1. Momcozy's ChangeGo stroller for $105 off (the deal we parents have been waiting for!) — with a single-to-double adjustable design and four different configurations, this stroller can grow and adapt right along with your little family. Reviewers love how smooth it is, even on uneven terrain, and the impressive amount of storage space it offers. Plus, it's just darn good lookin'.

Amazon

Promising review: "We are IN LOVE. This rolls like a dream and looks so sleek. I love that there are so many different ways to set it up. The basket has plenty of storage space. When you fold it up to put it in the car it is a little bulky, but that doesn’t bother me. It is super easy to fold and change out the different parts. Overall the value is amazing and I am very pleased." —Bella

Price: $594.99 (originally $699.99)

2. A Ms. Rachel Official Surprise Learning Box for 53% off parents (and their mini-mes) will recognize from her videos — it'll help encourage vocabulary development, offer a cute way to play peek-a-book, and has a bonus learning card with even more ways to engage!

Amazon

Promising review: "We love Ms.Rachel, and once I discovered she had a line of toys coming out, my heart and pockets ached, but luckily, everything is reasonably priced, and this surprise box was worth every dime. This was one of the many Ms.Rachel toys I gifted to my daughter for Christmas. It’s one of her treasured toys as she loves to take items out and put them back in and watch the corresponding Ms. Rachel episode. It’s also super fun for her when I turn on my "Ms.Rachel voice" and play with it, saying, “Take it out, take it out, take it…out!” As you can tell Ms. Rachel lives in my head rent-free 😂" —ArganisePrice: $13.99 (originally $29.99) — and check out all the Ms. Rachel deals here

3. An Owlet Dream Sock for 27% off (tied for its lowest price ever, folks) — a tech-lovers dream baby accessory. Keep this around their tiny toes at night to monitor their pulse rate and oxygen levels. If anything falls outside of the normal ranges an alert will go off on your phone so you can wake up and check on things in an instant!

Amazon

Promising review: "After using this for almost three months now I absolutely love the Owlet! As a new mom who's been afraid of SIDS as I have a family member whose baby brother passed away from SIDS before all of this technology to prevent it, I was afraid of the possibility and this product has helped me to sleep at night. I had pre-partum and now postpartum depression and one thing I have never worried about every single night is my baby sleeping soundly all throughout the night. I do still check on him but I'm not panicking trying to figure out if my baby is breathing. I love being able to see his sleep cycle and keep up with his movements! To anyone looking for a great gift for a new mom to be able to use for a long time as well as for several children, this product is the one to go with. I feel that in this day and age, this is not a want but a need, especially for parents with anxiety!" —Alice Wood

Price: $199 (typically $273.89)

4. A 100-piece set of Picasso Tiles at Amazon for 30% off (it's the cheapest they go for), which reviewers say work with and are comparable to Magnatiles (so if the kiddo in your life already has some, these can expand their set), for some extra bang for your buck *and* a sale on top of that.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "I wish I had known about these sooner! PicassoTiles are *exactly* like Magna-tiles but way more affordable. We just received the 100 tile set today - an early birthday gift for our soon-to-be-four-year-old. We have two sets of Magna-tiles - one with the grommets (purchased new last year) and one without (purchased second hand [no idea how old they are]). The PicassoTiles are the same weight and size as the MagnaTiles and have the same exact magnets. They do not have metal grommets, but the old MagnaTiles are indestructible, so I know that these will be too. And PicassoTiles are much prettier in my opinion, because they are slightly more translucent and have brighter colors. They integrate into the collection seamlessly. I highly recommend this product. And if you are considering buying any kind of magnetic tile toy for your child, I recommend purchasing as big a set a you can for versatility of play. Our son has played with these all day and night off and on every single day since we bought them last year. After integrating the new PicassoTile set, he hugged his enormous structure and declared them his favorite...twice. A wonderful toy!" —skater mom

Price: $27.99 (originally $39.99)

5. A universal stroller board for 20% off — there's no need to spend big $$ on a custom standing pad stroller, just attach this (at an already discounted price!) to the stroller you own and turn it into a spiffy extra spot for your older kiddo!

amazon.com

Promising review: "This attaches to both of my strollers very easyily and the kids love it. We live on on dirt road and it still works perfect. We have three kids who are three and under, so the extra space is helpful." —Erin

Price: $47.99 (originally $59.99)

