We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
Hopefully a few episodes of Bluey can hold your kiddo over until you're done speed cleaning.
1. A bottle of Angry Orange Pet Odor Eliminator to add to your shopping list even if you *don't* have a pet — it's a must-have for potty training parents with kiddos who are still having accidents left and right throughout the house.
Angry Orange is a small business!
Promising review:"This odor eliminator is truly amazing and a fantastic solution! With a toddler who is potty training, we faced challenges when she had accidents on the carpet. Toddler urine is notoriously hard to remove, and even after using a vac-style rug cleaner twice, the smell lingered. However, this product covered it up beautifully. Even after it dried, the odor was barely detectable unless you got really close to the carpet. I believe that a few more sprays over time will help eliminate it entirely. Plus, it has a pleasant citrus scent that doesn't smell harsh or chemical-like. All in all, I'm really impressed with its effectiveness; it's the only product that has worked this well for us!" — Collin M.
Get it from Amazon for $17.96+ (available in three sizes).
2. An electric spin scrubber that'll totally speed up your cleaning sesh — it'll hold a charge for 90 minutes, but you certainly won't need that long to scrub your tub! Get your deep clean done way faster so you can get back to playing Magna-Tiles with your tot.
It comes with eight replaceable brush heads, a mesh bag, and a storage hook! It also features an LED digital display that'll shows you your battery usage and speed.
Promising review: "This electric spin scrubber has completely transformed my cleaning routine! The cordless design makes it so convenient to use, and the three adjustable speeds provide the perfect amount of power for different surfaces. I love the eight replaceable brush heads — there's a perfect one for every cleaning task, from the shower to kitchen tiles. T he adjustable long handle is a game-changer for reaching high or low spots without straining my back. Plus, the voice broadcast feature is a nice touch! It's durable, easy to use, and makes deep cleaning effortless. Highly recommend for anyone looking to save time and effort on household chores!" — ~Eddie~
Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in two colors).
3. Miss Mouth's Messy Eater Stain Treater Spray you'll be very glad you bought after you let your kiddo eat spaghetti in public for the first time — trust me.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My 1-year-old has taco meat stains ALL over the sleeves of his shirt. The stains were 2–3 days old, too. I sprayed the shirt, let it sit for about 15 mins, and then washed the shirt with regular laundry soap. Almost every bit of the stains came out. Definitely buying bulk in this product!" — Sloan Avery
Get it from Amazon for $7.97+ (available in a variety of quantities)
4. A dryer vent cleaner attachment that'll pull all of the hard-to-reach pieces of lint out of your dryer — it'll revive your dryer you've been basically running on an endless loop since your kiddo started eating solid foods.
This adapter is compatible with most vacuum cleaner pipes, so all you have to do is attach it to your vacuum and guide it around your dryer to suck up excess and hard-to-reach lint. Too much lint buildup not only slows down the drying process, it's also a fire hazard, so this handy device can actually be considered a safety tool! When my husband and I first moved into our house we were left the previous owner's washer and dryer — which was great! Except, they had a dog that apparently shed A LOT and their hair was embedded deeply in the dryer. There was tons to clean out so that the hair didn't get all over our clothes. This definitely would've done the trick!
Promising review:"Yes, we had a sock in our dryer vent!! This past summer, the lint trap broke on our dryer. Our kids ran the dryer regardless! What a disaster. Received my vacuum kit today, and now my clothes are dry! I sucked up the sock, as well as a piece of lint roller tape. Great product!" — Laurel Enoch
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four colors).
5. Arm & Hammer Deodorizer Odor Busterz you can keep in the bottom of your garbage can or diaper pail to fight off even the stinkiest of smells — the only thing worse than opening your kitchen garbage after throwing out broccoli the night before is opening a poop-filled diaper pail in your baby's room. 🤢
www.amazon.com
I have a similar item in the bottom of my baby's diaper pail and it really does make a difference! Reviewers also note it's been a great addition to their laundry baskets as well.
