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. Whether you're saving time or effort, these products for growing children add up to saving some money, too. 1. A six-pack of Reel Paper bamboo paper towels for all of those times you forgot to go to the store for regular paper towels and you're forced to use fast-food napkins and dish towels to blot out and soak up household messes. Target Promising review:"These exceeded my expectations. They obviously won't be as absorbent or soft as Bounty, but for bamboo, they're amazing! Go look at other bamboo paper towel reviews; you'll quickly realize that these exceed the quality of any others. They're strong, lint-free, and clean well. Yes, they're not that soft, but they're not wiping your butt, so you'll be fine." — Summer Wilks 2. An 80-ounce container of bubble solution that answers the question, "Do we have any bubbles?" This purchase will save you money by keeping you from buying several smaller containers, and due to the size, it's pretty hard to misplace. Target Promising review:"I have been buying bubbles from different places. I must say these are the best bubbles so far, and the price is amazing too." — B Price: $3 3. A NutriBullet baby food prep system for making nutritious homemade food for days that can then be easily stored in resealable cups or a silicone freezer tray. Time saver meets money saver! Target The set includes the motor base and batch bowl to quickly and easily blend meals, storage containers with a date dial to track freshness, and a silicone freezer tray that stores up to 12 ounces of pre-portioned meals. 4. And a two-pack of silicone Yummy Pouches that are fridge-, freezer-, dishwasher-, and microwave safe. These also stand upright for easy pouring and feature a leakproof lid, so there's no wasting of precious food here. Target Promising review:"These pouches are incredible. They allow my 10-month-old to self-feed and keep the mess to a minimum. I highly recommend these. The only downside is if you squeeze them too hard, the top might pop off." — Sahm73 5. An 80-piece Johnson & Johnson first aid kit for any boo-boos that might happen while out and about (and they will) or indoors (definitely will). This pack has it all, and the case can be reused and refilled. Target Contains 30 adhesive bandages in assorted sizes, 21 sheer adhesive bandages, hand-cleansing wipes, 10 gauze all-purpose dressings, and one full-sized Neosporin antibiotic ointment. Promising review:"This is the perfect on-the-go first aid kit. It fits great in the glove compartment of my Honda Odyssey and has everything I need. I will definitely be getting this again when I need to get another one. I would recommend this for all parents to keep in their cars." — TinaTargetMama 6. A 26-piece Magna-Tiles travel set because Magna-Tiles might be one of the best investment toys out there, and now it's shrunken down for play on the go. The metal container can even be used as a building base. Target Promising review:"We loved the size! Perfect for travel and on light tables! I love that they work with regular-size Magna-Tiles, too. These are adorable and better than other brands out there." — Laurel 7. A two-pack of Stasher reusable food bags that not only help to phase out unrecyclable single-use plastics but can be used to keep almost anything from snacks and toys to medicine and changing supplies contained. 8. A magnetic dry-erase whiteboard because "parent brain" is a real thing, and you're going to forget more than you remember. This should cut down on a few extra trips to the supermarket. Target Promising review:"We purchased this to put on the fridge for shopping/task lists, and it's perfect. It came with magnets to adhere to the back of the board, and the magnets and adhesive pads are of great quality and adhere well. The marker works great and comes with an eraser on the cap (handy), and the board comes with a bonus magnet." — KateS 9. A fiberglass-framed unicorn play tent to encourage toddlers to take off to new areas of imaginative and independent play (or just take a nap inside). Target Promising review:"My toddler loves to crawl into her tent and read a book. This tent is super spacious, and I hung up some lights inside, so it's more relaxing. I also really loved the tunnel spot, I was able to hook up her ball pit with the tunnels to this tent, and she was beyond excited to play with it all." — Pj 10. A two-pack of spill-proof, dishwasher-safe Munchkin snack catchers for cutting down on wasted food and crumbs that spill onto the floor. Target Promising review:"My 2-year-old loves walking around with his snacks, and this product makes it possible! He often walks around shaking the snack cup, and I never find his snacks lying around the house because the cup contains them." — BebeMama 11. A 1,344-count (aka the biggest we could find) of Pampers sensitive baby wipes because even after you're done wiping butts, there's still sticky hands, dirty feet, and we don't even know what that is on their face that still needs cleaning. Target Promising review:"These baby wipes are great. I no longer have a baby, but I love the fresh, clean feeling after using the bathroom! If they're safe enough to clean a baby's bum, they gotta be able to do the trick for me, too!" — youask 12. A four-pack of Mr. Clean Extra Durable Erasers to deal with nearly any manner of kid-inflicted stain on your walls, tubs, floors, or wherever they can get to. Bonus: These also work great for cleaning (and prolonging the life of) dirty sneakers! Target Promising review:"I always appreciated this product for cleaning permanent markers off tables and other things (although it will take off varnish). But after moving into a new house, I have found it works wonders on tile and sinks. Our kitchen sinks were white, and there were