6. A Shark robot vacuum for 50% off — an affordable but powerful machine with a self-emptying base, HEPA filtration, and 360-degree home mapping tech so it *won't* repeatedly run into the leg of your coffee table or get stuck under your couch. And the self-cleaning brushroll?? Genius! As a parent, you don't have time for anything, but a robot vacuum does.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "If I could give this vacuum 10 stars I would!!! I have four dogs and a long haired cat. My house always felt dirty and hair was always everywhere. I dreaded vacuuming because I would have to repeat areas so much, it took forever!! I bought this months ago but for reasons I won’t go into I just started using it a week ago. I ran it 3 times for the first few days and every time it picked up sooooo much!! I’ve been running it two to three times a day for a week now. I did not map anything because I am changing the room soon and will map it then. But just going on its own it gets everywhere thoroughly! Because I don’t have it mapped it does areas multiple times sometimes and sometimes it makes it rounds and then docks itself. Did I mention it’s amazing! It knows how to get itself unstuck (I’ve had it happen once where it got so stuck it died trying to get out) other than that it always gets out. It goes around places and objects. Its suction is great! I have carpet and hard floors and it has NO trouble getting to and from each flooring. I LOVE THIS VACUUM! Everyone needs one! It’s great quality!" —Jessica Richoux

Price: $297.99 (originally $599.99)

7. A Vitamix Propel 750 blender for 40% off (a new lowest-ever price!) with all the reviewer-beloved Vitamix features (quality build, super-fast and thorough blending, easy cleanup) with *five* preset options — smoothie, hot soup, frozen dessert, dips and spreads, and self-cleaning — to make whipping up family meals and treats even easier.

Amazon

Promising review: "Bought this product on sale, and it was worth the investment. It blends better than any other blender that I have had. Its multiple options allow for anything from smoothies to purees. I love that I can make soup with this blender. It has plenty of power and a large enough volume to make plenty for a small household. It is also easy to clean! If it is on sale, and you need a better blender, I definitely recommend it. Otherwise, it is very expensive at full price." —Daniel & Amanda

Price: $379.95 (originally $629.95; typically $578.84 from a third-party seller; available in four colors) — and shop all the Vitamix deals here!

8. A Graco Extend2Fit car seat for 35% off — the 2.0 version, which is a new lowest-ever price. It converts from a rear-facing seat to a forward-facing seat (and a highback booster seat!) and has up to 5" of additional rear-facing legroom to keep your tot safe and comfy in the car for years.

Amazon

Promising review: "Easy to install, great quality, cute design, my daughter loves it, and it is the perfect size. The latch is great; her other car seat dug into her neck, and this one doesn’t at all. It is perfect for safety and comfort. All around super happy over this car seat 💯 recommend for anyone needing a new car seat." —Michael Cross

Price: $149.49 (originally $229.99; sale price only available in the 2.0 versions; available in seven colors) — and shop all the Graco deals here

9. A Watermelon Ball for up to 24% off because kids will invent 12 new pool games before you even finish applying sunscreen. This thing sinks, floats, bounces, and dribbles *underwater*, which basically makes a magic trick disguised as a pool toy.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "This is an awesome pool toy for kids! It keeps them entertained and works for all kinds of games — basketball, soccer, keep-away, you name it. It’s especially fun with a group (three or more is ideal), but even solo, it’s still a blast. Just make sure to fill the ball completely with water — if there’s even a little bit of air left inside, it’ll float instead of sinking like it’s supposed to. Once it’s filled properly, though, this thing is unbeatable. Highly recommend it — kids are going to love it!" —Losem

Price: $18.99+ (originally $24.99+; available with or without an LED light)

10. A Tushbaby hip carrier for up to 35% off that'll keep you from straining your back when your kid simply insists on being carried all the time. Reviewers love how comfortable it is and also go wild over the amount of pockets it has for all sorts of gear (including your own phone, keys, and wallet).

amazon.com

It's recommended for children between 8 and 45 pounds and can be used in four different holding positions — feeding/breastfeeding, side carrying, front facing, and face-to-face. See why this mama calls the Tushbaby "the best invention for parents of young children" on TikTok

A true Brooklynite, my daughter started *insisting* on walking outside at 11 months old. This side carrier helps us move things along faster when she gets tuckered out. I love using this on the subway, as she can sit down and move around without my needing to get her out of a carrier. It's also stellar for breastfeeding on the go, whether I'm sitting or standing. BTW, Tushbaby is a small biz run by three California mamas and specializes in products that bring a little more ease to everyday parenting life.

Promising review: "This has been one of MANY items I have purchased thanks to TikTok, and I'm glad I did. Super easy to use, easy to adjust, and most importantly it helps with support tremendously. It comes with pockets and a place to hold bottles/sippy cups, which can be very handy. My 8-month-old weights around 30–35 lbs, and he's basically attached to me 24/7, carrying all day was killing my back and arms! Thank God for this invention, my arms and back can rest." —Jennifer Calle

Price: $54.99 (originally $84.99; available in three colors)

11. Bose QuietComfort wireless headphones for up to 43% off if you're in need of a reliable, noise-canceling pair that'll block out the sounds of your colicky kid when you are *trying* to help them out but are getting way overstimulated. With a padded over-ear fit, 24 hours of battery life on a single charge, and phenomenal audio, they will help keep you calm even when your baby...isn't.