Promising review:"We consistently take out the garbage from our diaper pail, and even though the odor is sealed into the pail sometimes there can be a lingering odor when you go to change the bag. I decided to pop two of these in the pail underneath the plastic bag to see if it would help combat the smell and it's like magic. We haven't noticed any scent so far and they last a long time, more than three months of odor control! (We have a 3.5-month-old.) Definitely will be throwing one of these into my husband's tennis bag!" — Maddie Vasiliev
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $5.98.
6. A jar of internet-beloved The Pink Stuff, which is an all-purpose cleaning paste that'll help you tackle all of your kid-made messes but make it *~pretty in pink~* at the same time. Your kiddo's attempt at Piccasso-ing your walls won't scare this cleaning product. 😅
After hearing what incredible things The Pink Stuff can do, I finally ordered it and tried it for myself. Honestly, wow! It really does work wonders. I tried it first on my Le Creuset cast-iron pan (seen above, right) and really was amazed at how just one pass with The Pink Stuff (and a scouring brush) took off almost every stain! I can't wait to try it on literally everything in my home that needs a deep cleaning.
Promising reviews:"AMAZING! I was heart broken when I saw that my daughters had wrote on the dresser with SHARPIE! I tried SO MANY different chemicals and nothing worked! I found this on TikTok and said 'Welp let me try my luck and see if it really works!' And let me tell you I am still SHOCKED at how amazing this product works!!!! Yayyyy! I'm so soo soo happy to see my dresser white again!!!!😭😭😭 Thank youuuu!!!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE LITTLE KIDS IN THE HOUSE!!!!" — Gabriela Portillo Solorio
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
7. A cacti-inspired bottle brush cleaning set you'll certainly agree doesn't *~succ~* in the slightest — it'll look cute on your kitchen counter while also doing a fantastic job in helping you scrub all of the yucky milk residue out of your baby's bottles.
Promising review:"I usually don't write reviews. But I love, love this. I think it's so cute. Instead of those normal bottle cleaners that are bright ugly colors. The container that it comes in, it works and does collect the water. Would definitely recommend it, especially as an all-in-one bottle cleaner that looks cute and has a container for the water." — Hinojosas
Get it from Amazon for $13.49.
8. A handheld Dirt Devil vacuum so lightweight you'll be able to clean and dance around your living room to the endless loop of Ms. Rachel songs your kiddos are watching without fear of tripping over a cord.
Promising review:"This vacuum makes me feel like a magical wizard! I used to lug around our upright and use the hose for those annoying corners and stairs, it was awkward and bulky to move around the house. Now I use the upright then follow with this handheld for all the little cracks and crevices the upright can't get. Its also great for those dusty shelves and high up places. I also leave it plugged in at all times cause I have messy kids. Instead of lugging out the upright to clean up crumbs they leave behind I just pull this baby out and clean up whatever mess they make on the spot. This is a must have for parents of small children! Just beware, its powerful! It can pull light/small objects 4–6 inches away from the nozzle and suck them up with ease with its powerful suction." — Nava
Get it from Amazon for $34.
9. A Wet & Forget shower cleaner you can use to clean your shower with the least amount of effort ever — seriously, you just leave it for the day then rinse it off and enjoy how sparkly and clean the glass will be! A must-have for parents who simply don't have the time to deep clean the bathroom each day.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Wet & Forget does an amazing job maintaining my shower's cleanliness with weekly use. As a single parent, I like things that make life easy. First time I used it, I sprayed Wet & Forget on before going to work then rinsed it off when I got home and I wasn't content with all the results yet was impressed at how well it cleaned the chrome which I wipe daily so it doesn't get water spots. I decided to give the shower a good deep cleaning and started using Wet & Forget every Monday and since then, I'm very happy with the results. Personally, I would describe this Wet & Forget as 'a great way to maintain your showers cleanliness thru weekly use.' Bottom line ... you're responsible for the initial cleaning you want to maintain." — My D 1
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two scents).
10. A set of cleaning K-Cups that'll rinse away all the coffee grounds from your past beverages and ensure your next ones taste fresher than ever — you're gonna need 'em now that you have a tiny human to take care of all the time.
