like, for example, when you’re getting coffee with a friend and you DESPERATELY need to talk to another grownup. Just throwing that out there.
Promising review: “I love this sound machine and so does my little one! Helps block out noise and helps my 2-month-old sleep. It can get pretty loud if you’d like it to be, which is very convenient. Instead of batteries like our last sound machine had (which sucked) this one includes a charger. I recommend this sound machine!” —Alyssa

A two-pack of stay-put suction plates because you work too hard to see all that freshly prepped food just end up on the floor. Maybe you can eat your meal, too?
Promising review: “Munchkin Stay Put Plates do exactly what they claim to do! STAY PUT! When I place the plate onto the table for my 2-year-old grandson, it cannot be knocked off onto the floor! Saves time and pain in my back from cleaning the floor! Thanks Walmart for carrying them!” —Leah

A universal weather shield for your stroller for those moments when you HAVE to get outside for a reset ASAP — wind, rain, or shine. Not only will this keep the wind and rain out of your little pumpkin’s sweet face, but it also keeps them from touching every single thing in sight.
Promising review: “So this product is great for afternoon showers at the theme parks, but recently with COVID have been able to put to great use when having to be out with my toddler in public. She is protected and not touching everything. I clip a battery-operated fan on her stroller under the plastic for circulation and give her videos for entertainment. Makes grocery shopping for parents much safer and easier!” —tracey

A saline mist that’s safe for little ones, which will help un-stuff the stuffiest of noses. You might want to get two because you’re going to want one for yourself — these are a sick day must-have.
Promising review: “We use this every night with our child. We notice a significant difference on nights when we miss the spray. The spray is easy to use, and my child does not mind it. The product works great and helps my child breathe easily in the night.” —Ashley

And a 3-in-1 Fridababy cool mist humidifier, diffuser, and night-light to ensure your tiny human can breathe a little easier and get to dreamland, giving you all some much-needed rest.
Promising review: “Our newborn tested positive for COVID, and since there’s no meds or remedies for someone so small, we turned to the Frida humidifier, with the vapor drops, and Frida saline mist, with the Frida nose sucker. IT WAS A LIFE-SAVER! Baby boy began to improve by the next day!” —Breanna

A wooden Melissa & Doug magnetic daily calendar, which you might even be able to use to convince your kids that they do, indeed, need a jacket during those times when it’s not shorts weather.
Promising review: “This calendar was purchased a few months ago. It came in perfect condition and included everything shown. I was able to hang it up with a thumb tack, and it’s still hanging up well. I like how it’s like a whiteboard, so if magnets are lost, you can use a dry-erase marker! That’s honestly my favorite feature since my household is like a zoo with three hyperactive boys, all 11 years and younger. Things get lost around here. Lol. It’s a very helpful tool for homeschooling, and our mornings have more structure with it! It gives us lots of opportunities for him to (excitedly) learn about weather, holidays, days of the week, etc!” —Eric

A two-pack of on-the-go Aquaphor that will fit perfectly in your bag and help prevent and heal little red noses and chapped lips. (Cuticles and hands, too!)
Promising review: “I love this product! Yes, it is mostly petroleum, but it works! I use it on my grandson’s diaper rash, my belly roll rash, dry skin in the wintertime, my dry hands before bedtime, and the occasional scrape/rug rash the grandkids get. I love being able to have the purse size all the way up to home size (7oz). It is fragrance-free, which is another plus. It is clear and can just be rubbed in instead of trying to wipe it off or having to go scrub your hands! Can’t live without it.” —mscraun
Price: $6.97
A no-touch forehead thermometer, so you can take your little’s temp and get peace of mind in the middle of the night WITHOUT having to wake up your adorable sleeping dragon.
Promising review: “This thermometer works great. I highly recommend it. It’s easy to use and the batteries are included. I have used it to check the temperature of my kids when they have a fever and are sleeping. The screen changes color depending on the temperature. Which is a great feature. You can easily switch between body temperature and surface. I like that it keeps the last 50 temperatures. It is lightweight and easy to carry it around with you.” —Eduardo
Price: $16.98
A bottle of Miss Mouth’s Messy Eater Stain Treater spray, which will take those spaghetti sauce stains right out of their clothes. Don’t forget to take a picture of their sweet self covered in sauce…because that will last longer than those stains.
Promising review: “I was blown away by how well this product worked. I sprayed it on my 2 year olds day old strawberry stained shirt and it completely removed the stain. Not even the slightest color was left behind. I have never had a product do that before. I would highly recommend this!!!” —Kyla14
Price: $7.97+ (available in three sizes and three quantities)

A two-pack of faucet extenders because hand washing is such an important skill to teach and your back isn’t meant to hoist a 25-pound child closer to a sink over and over again.
Promising review: “Got these to help with hands that can’t reach far enough for handwashing comfortably. These helped! Allowed water to reach the proper temperature and make washing less of a hardship. Great product for young and also adults! Easy to apply to a standard bathroom faucet. Rubber/plastic end fits over faucet, no leaking or mess made. Can adjust height of downspout to best angle.” —Stacy