Amazon

P.S. These come with an audio cable with an in-line microphone so you can use them without a Bluetooth connection or even when the battery is depleted!

These were my own summer Prime Day purchase last year! I'd had an older version for *several* years, and, like their predecessor, this new pair has basically become part of my body. Noise-canceling headphones were a really important tool for me to have on hand with my newborn. I love having them on during stressful nights of teething because they keep my tired self from going too wild when my kid just needs to be comforted. Bless. Bose.

Promising review: "It's hard to imagine that these headphones leave any room for improvement. Their spatiality and clarity are excellent. The accuracy of music reproduction is good enough even to pick up occasional flaws in the original recordings and/or differences in recording processes. Noise cancellation has improved dramatically vs Bose's original entry years ago. Great for use in a gym environment as well as airline travel." —Harrison

Price: $199 (originally $349; available in five colors) — shop all Bose deals here

12. A three-string Loog Mini mini acoustic guitar for 20% off, because even your taste in children's toys is intimidatingly cool. Each guitar comes with flashcards to help guide kids, with chord diagrams and a Loog guitar app (in case your teaching skills aren't quite up to par on their own) so that they have all the tools they need to become your in-house rock star.

Amazon

Promising review: "My daughter and I are learning how to play the guitar together. Even if we don't become rock stars the quality time we are spending together is all the justification I needed to make the purchase. The strings are perfect for her little fingers." —JSpriggins

Price: $95.20 (originally $199; available in three colors)

13. Outlet covers for 20% off with a hidden pull handle, so that exposed electrical sockets (your toddler's favorite temptation) can be a parenting problem you quickly check off your list.

Amazon

One pack includes 45 cover plugs, so these may become my new parenting party favor. I got these after a coworker recommended them in her own post (oh yeah, I'm a total sucker for BuzzFeed shopping posts) and they have been a success! 

Promising review: "I purchased these specifically because I've had the regular type and get tired of breaking my nails trying to get them out. Plus, a toddler is watching how you do it, so these are a bit more stealth if you cover your hand while flipping out the handle." —Fair Comprehensive Reviews

Price: $6.72 (originally $8.50; also available in packs of 32, 42, and 55)

14. A Fire HD kids tablet (the latest model) for 45% off if you don't want to worry about what your little one is up to. It's designed for kids ages three to seven and comes with a year-long Amazon Kids+ subscription, which gives the family access to thousands of books, games, videos, and more. And btw, the battery life lasts up to an impressive 13 hours!

Amazon

Promising review: "Why didn't I buy this sooner? This tablet is awesome. My 2yr old and soon to be 4yr old they have been sharing an old iPad mini and after constantly fighting (anyone with tots will understand) with sharing it I finally thought it was time to splurge on them getting one to themselves after constantly researching this seemed like a great choice and it was! It’s easy to use, has great performance and more importantly is very educational which is the best part it has loads of educational content for them so at least if they are gonna be on the tablet I know they are learning something while on it not to mention I love how I can stop them and monitor them on the tablet all from my phone. Great buy!" —KattieMae

Price: $104.99 (originally $189.99; available in four colors)

15. *The Amazon Coat* for 39% off in adult sizes and a spiffy 43% off in kid sizes, because you all deserve a chicly oversized parka that'll keep you truly toasty warm. Mega style, mega warmth, and pockets for days? Yeah, this is my fave winter coat. I have talked so many people into getting this jacket because it really is *that good*.

BuzzFeed / Maitland, m.media-amazon.com

Promising review: "Let me start by saying, my husband says that I am obsessed with coats. Out of probably 20 winter coats, this is now my absolute favorite! I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this coat; I love everything about it! The quality is outstanding! I have had every expensive brand-name winter coat, but have never ever had one that has kept me this warm! I I'm not even looking forward to the warmer months because I don't want to put this coat away!! Every time I wear it, I get at least one, 'I love your coat!'" —Suzi Linthorst

Price: kids sizes: $79.99 (originally $139.99; available in sizes 4/5T–11/12) adult sizes: $99.99 (originally $149.99; available in women's sizes XXS–5X and 13 colors) — and see other Orolay brand coats on sale here