Promising review:"I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 keeps clogging, causing inconsistent brew and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues and I especially liked that it was really quick and easy to use… I put the cleaning pod in and ran one cycle, then took the pod out and ran a rinse cycle to clean out any leftover grinds. FAST, EASY, and GREAT results…VERY HAPPY!!" — Corey West
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
11. Affresh cleaning tablets to toss into your dishwasher and easily get rid of that yucky smell that seems to appear after a few washes — it'll banish lime and mineral build-up and leave your dishes (and, more importantly, your kiddos botles and cups) nice 'n' clean.
Just pop them into the tray where you'd normally put detergent (or on the bottom of your dishwasher if you're washing dishes at the same time), and run as usual!
Promising review: "This was simple to use, smelled good, and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the dishwasher after the recommended cleaning cycle. This product actually did what it advertises that it will do! Great results, fairly economical — and by the way — it works!" — Old Southern Charm
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.99.
12. And a box of washing machine cleaning tablets you can use to easily remove any odor-causing residue from inside your machine — you don't want little one's clothes to smell, do ya?
You can use this product on both front-load and top-load washing machines. I ran it through the old washing machine that was left in my new house (beggars can't be choosers!) and it came out nice and clean.
Promising review:"Works great. My washer started smelling like sour clothes. In turn, my clothes were smelling sour as well. I plopped an Affresh Tab in the washer and let it do its magic. After it was done I opened the washer and to my surprise there was no smell at all. This is a six-pack so buy one box for half a year or two boxes, and only have to order once per year. Definitely recommend." — jcski
Get it from Amazon for $11.98 (also available in a six-pack).
13. A pack of Tide To Go pens, because even if you already own one you'd absolutely benefit from stocking up and keeping one in every bag you own — no more worrying about ruining your favorite pants when your toddler squeezes their juice box so aggressively it squirts out all over you (sigh).
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I used this on my daughter's doll that couldn't be put in the washer due to having a voice box. She's had this doll for a while, it's had juice applied on it, the dog has stolen it a few times, plus the material just attracts dirt and fuzz balls. Holy crap what a difference! Saved me from having to go buy a new one." — Chery
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $6.49.
14. A portable car vacuum that'll help you battle the seemingly endless amount of crumbs that endlessly make their way in between your seats now that you have a tiny, messy human as your most frequent passenger.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I was a little skeptical at first seeing all the mixed reviews but I wish I had taken a pic of my driver side 'cause that was the worst of it but there was a lot of buildup from me just not having the time or energy to clean my car but this vacuum is AMAZING! You can see the clear difference between those two photos. 11/10 would HIGHLY recommend." — Kayla
Get it from Amazon for $30.97.
15. A Little Green HydroSteam Cleaner you can use to tackle a whole slew of kid-made messes on a deeper level — it's portable and designed to clean upholstery, carpet, tile, and your car. Seriously, what *can't* this lil' gadget do?
I tested this bad boy out on the white tile in my entryway (which gets super dirty from everyone walking in/out of that area all the time) and my husband and I were blown away! The Little Green HydroSteam did an awesome job making our tile look new again. My husband said it felt very therapeutic going over each tile and watching how fresh they looked after just one pass with this vacuum. One of our friends stopped by and even commented on how clean the tile looked — a win in my book. I feel very confident one of our kids will inevitably spill something terrible on one of our rugs or couches, but I don't have to stress knowing we'll have this tool on hand to help clean it up.
Promising review:"The Bissell Little Green HydroSteam Multipurpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner is a game-changer! I've been using it to clean my car, furniture, and carpets, and it's been amazing. I used it when my 6-year-old decided to squish his banana in the carpet and it made clean up so quick. I love that I can use both steam and cleaner at the same time, or just steam on its own. The powerful suction and quick heating time make cleaning a breeze. The sleek design and large capacity are also big pluses. It's perfect for anyone with kids, pets, or adults who are prone to spills!" — Allison
Get it from Amazon for $189.95.
16. A scrubber brush to attach to your drill (!!!) and help you clean your tub/shower like you've never cleaned it before but without the arm workout (you already get one of those in daily from toting your kids around). You won't think twice about if there's any grime lurking in the tub before plopping your toddler directly in it each night.
