2. An interactive playmat so your baby can explore and get some tummy time and you can get down on their level and snap the cutest pictures ever.

Target

Promising review: "This is the best little mat. It’s easily washable and my baby loves it. We bought two so that we can leave one home and bring the other when we go places. This is a staple for anyone with a baby. The mirror and different textures make it super fun for baby." —Shelbs

Price: $19.99

5. A swivel glider and reclining chair because you'll have a comfortable spot to help your little one relax before resting. This is a big deal when your arms become someone's favorite place to nap!

Price: $399.99 (available in two colors)

6. A super soft crib sheet that doesn't make you choose just one color for the theme. Play up whichever ones you want!

Target

Promising review: "I absolutely fell in love with this sheet as soon as I saw it and had to grab it for our soon-to-be-born baby. Such a cute pattern and color scheme. The orange shade does come off more brown to me in person, but doesn’t change my opinion. Great price! Will definitely purchase another from this brand." —Mamma P

Price: $9.99

7. A colorful and sweet rug to add some pops of color to your tiny human's room — it has a pretty sprinkle design and will look great next to a bookshelf, crib, or diaper-changing station.

Target

Promising review: "Got this rug for our baby’s nursery. Had an incident with puréed carrots, and we needed to try washing the rug. The instructions say to wash in a commercial front-loading washer on cold, normal cycle and to dry low. I followed those instructions, and the rug is as good as new after cleaning. Glad to know it holds up well. The rug is so cute but thin, so we keep it on the carpet and that works. It’s soft and the baby enjoys playing on it." —EveyrhingIsLove

Price: $65+ (available in three sizes)

8. A changing table that's sleek and simple, so you can repurpose it and use it long after the diaper-changing days are done. Just think of all the art supplies it could hold!

Target

Promising review: "I didn't want anything too bulky or pricey. This worked out just right. The shelves are big enough for baskets to store diapering needs. I use the second shelf for some easy-to-reach toys and books." —Great Value 

Price: $119.99 (available in four colors)

9. Or, if you're more into neutrals, an area rug that will match any decor and will certainly come in handy when you're tiptoeing out of the room. Shhh!

Target

Promising review: "The gray isn't overpowering at all — it's very subtle. I'd say it's less than shown in the picture. Blends well with our taupe, gray, beige color scheme. Great quality as well." —KPE

Price: $100+ (available in two sizes)

10. A roll of herringbone stripe peel-and-stick wallpaper for an accent wall or maybe even a pop of pattern in the baby's closet. Whatever you do, trust me — you will *stick* the landing with this one.

Target

Promising review: "With this being my first experience using peel-and-stick paper, I found it fairly easy to work with. I had repositioned a couple of pieces a few times and have not had any issues with the paper peeling. I will echo other reviews that the paper can easily be applied to textured walls as well. The pattern is beautiful! I’m very happy with the overall outcome of my project and would purchase this brand again." —EMKRealtor

Price: $34

11. A darling, magical mobile that will help calm your baby when it's time for rest. A peaceful, sleeping baby? That's the real unicorn.

Target

Promising review: "This is so sweet and darling! I really regret not getting it for my first little one. My baby loves to look up at it, and I feel comfortable having it over her crib because it’s definitely sturdy. I also like that you can swing it over to the side so that if you’re a little nervous having it over the baby at night, you can just swing it out of the way. And the soft little characters are a great addition to my little ones unicorn-themed room." —TinaTargetMama

Price: $44.99

Price: $27.99

15. A stellar lamp with a perfect glow that will have you starry-eyed. And by starry-eyed, we mean bleary-eyed, but that has everything to do with the baby and nothing to do with the lamp!

Target

Price: $41.99

16. An 8-inch faux plant because we all need a little greenery in our lives, but let's be honest ... your focus will be on growing your own sweet little sprout, and you won't have time to water something new.