16. 2nd Gen AirPods Pro for 40% off (the lowest they've gone for!) that make a great gift for older kiddos — or yourself tbh! With active noise cancellation, spatial audio, three silicone tips for customized fit, and over 24 hours of listening time with the included case, the AirPods Pro 2 give you a *ton* of bang for your buck.

amazon.com

Promising review: "I've been sitting on the sidelines for about five years with purchasing these. I've purchased these for my kids, but I've always just used the wired versions and was just fine. But let me tell you, I've been missing out! I didn't realize how much the wires got in my way or how annoying it was when I would accidentally snag them on something and yank them out of my ears. Plus, the sound quality and noise cancellation are amazing! Don't wait, buy these now!" —Brent A Reynolds

Price: $149 (originally $249) — shop all the Apple deals here

17. An LCD writing tablet for 30% off for your budding artist. The best part? They can play with this in the car or a restaurant without dropping markers all over the place. With this gift all your kiddo has to do is swipe the included pen to reveal a *rainbow* of colors.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "This tablet has entertained my 4-year-old grandson for hours at a time. He loves that he can erase at will and that the drawings are multicolored. I highly recommend this item for 18 months old and up. I bought a pink one for our 18-month-old granddaughter, and she too is just enthralled with it and the 'power' she has to erase, create, erase, create! They loved them so much, that we bought another set of two different colors so that they would have them at home as well as at 'Grammy's.'" —Kindle Customer Red Heart

Price: $13.99 (originally $19.99; available in two sizes and four colors)

18. The TikTok-famous Bissell Little Green carpet and upholstery cleaner for 34% off for knocking out pet (and kid!) stains, spills, and more — without having to waste a lot of your valuable storage space.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "Yup, saw it on TikTok and had to buy it. My car's upholstery was so dirty from my dogs and years of NOT getting it deep cleaned. This is a game changer. I should've taken a before and after because it was awesome. Not to mention how satisfying it is seeing the dirty water get sucked back into the tank. Easy to prep. Easy to use. Easy to clean. I definitely recommend. This will be perfect for other things in the house as well because if it can tackle MY car with two big dogs, it's gold." —Taylor L.

Price: $81.99 (originally $123.59) — shop all Bissell deals here

19. A two-pack of Tubby Todd All Over Ointment for 20% off — the first recorded time it has been on sale via Amazon! It'll be parents' saving grace for any skincare issues their tyke throws their way. It's formulated with plant-based materials like Jojoba Esters and Camellia Leaf Extract that naturally moisturize skin but *without* any heavy fragrances. It's a thick, reliable cream that soaks in quickly and works wonders on everyone and everything.

Amazon

Tubby Todd products are great for sensitive skin, are designed for all ages, and have been clinically Dermatologist and Pediatrician tested. Additionally, Tubby Todd is a family-owned small business.

Heather Braga: "I have yet to come into contact with a parent who doesn't rave about the Tubby Todd brand — and for good reason. I've been using their bath products since my son was born but only recently gave their All Over Ointment a try with my daughter. I don't know why I waited so long. It's INCREDIBLE. She has more sensitive skin than my son did as a baby, and a little of this has gone a long way in keeping her skin moisturized. Most recently, I used it on my son's cheeks after he had been rubbing them against his sleeve nonstop, causing bright red irritations. I applied it before bedtime, and by the morning, he was as good as new — no redness left at all!"

Promising review: "OK, so I’m ready to join the hype. My son has terrible eczema on his neck and his armpits. They were inflamed so badly. I took him to the doctor about five times because it didn’t look like eczema to me. It just looked like a weird rash. They kept telling me that there was nothing they could do, it’s just eczema. I’ve tried Aquaphor, Vaseline, Eucerin, and Aveeno, but nothing worked. It just seemed like it made it worse. I bought this cream and literally the next day, his eczema got better. I am so amazed and extremely sold! This company could take my money any day lol I am so thankful and grateful because I was becoming very concerned! If you are looking for something that can help your baby's eczema, please get this! You will not regret it!!" —Kyla

Price: $46.40 (originally $58; available in two scents)

20. A Sereed balance bike for 28% off for the toddler in your life who's ready to zoom instead of waddle. This tiny ride-on is the cutest gateway to independent cruising: low to the ground, easy to steer, and light enough for your tot to tote around all by themselves. And it's hit its lowest price ever for Prime Day, which feels like a sign (hint, hint).

amazon.com

Promising review: "We purchased this for our toddler, and it has quickly become one of their favorite things to play with! The design is both fun and functional — it’s sturdy, safe, and easy for little ones to maneuver on their own. I really appreciate how it encourages independent play and helps build balance and coordination. The smile on our child’s face every time they hop on is priceless. Highly recommend this to any parent looking for a fun, well-made riding toy that will keep their little one moving and entertained!" —Debi Epstein

Price: $32.99+ (originally $45.99+; available in eight colors)

21. An eight-pack of Scrub Daddies and Mommies for 20% off, but it's actually more like 50%, because the sponges in this pack come to just $2.50 a pop, and they retail for $4.99 each at my local Target. It is officially *the* best time to stock up on the best sponges on the market!