The white is a soft bristle, best for wheels, carpet, upholstery, glass, and leather; the yellow is a medium bristle, best for bathroom, bathtub, shower, tile, and porcelain; the green is a medium bristle, best for kitchen, stoves, cabinets, countertops, and linoleum; the blue is a medium bristle, best for boats, pools, canoe/kayaks, hot tubs, and plastics; the red is a stiff bristle, best for outdoors, siding, brick, garage, and gutter; and the black is a hard bristle, best for grills, loose paint, furnaces, ovens, and industrial use.
Additionally, Drill Brush is a small business based in New York!
Promising review:"I've been eyeing these for a few months and finally caved. Man do I regret not picking them up as soon as I saw them! They work GREAT! We rent an apartment that has a 30+ year old shower/tub. I've used everything from abrasive powders, gels that sit to most recently the bathroom magic erasers and nothing really got the grime out. These WORK and they work fast. Ten minutes with my handy drill and the shower has never been cleaner. I love that I don't have to throw money out on cleaning products anymore and that I can be a little more environmentally friendly with no waste and no chemical cleaners! Just a little dish soap, baking soda and a spin of the brush. If you're on the fence, just buy them!" — Becky Adie
Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six strength types).
17. The Clean Ball, a sphere with a cage-like design and a sticky inside that'll collect all the stray Goldfish cracker and pretzel crumbs from inside of your diaper bag with literally zero effort on your end. Absolutely magical.
Amazon
Promising review:"The evidence it works is right there when you pull it out to clean it. It is so covered in crumbs that clearly were in the bottom of my diaper bag and no longer are and it really actually does come clean but stay sticky. Love it. Wish I had it sooner." — Patrick & Camee
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in 10 styles).
18. A stainless steel cleaner you can count on to help you (temporarily) banish all of those sticky little toddler-size fingerprints that have somehow made their way across your fridge and dishwasher....
www.amazon.com
This plant-based cleaner will remove streaks, smudges, and fingerprints from all stainless steel surfaces — sounds very therapeutic to me! Additionally, Therapy Clean is a small business!
Promising review:"This is by far the best stainless steel cleaner I have ever used. So easy to apply and I wipe it off with a clean microfiber cloth. It lasts months and I have twin toddlers that are always touching my appliances. No finger prints at all. I highly recommend. Completely safe , no chemicals. Great product." — martha
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
19. Puracy enzyme-based spot cleaner that'll have your little one's clothes looking like you just pulled them off the rack in a store instead of out from under a car tire.
You can also use it on carpets, bedding, cloth diapers, etc.
Promising review:"I just purchased this. It took stains out of baby clothes and I used it on the fabric on a toddler chair and it looks brand new. I wish I would have taken before and after photos! Love it already! I had read some reviews about it leaking during shipping but I received it with a tight lid in a bag with a spray too lid separate so no leaking!" — Brianne
Get it from Amazon for $22.49.
20. A microfiber spin mop and bucket with over 216,000 5-star reviews on Amazon, which is unbelievable because it's a MOP. It'll likely become one of your most-used cleaning tools now that summer is coming and your little ones will be tracking in all kinds of dirt, grass, and sand in addition to their usual snot and sticky food debris.
My husband asked for this mop for Father's Day in 2022 and has been telling everyone in his life about it ever since. He adores it! It's so easy to use, it's lightweight, and he has no issue squeezing the water out with the spin tool. It's worked wonders on our wood floors!
Promising review:"I never thought a mop could change my life! This mop cuts at least a half hour off my cleaning time and since I can ring it out so well it does a fabulous job on my hardwood floors without worrying about puddles of water which could do damage! The triangular design is great for corners too! I also like how I can toss the head in the washing machine to clean it. I would highly recommend this mop!" — kheiser67
Get it from Amazon for $34.97.
21. A furniture repair kit featuring markers and crayons in a variety of colors you can whip out the second your favorite piece of furniture gets damaged by your kids' wild antics or a chair scrapes into your wood floors.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I really didn't expect much when I ordered this kit. But the 40-year-old chairs were badly scratched (many pets and kids), and I figured, why not try? Wish I'd taken a 'before' photo. I firmly rubbed the burgundy color in. It dried matte, so I washed over the repaired areas with more alcohol on a soft rag. Then gave the leather a gentle buffing. Couldn't be more pleased — or surprised. The chairs truly have a new life!" — Ann
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
22. A washable rug, so when your mini-me inevitably tracks dirt and mud onto the carpet in the nursery, you'll be able to pop it right into the washing machine instead of breaking out all kinds of cleaning gear in an attempt to get it back to an acceptable state.
Ruggable
Ruggable's rugs are honestly a work of art — not just because they look great regardless of what room you put them in, but because they can handle a stain like no other. I have one in my toddler's room and have washed it tons of times already, but my sister (who has three big dogs) has truly put the quality of their rugs to the test. Within a week of owning one she successfully cleaned blood, poop, and coffee off of it without a remnant of a stain left behind.
Promising review:"My husband and I are expecting our first child shortly after the holidays, and this rug was the perfect accent for our new daughter's nursery. It's cute, soft, and best of all, washable so that it can endure many future years of toddler play time!" — Betsy
Get it from Ruggable for $89+ (available in 11 sizes and two styles).
23. A humidifier tank–cleaning fish you'll cherish as much as Ariel (the Little Mermaid) does her BFF Flounder — it'll kill up to 99% of odor causing bacteria in the tank you've been keeping in your baby's nursery to keep their lil' nostrils moist during nap time (amazing).
Amazon
Promising review:"These things are AMAZING! I went from having to Clorox my ultrasonic humidifier tank every few days to every month, if that. I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to not have to worry about it! I feel like they work quite a bit longer than advertised, but that may depend on the water temp if the water is distilled (this is what we use, as our water is REALLY hard otherwise) vs. filtered vs. not, etc. Will definitely buy again!" — CindyR
Get it from Amazon for $5.98.
24. A Dawn Platinum Powerwash dish spray that would be worthy of taking up one of your three Genie wishes — it comes in various delectable scents and works wonders on caked-on food and grease. All you have to do is spritz, let it sit, then rinse it off! Reviewers are obsessed with it — it has over 89,000 5-star reviews. (WOW!!!)
I use this stuff constantly and can confirm it's fantastic. I use it on my frying pans and the grill pans from my griddler (which is ALWAYS a pain to clean). It loosens all the gunk and makes cleaning burnt bits and pieces much easier. It also really does smell incredible — very fresh and delightful! I recently swapped from the "fresh" scent to the "apple" one, and wow, it smells delicious. It also works great for removing stains on clothes (I've seen it remove coffee from a white tee with my very own eyes).
Promising review:"This makes it so easy to keep my sink clear of dishes. I use it constantly throughout the day. Every time I use a dish, I give it a quick spray, wash it, rinse it, and put it in a dish drainer. It is wonderful. I wish it was a little cheaper as I'm constantly using it; other than that, I love it." — Linda W.
Get a pack of four Amazon for $16.88 (available in four scents).
25. Grandma's Secret, a spot remover that'll remind you of all the concoctions your own grandma used to whip up to banish stains from her home. It'll make blood (!!!) pet stains, oil, paint, and other pesky substances vanish into thin air.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This stuff is so amazing. I'm a witness. My 2-year-old baby wrote all over my white leather couch. I tried many different things and nothing worked but Grandma's Secret Spot Remover. I love this stuff." — L. Nix
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.99.
26. A handheld Oxo microfiber duster you can run around the house with to remove dust from every table, shelf, and staircase in your home — an essential task for anyone with a kiddo who insists on crawling EVERYWHERE at the speed of light.
I have this duster and it is faaaab! It really does pick up a *ton* of dust from every crevice of my home — I like to use it on our stairs. I typically just shake it outside to remove the excess dust and then either put it away until next time or get right back to dusting.
Promising review:"I truly hate to dust, but also hate a lot of dust around. I saw these dusters featured online and figured I'd give them a try. They are really great. I just dusted in the downstairs floor, including my study and computer area, keyboard, screen, and all. Easy peasy. I haven't washed the covers yet (I have two), but hope that will work as well." — Judy Rae
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
27. And a duster designed specifically to clean blinds that'll make cleaning those pesky window coverings a breeze — buh-bye dust!
Amazon, www.amazon.com
The set comes with five microfiber sleeves that can be washed and reused.