Amazon

If you don't know what makes a Scrub Daddy different from other sponges, let me tell ya: it's firm in cold water (for tougher messes) but soft in warm water (for lighter cleaning). The scratch-free material is safe on tons of surfaces: glass, stainless steel, cast iron, nonstick, chrome, copper, etc. And if you thought the face was just a gimmick, think twice — the eye and smile holes are great for quickly cleaning large and small utensils! And you can clean it right in the dishwasher. And Scrub Mommies are dual-sided, with the Scrub Daddy foam on one side and a soft sponge on the other!

Promising review: "My dishes have never been so insulted. I bought Scrub Daddy hoping for a good scrub, but I didn't expect a relationship counselor for my dirty pots. This thing judges my burnt-on messes and then, with a smirk, obliterates them. My old sponges are now in therapy, wondering where they went wrong. 10/10, would recommend if you enjoy your dishes being shown who's boss." —Terrence reid

Promising review: "Get yourself a scrub daddy. I’m obsessed and will never go back to a normal sponge again. Works better than anything else to clean, never molds, and is one of my all time favorite cleaning products." —adriana ibanez

Price: $19.99 (originally $24.99)

22. An inflatable bounce castle for 35% off to turn your living room (or backyard) into a royal palace. It'll become the scene of endless hops, flips, and giggle-fueled collisions. And when your kiddo's all done? They'll be completely drained of energy. Win!

amazon.com

Promising review: "If you're considering buying this, you can't go wrong! Got it for my two-year-old's birthday party, it was perfect for the price, and now we have it in our living room. Great quality. We've had five toddlers and a couple of older kids playing in it. We also play in it with our two-year-old." —Amazon Customer

Price: $41.31 (originally $63.99)

23. A 36-pack of Play-Doh for 25% off so the next time it's raining and everyone's all, "I'm BORRRED," you can unleash go into Full Chaos Play-Doh Build Mode to pass the time.

amazon.com

Promising review: "The 36-pack Play-Doh set is an absolute creativity booster! With a wide variety of colors, it offers endless possibilities for sculpting, mixing, and imaginative play. My daughter loves crafting everything from animals to pretend food, bringing her ideas to life with vibrant shades. The quality is excellent, with soft, pliable dough that’s easy to mold and shape. Whether she’s making detailed sculptures or playful scenes, this set keeps her engaged for hours." —Arwen

Price: $20.49 (typically $27.49) 

24. A 32-pack of Energizer AA batteries for 33% off because now that you have kids, holidays and birthdays have become a fruitless game of "hide and seek" through your junk drawers, while you desperately try and find batteries to turn on whatever gadget or gizmo your kids got.

Amazon

Promising review: "Great box of batteries for all your children's toys, Xbox and PlayStation controllers, anything you need them for a really really good price." —David scruggs

Price: $13.29 (originally $19.98) — and see all the Energizer deals here

25. Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza for 20% off, a DEEPLY beloved, fast-paced card game suitable for kids and adults that will have everyone in fits of high stake giggles in no time. Bonus: each game only lasts 10–15 minutes, so you can go one or a few rounds depending on how much time you've got together.

Amazon

Promising review: "Bought this by accident because I thought these were baby flash cards. Saw these were actually a card game and tried it with my husband and fell in love with this game. It's fun and competitive :D" —ChocorateChippu

Price: $7.99 (typically $9.99)

26. Vacation's Classic Whip SPF 30 for 30% off, a wildly beloved "dessert for your skin" that feels so lightweight and decadent to apply that reviewers can't get enough of it. (No, REALLY. This is selling out all over 😭.) Not only does it feel ridiculously indulgent, but it's water-resistant and sensitive skin-friendly. Plus, your kids are going to think putting on sunscreen is hilarious. Win, win.

amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of Vacation's Classic Whip SPF 30 in action.

Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information!

Promising review: "Smells SO GOOD! This sunscreen smells so nostalgic and I love the whipped cream play. Makes me much more excited about putting sunscreen on. A little bit goes a long way, and it’s pretty thick on the skin. Breaks down into a lotion kind of and turned out to be too oily for my face specifically, but love it for my body. Will be buying this again!" —avery

Price: $16.10+ (typically $23) — with a free air freshener included!