Promising review:"Really wasn't sure if this was going to work, I've used something similar many years ago. It works remarkably well! Cleans top and bottom of the blinds, is easy to use with some cleaner. Definitely a game changer, I've already cleaned three sets of blinds since I got these today. Bravo!" — Lisa C. Wear
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in two colors).
28. A magnificent toilet cleaning gel stamp from Scrubbing Bubbles, so when you finally get around to thoroughly cleaning your bowl it'll do the heavy lifting until the next time you think to yourself "when was the last time I cleaned this thing?"
I have this product and it really does work! It took me a minute to figure out how to apply it, but after reading the enclosed directions it was a cinch! You quite literally stamp it into the inside of the toilet bowl and leave it be. It smells super refreshing for a long time — as if you've cleaned your toilet every time you flush.
Promising review:"Okay I was so confused when I opened this but honestly it's easy to use and after I completely deep cleaned my bathroom, I tried one of these stamps on my toilet. I was sooo skeptical and was confused 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
Get a set of six from Amazon for $4.44.
29. An instant carpet spot remover spray, so when your little one flings tomato sauce or a smoothie pouch all over your carpet you can say "no biggie" and actually mean it.
Promising review:"This stuff WORKS. It's best to let the area dry completely after spraying.....and I ALWAYS end up either with the stain being completely gone, or at worse 90% gone. No ghastly 'toxic waste' odor. Have used it on area rugs, sofas, even a couple of times on a couple of my husband's exceptionally dirty work shirts (he's a roofer, and often gets his clothes FILTHY). Good price point too. Highly recommend giving this a try." — Karen O
Get it from Amazon for $6.65.
31. A soap dispensing brush that might just make your kids want to help clean the dishes — it looks kinda fun, doesn't it?
oxo / Via www.instagram.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I'm loving this little brush. I had purchased another dish brush a while back from the grocery store and the bristles were so stiff that it often splattered soap everywhere. This one isn't like that. The bristles are stiff, but soft enough that they tend to cling to what you're brushing, so they don't cause that splatter effect. I also like that you can open the whole thing up by taking its top off to refill it, giving you plenty of room to pour in the dish soap. The ability to easily remove and replace the brush is another very handy feature. Both are easy to do and it's well made, so they're not likely to come open or undone unexpectedly." — Elliria
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
32. A cleaning spray made just for your car, so the next time you spill your coffee all over yourself or your kid dumps their soda in between the seats, you'll still be covered.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Car Guys' Super Cleaner can be used on upholstery, canvas, leather, vinyl, plastic, and rubber.
Promising review:"I have used every product that you can find on the shelves of your local store. When I sprayed the cleaner on the light beige interior of a 25-plus-year-old car, the interior turned to its original color. After years of detailing, I had assumed at this point, the color was set and that's it — not with this stuff. While cleaning it I literally said out loud, 'No way, no way,' because I was in disbelief at how amazing it worked, and the results are in the compliments I receive from friends." — Andrea Garcia
Get it from Amazon for $16.97.
33. Washable microfiber mop pads you can use with your Swiffer WetJet. Stop spending so much on disposable options and put your hard-earned dollars to good use (aka buying yourself overpriced coffee as a treat for cleaning).
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
One pad can last up to 100 washes and works on pretty much any surface, from wood to tile to stone.
Promising review:"These are life-changing. I used a Rubbermaid spray mop for years that I never really loved and when it broke I got a Swiffer and was using the old Rubbermaid mop cloth pads with it still. They didn't fit the Swiffer great and I decided to get new ones. These scrub so much better and pick up way more dirt than my other mop pad. I have two dogs and their dried water and drool is around the kitchen and I used to have to scrub to get that up each time. Not with these pads! I never thought I'd swoon over a cleaning product but...here we are :)." — JB
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.49.
34. And Clorox Disinfecting Wipes to keep in the glove compartment of your car, perfect for when your kiddos somehow manage to transfer their sticky messes onto the backs of your leather seats (lovely). Seriously, how do they always manage to find the most gross things ever to wipe all over the place?!
www.amazon.com
You better believe I have a stack of these in my car!