27. A Munchkin Night Owl Stroller for 20% off (best price ever!) so your stroller doesn't get damaged or — heavens forbid — lost when tossed around in the airport's baggage claim. This is the perfect travel stroller once your little one is able to hold themself up since it can easily be compacted, comes with a carrying case, can fit in a plane's overhead compartment, AND has a little light built-in so you can see where you're walking when sightseeing lasts well past sunset.

amazon.com

Samar Hadri: As someone who takes over a dozen trips a year, this stroller is absolutely perfect for my family. After traveling with a baby and suffering through the pain of having to juggle a child and a suitcase while walking to baggage claim, this stroller (which fits in the overhead compartment) was perfect. I can carry it in its accompanied carrying case, and when it's time to use it, it can easily unfold! Plus, I love the lil' lights, which come in handy when I'm trying to take nightly walks and don't feel like carrying my phone in flash mode to see the road ahead of me.

Promising review: "This was/is AMAZING!! Very easy to use! Quick! Sturdy and PERFECT for the airport!!! Had 3 people there order one in front of me after seeing me fold it up and then open it back up!! RECOMMEND 100000000000%!!!" —ChristyH

Price: $203.30 (originally $254.13)

28. Built's "Puff Protein Bars" for 20% off that are basically chocolate-covered marshmallows that also, by some witchcraft, have 17 entire grams of protein in them?? And NO weird aftertaste. If you are a parent who is often in a state of "I need protein or I will bite someone's brain off," I am telling you, nothing in this WORLD will feel better than pulling one of these out of your bag.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Hello, I'm a walking cliché of Woman In Her Mid-30s Who Is Very Obsessed With Protein, since it took me three decades to realize I'm in a much better mood all day if I cram it in at every opportunity. I'm very, VERY picky about the protein bars I'll eat — Barebells and Nick's are my go-tos — and these Built bars knocked it out of the park! They have a truly marshmallow-like consistency and the most ridiculously satisfying texture and chewiness. The flavors I've tried have all been spot-on, and they don't leave any kind of aftertaste. I am perpetually out and about and in need of a snack, so I have one of these in my purse at all times!

Price: $23.99+ for a pack of 12 (typically $29.99; available in 10 flavors).

Don't miss out on the grocery deals available this Prime Day.

Squirrels need to eat, too, but I get it. These wire-free security cameras come with two-year batteries and a free 30-day Blink trial. The subscription is not necessary, but it offers extra features like video storage and person detection. 

Promising review: "I’ve never owned a home camera before so I asked around and did my research…The app alone is AMAZING! The quality of the video is great and you can adjust it how you want as far as motion detection. The night vision...WILD! And the fact that I can talk to my dog and hear him if he barks…I would definitely recommend both indoor and outdoor cameras. THEY ARE AMAZING!!!"—Jomyra Malave

30. A pack of Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamps for 30% off so you can polish your toilet without ever having to pick up a dirty toilet brush, which just might convince your kids to actually *chose* cleaning the bathroom during Saturday chores. The stamp releases the cleaning gel, which foams and cleans your toilet.

Amazon

Promising review: "I was sooo skeptical and was confused about how they’d work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference. Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They’re super interesting but they do the job." —Janet

31. A 7-in-1 climber for 62% off that'll bring the playground inside in the best possible way. With rainbow slats, multiple climbing elements, and a foldable design for easy storage, it's basically a toddler jungle gym that won't make you wince every time you walk past it. And right now it's at the lowest price it ever goes for.

amazon.com

Promising review: "This set has been an absolute lifesaver for keeping our toddler active and engaged both indoors and outdoors! The colorful design is even more stunning in person, and it brightens up our playroom while being just as fun to use in the backyard. It's incredibly versatile and sturdy, offering endless ways to play. My son loves climbing, sliding, and even using the ramp as a racetrack for toy cars. The semi-circle doubles as a tunnel and a rocking chair, making it a great sensory tool for little explorers. It’s ideal for developing gross motor skills and sparking creativity. The quality is excellent, and it feels built to last through all the climbing, sliding, and imaginative play our toddler can dream up. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a safe, engaging, and adaptable play solution!" —Clay Sheppard

32. A Peppa Pig version of Monopoly Junior for 50% off you can count on to make your kids more excited than ever for a family game night. Beware, you might all fight over who gets to be Daddy Pig, though (dibs!!!)

Amazon

Promising review: "I bought this board game for my granddaughter, and it’s been an absolute hit. She’s a Peppa Pig fan, so seeing her favorite characters on the board made her light up with excitement. It’s a fun, simplified version of Monopoly that’s easy for little ones to understand and play without getting overwhelmed. I especially love that this game gives her a break from the constant screen time on iPads and tablets, which is something I’m very mindful of. It’s important to me that she engages in activities that stimulate her mind and allow for face-to-face interaction, and this game does exactly that. We’ve had some wonderful bonding time playing together, and it keeps her entertained while learning basic counting, money skills, and taking turns. I highly recommend this to any family with young kids—fun, educational, and most importantly, screen-free." —Bling Queen

33. A *red* Toniebox Audio Player Starter Set for 38% off, which is essentially a tiny stereo that toddlers can control all on their own, just by swapping out which character magnetically sits on top of it. Each individual figure tells different stories and sings different songs — it's a great way to keep kids entertained without a screen.

Heather Braga / BuzzFeed, Amazon

This toy has bought me so much time. My kids adore theirs — even though they're only 3 and 1 — they have no problem understanding how to turn the Toniebox on, change the volume, and place different characters on top to tell various stories. He's a big fan, as am I! It can also be used while it's charging, so there's no need to worry about your toddler having a meltdown if they want to play with it while the battery is drained (phew). This specific kit comes with the Toniebox as well as Tonies figures of Woody, Lightning McQueen, Simba, Winnie-The-Pooh, and Playtime Puppy.

There are so many different Tonies you can add to keep the fun going — check 'em out.

34. 33% off a Nanit monitor and wall mount to help you keep a watchful eye on your babe while they sleep — you can also easily see stats on how long they've been asleep or if they're standing and not-so-patiently waiting for you to come scoop 'em up.

amazon.com, amazon.com

I switched to the Nanit monitoring system when my daughter was born because the app has an incredible split-screen option that lets me watch both kiddos at once — it's been a game changer. It's super easy to set up, and once you've done so, there's nothing more to do but the occasional software update. The app itself is simple: it shows you a view of your kiddo's crib, notes how long they've been asleep, if they're crying, or if they're standing. The audio and picture is so clear (including the night mode) and the camera itself is unobtrusive to my kids' rooms' decor. I also love that even if I'm out (rarely) I can check in on my sleeping babies for some peace of mind.

Promising review: "This baby monitor is an absolute parenting game-changer — a solid 10/10 in every possible way! The seamless synchronization with your phone, even when you're away from home, is revolutionary. The real-time alerts for sound and motion keep you informed about every move your little one makes. The standout feature is the ability to meticulously track your baby's sleep patterns, capturing every waking moment, putting down, and sweet falling asleep. Revisiting memories of your baby sleeping is an emotional treasure, and the expert advice on optimizing sleep for your child is a priceless addition. If you seek a baby monitor that seamlessly integrates advanced technology with practical parenting insights, look no further. This monitor has elevated my parenting journey, offering unparalleled peace of mind and heartwarming memories. A resounding 10/10!" —Savannah Wooden

Price: $199.99 (originally $299.99; sometimes $249.99.99 at Amazon)

35. Up to 39% off an Instant Pot Vortex Plus air fryer for fast, easy, delicious meals and snacks that get on the table in record time so you can keep those kiddos tummies full. And given all its features — not only is it an air fryer, but it can also broil, roast, dehydrate, bake, and reheat — you may hardly ever have to turn on your oven at all anymore!

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "I do all the cooking in our house, and I was debating about purchasing an air fryer. I had heard good things about them, but I just did not see myself using an air fryer all that much. I figured it was just another high-priced kitchen gadget that would end up gathering dust. I did a lot of research and watched a YouTube video from America's Test Kitchen where this air fryer came in number one. I decided to purchase this air fryer. I can tell you after a couple of months that I use this product at a minimum of 4 or 5 times a week! I have made pork chops, steaks, and chicken breasts, and it is great for reheating items. But the winner is two things. It makes the very best bacon with little mess, and it makes chicken wings perfectly. I purchased some Buffalo Wild Wings sauces, and my family has buffalo wing night every couple of weeks for one-fourth the cost of going out. It is also very easy to clean and almost no mess at all. If you are considering buying an air fryer, take the leap and get this one. I could truly not recommend it more highly." —wwrrmm1953

36. A set of 12 Rubbermaid Brilliance containers for 20% off (they've only been this cheap one other time in the past year) and made of BPA-free Tritan plastic that's designed to *stay* crystal clear and not absorb any odors. They are truly leak-proof (perfect for meal prep or packed lunches for you and your kids!) and have built-in venting lids for easy reheating.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "For nearly all of my adult life, I was simply getting Gladware or Ziplock, letting them slowly deteriorate over the course of a few months, recycling them (or losing them), lather, rinse, repeat. It finally occurred to me to splurge on some good ones. I'm not one to review things very often, let alone food storage containers, but here we are. I've been so impressed and satisfied with these in just a few months that I feel compelled to tell y'all about them. They're super airtight, the plastic is crystal clear, and they've each been through the wash a dozen times with no particular sign of wear and tear yet. Usually by this point, the Ziplocs are cloudy, warped, have holes, etc. But these guys, they just keep ticking. We've put soup directly in them, frozen them, you name it. Worth the extra few bucks to keep a few more items out of the landfill." —Eric Beneau