Promising review:"These are handy and easy to pack for travel. I love using them in hotels and other area where I feel I need to wipe down areas my kids might touch. Much easiest to travel with than a typical container." — Sammi
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $12.78.

Miami Swim Week Is Here! Celebrate With These 13 Flattering Swimsuits, Starting at $18

We might earn a commission if you make a purchase through one of the links. The McClatchy Commerce Content team, which is independent from our newsroom, oversees this content. We've officially reached the end of May, which means Miami Swim Week is here (from May 28 through June 1)! Similar to New York Fashion Week, Miami Swim Week is all about showcasing trendy swimwear, resortwear and more. To celebrate, we rounded up a list of 13 stylish and flattering swimsuits that are all available on Amazon. From one-pieces to tankinis to rash guards, shop our top picks below. This Yonique two-piece swimsuit is so cute, you'll want to keep wearing it over and over again. It has a plunging V-neck top and ruched high-waisted bottoms that offer tummy control. And did we mention that it comes in 30 colors and patterns? This Charmo bikini has high-waisted bottoms that flatter your figure and a bold colorblock design that will make a style statement. Prefer a full coverage option? You can't go wrong with this Dokotoo tankini, which includes a tank top with removable padding and tummy control shorts.

‘Sinners' bonus feature, ‘Good Night' live, Sabrina's song of the summer, ‘Fantastic Four' theme, and what to stream this weekend

Welcome to , your VIP guide to the best of pop culture for the weekend ahead, curated by the Gold Derby team of experts. (June 6-June 8) , Ryan Coogler's cinema-saving horror epic, is now available to rent or buy on VOD platforms like Amazon. Michael B. Jordan stars as Smoke and Stack, identical twin charming criminals who open up a juke joint in 1930s Mississippi. Everything is going great, until the vampires show up. It's a heady mix of horror, crime, comedy, drama, sex, blues music, Black ownership, family, and a bunch of other genres and themes that makes for the year's most exciting and important movie. Check out one of the bonus features, titled "Thicker Than Blood" and available digitally and on the upcoming 4K disc release, showing how Jordan got into character(s): More from GoldDerby 'Sinners' bonus feature: See how the gnarly makeup effects came to life Danya Taymor could make Tony Awards history with a win for 'John Proctor Is the Villain' How 'Severance' creates Lumon's 'manufactured perfection' through VFX After more than two years, we're finally heading back to Wellsbury. And you don't want to miss it. The third season of Netflix's beloved dramedy Ginny & Georgia (now streaming) picks up in the aftermath of the events of the shocking Season 2 finale, which saw Georgia (Brianne Howey) arrested for murder during her wedding to Paul (Scott Porter), the affable town mayor. So, how does a show — and a family — come back from that? By sticking together, obviously. In Season 3, with Georgia under house arrest and awaiting trial, Ginny (Antonia Gentry) finds herself forced to set aside the central duo's differences and fight for her family on multiple fronts, including waging battles against those she never expected. These 10 episodes are a turning point, not just for the show, but for the two dynamic women at its center as well. So, with this compelling new chapter, Ginny & Georgia is the awards contender to watch this weekend. However, if complicated mother-daughter relationships aren't up your alley, other contenders include: Ocean With David Attenborough: Save the cheerleader Save the ocean, save the world. That's the sentiment behind National Geographic's new feature-length special, which sees multi-time Emmy winner and world renowned naturalist David Attenborough take viewers beneath the waves to explore our planet's diverse, yet interconnected, marine ecosystems. As has become the norm for nature documentaries over the last decade (or more), Ocean focuses heavily on the threats that the deep blue sea faces due to humanity's hostile influence, but it also highlights inspirational stories that reveal all hope may not be lost, if we take action now. The documentary airs Saturday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Nat Geo. It streams the next day on Hulu and Disney+. Good Night, and Good Luck: It's not often we get to experience television history in this day and age, but this weekend marks the first time a Broadway production will be broadcast live on television. The Tony-nominated play starring George Clooney, which was adapted from the 2005 Oscar-nominated film written by Clooney and Grant Heslov, will air its penultimate performance. The play tells the story of veteran journalist Edward R. Murrow taking on Sen. Joseph McCarthy during the Red Scare of the 1950s. The performance