37. A set of six foldable storage bins for 38% off, which can hold a ton of stuff — think bulky blankets and comforters, seasonal wardrobe items, all those blankets with characters on them piled up on your kiddo's floor, and anything else that's taking up way too much space elsewhere. These fold down when not in use and have a clear window so you can easily see what's inside without having to rummage through it first.

amazon.com

Promising review: "These bags hold a ton! They are easy to carry, the plastic window makes them very convenient for storage, and they fold up into neat thin squares when not in use. These are a lot more convenient than plastic boxes and can hold an unbelievable amount of stuff." —Daddy's Car

Price: $18.69 for a set of six (typically $29.99)

38. 34% off a full HD Dash Cam (setting a new record for lowest-ever price!), so you can take off on your family summer road trip with some added peace of mind. This gadget features built-in Wi-Fi GPS, night vision, and a parking monitor so all of your bases are covered.

amazon.com

Promising review: "We purchased this camera about 18 months ago and it has now paid for itself 100x over when it provided evidence to the police and insurance that my wife was not the one at fault in an accident that totaled her vehicle, and the other party lied to the police. It was easy to install and had clear instructions. Great suction cup with integrated GPS antenna, which made installation a breeze. The camera will slide off the mount if you want to hide it while parked without removing the entire mount. Crystal clear video, front at 4K and back at 2K, produces high resolution video where you can read license plates and even identify who was driving another vehicle." —Prime Risk

Price: $85.49 (typically $129.99)

39. A Momcozy wearable breast pump for 30% off (lowest price ever!) to free up your hands while you get your kiddo's next meal ready. Now you can finally cook dinner, clean up, rock your baby to sleep, or even lounge around to watch TV without worrying about holding up a manual pump.

amazon.com

Samar Hadri: I don't think it's dramatic to say that my postpartum journey was changed when I switched to these wearable pumps. During the first few weeks after giving birth, I was using a combination of manual and electric pumps — both requiring me to sit still for 15–30 minutes as I attempted to pump as much milk as possible. Since I was trying to pump every two or three hours, I was spending a good chunk of my day attached to a machine, which didn't exactly leave much time for chores or even relaxation. And then I got the Momcozy pumps.

These slide perfectly into my nursing bras and allow me to go around cleaning up, cooking dinner, taking care of my daughter, or simply just lounging in front of the TV. I've even worn these pumps around Disney and while walking around the mall!

The battery life is amazing, and I've gotten more milk in less time than my hospital-grade electric pump! It comes with four flange sizes (17/19/21/24mm) so you can find the perfect fit, and an exquisite storage handbag! Plus, it connects to an app so you can track how much you're pumping and for how long! Highly recommend!

Promising review: "I am so glad I made the decision to purchase this Momcozy M9. My supply dipped, and I didn’t like being stuck on the couch for every pump; it made it hard to make plans and be out in the beautiful weather. I am able to go out and about, with the milk boost selection, I have doubled my milk expression. I am in love! Best purchase I’ve made to date!" —Shana

Price: $188.99 for a two-pack (originally $269.99; available in two colors)

40. And finally, 20% off Death Wish Instant Coffee Packets for parents who, like me, don't brag about how well they can hold their liquor but their caffeine. If you can handle the 300mg of caffeine per cup – these are the beans for your child-rearing life.

amazon.com

Note: According to the Mayo Clinic, up to 400mg of caffeine is safe for most healthy adults. 

Check out a TikTok of the Deathwish Instant Coffee in action. (Also I read at least one review of someone PUTTING THIS IN THEIR MORNING SMOOTHIE, some of you are WILD.) 

Death Wish Coffee is a small business that specializes in coffee pods, grounds, whole beans, and more. 

Promising review: "So let me start by saying that this coffee is delicious and works if you’re someone like me who wants to stay awake. I work night shifts at a hospital, and in the mornings, when I get home, I’m quite tired and sleepy. I made myself a cup of coffee and waited for it to work. Now let me tell y’all!!! This coffee kept me awake for hours!! BOY, WAS I WOWED INDEED … best believe I went ahead and ordered three more boxes. This is now my to-go coffee if I need a BOOST!!!!!! If you like coffee and want to stay awake, then BUY THIS COFFEE!!! I’m happy I no longer have to take naps to get re-energized." —nancy