airs Saturday at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on CNN. It will stream on CNN's website, as well as Max. The 78th Annual Tony Awards: If you need more theater in your life after watching Clooney do his thing (who doesn't?), then you're in luck! The Tony Awards — arguably the best of the major awards shows thanks to the rousing live performances that give it non-stop energy — will honor the best of the stage. Cynthia Erivo hosts the spectacle, which features performances by the casts of Gypsy, Sunset Boulevard, Just in Time, Death Becomes Her, and more. As a bonus, the original cast of Hamilton is reuniting to celebrate the show's 10th anniversary (doesn't it feel much longer?). The telecast airs Sunday at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on CBS. It will stream on Paramount+. We're not cooking the books — our top pick for a movie to stream this weekend is . Ben Affleck reprises his role as Christian Wolff, an autistic man who's a genius with numbers and also really good with guns. He works as an accountant for criminal organizations while also serving as an informant for the Treasury's financial crimes division. In The Accountant 2, Affleck is joined by Jon Bernthal as Christian's soldier-for-hire brother Braxton, who had a small role in the first film but gets bumped up to basically co-lead here. When Christian needs help with a job, he calls on his estranged brother, and they reconnect as they go on a gun-toting road trip together. It's literally Rain Man as an action thriller. It's funnier than the original, and Affleck and Bernthal are very entertaining together. After a modest theatrical run, it's now streaming on Prime Video, which makes sense; it's very much in the same vein as the Road House remake, one of the streaming service's biggest original hits. If you're math-phobic, here are some other movies to stream or watch on-demand this weekend: : Director Dan Trachtenberg's quest to revitalize the Predator franchise continues with this animated feature that's now streaming on Hulu. The bloody action flick is something of an anthology movie, as warriors from various time periods — a Viking, a ninja in feudal Japan, and a World War II pilot — go up against a Predator alien who sees them as a challenge. It's Trachtenberg's second released Predator movie, after 2022's cult favorite Prey, and will be followed by live-action thriller Predator: Badlands later this year. : Robert De Niro and Robert De Niro star in this Mafia drama. De Niro plays dual roles as 1950s mobsters Vito Genovese and Frank Costello as they fight for control of the Luciano family. It tells famous tales of Mafia history in a way you've seen many times before, but De Niro, screenwriter Nicholas Pileggi (Goodfellas), and director Barry Sonnenfeld (Bugsy) know what they're doing. There are three actors from The Sopranos in the supporting cast — Kathrine Narducci, Michael Rispoli, and Matt Servitto — if that's something you take into account in deciding whether to watch a mob movie. The Alto Knights flopped in theaters but is looking to find a second life on Max. : Writer-director-producer Tyler Perry is back with a new Netflix drama. Taraji P. Henson stars as Janiyah, a woman at the end of her rope. She's a single mother having an exceptionally bad day. She gets evicted from her apartment, robbed, and disrespected everywhere she goes. She just needs to deposit her check at the bank so she can pay for her daughter's medicine, and when even that goes wrong, she ends up a suspect in a crime she didn't mean to commit, and it turns into a hostage situation. It's a film that empathizes with everyone who is just a few bad breaks away from calamity. The supporting cast includes Sherri Shepherd, Teyana Taylor, and Sinbad. A sure sign that the weather's changing is the arrival of fresh singles aiming to be the season-defining hit. And previous title-holder Sabrina Carpenter is throwing her hat back into the ring with "Manchild," a country-influenced ode to the dim men in her life with a little disco thrown into the mix. The video accompanying the release feels like a deliciously overstuffed trailer for an off-the-wall '70s road movie. Ahead of the release of "First Steps" on July 25, Marvel Studios have debuted composer Michael Giacchino's full main theme for the Fantastic Four. Sonically, the track is a mix of bright mid-century retro-futurism and some more spacey synth. Disney is also releasing the theme on a "Galactic Blue" 7-inch LP, which is available for pre-order here. Get your first listen below. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Talking Heads' first live performance, director Mike Mills (21st Century Women) has created the first music video for "Psycho Killer," off the band's debut studio album, Talking Heads: 77. Four-time Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan stars in the video as a person slowly unraveling over the course of her daily routine.