stains on them (before we bought the house) that we could not clean. Same with the white tile in our bathroom. I scrubbed it with bleach and a scrub brush, and it would not clean. The magic eraser took it right off." — Pippy121 Price: $5.99 13. A portable multiuse lap desk with plenty of storage space so creative endeavors like drawing, coloring, or writing never need to be confined to one space. It even works for snacking! Target Promising review:"It didn't take long to put together. My kids were fairly eager to use it. Seems like it'll last and they liked the reusable sticker set. The large side pocket holds activity books and paper, so it helps to keep them off tables and on hand for use." — Briana S 14. A six-pack of reusable water balloons that only requires a bucket of water (or even a sink or tub) to load up. No more buying bags of balloons that'll end up in tatters on your lawn. Target Promising review: "These beat regular water balloons — hands down! I couldn't believe how well these work. We set up two five-gallon buckets full of water and had a great water fight — adults included! Where were these in my childhood?! Great invention!" — Leslienoel Price: $12.99 15. A two-pack of baby pacifier clips for all those times yet another binky falls on the floor or gets lost. The pacifier is one item to which the "five-second rule" does not apply. Target 16. A Bentgo "durable and leakproof" lunch box because it's just as much fun for parents to pack their kids' meals in one of these as it is for them to open it up every day as they move from daycare to preschool and beyond. Target Note: While the tray is dishwasher-safe, the case is not! It will melt the rubber elements and ruin the whole thing if not hand-washed. Promising review:"I love this lunch box! It fits perfectly inside my son's lunch bag, and it coordinates with the blue shark lunch bag. My toddler enjoys the different compartments; it's like a game to see which compartment he's going to start with :)" — Live2Design 17. A 16-ounce insulated stainless-steel water bottle for liquid refreshment around the home (not so much on the go unless you want to lose it). That way, you're not washing glasses nonstop or throwing out disposable cups. Target Promising reviews:"Perfect size and color! Easy to use and kid-friendly!" — Lidia "It is very sturdy. Can handle the abuse from a 5-year-old. Had other brands before, but this can withstand being dropped and not dented. Easy to clean and has no problems with mold like other brands. Water stays cold the entire school day. It is a bit pricey at regular price but will last the entire school year." — Target Customer 18. A 25-pack of jumbo sidewalk chalk with a case and holder (so messy chalk doesn't get all over tiny hands) because nothing says time-consuming activity like creatively (and harmlessly) defacing neighborhood sidewalks and driveways with colorful doodles and graffiti. Target 19. A three-pack of kids' art smocks to save their clothes from all manner of paint and marker stains and, as an added bonus, can also be used for messy little eaters. Target 20. A six-pack of pre-folded cloth diapers made of a bamboo-cotton blend that aren't just diapers but are also super absorbent workhorses for dealing with puke, leaky breast milk, sweat, or any other spillage that a baby or toddler can bring. Target Promising review:"The best inserts I've ever bought! They're so soft. My son doesn't seem bothered to wear them (he usually scratches his butt all the time, and he hasn't with these). They really hold so much pee, too! My favorite part, though, is how well poop washes off of them! I jet spray my inserts first, then wash in cold water, and you wouldn't even know poop was on them! Then I can do a normal wash with warm water to sanitize." — Husky Mama 21. A spray bottle of water-based Folex instant carpet spot remove r because if you've got kids and a carpet or rug (that you care about), you best believe it's gonna get stained. Take a look right now; there's probably a new stain already waiting for you! Target Promising review:"I've been using Folex for many years. This is the only thing that can get stains out of my carpet pretty fast. Sometimes, they do return, but if you just want something that's quick and you don't have to scrub so hard, then this is going to be the thing for you. If it's a very deep stain, then it might come back after a while." — Vmurphy 22. A foldable Oxo Tot 2-in-1 Go Potty because when they gotta go, you know they gotta go! Like, right now! No bathroom? No problem; extend the legs, and voilà, you've got an instant roadside commode. This potty also lays flat on regular toilets for a more comfortable seat on the throne. Target Promising review:"We love having this for on the go. It is perfect. We started training sometime around 16 or 18 months and the height was just right and still is (at almost 2). We had great success with training even though we like to be on the go, much of which is probably due to having this thing. This can be put in a drawstring backpack, and no one even knows you are carting it around. It helps keep training on track and can be used on the ground, in the bathroom, or even in the car. Game changer!" — Susan 23. A 7-in-1 high chair to grow with your little one as they take their place at the table with a three-point seat recline and different tray options. Target The seven models included: reclined seat, infant high chair, traditional high chair, dining chair, infant booster, toddler booster modes, youth chair, and siblings mode. Promising review:"Very comfortable and versatile. Easy to clean and store away compared to higher brands. Previously purchased a Lalo high chair, but I see myself using this high chair instead due to its height and sturdiness." — Flowers2024 24. An affordable Uno card game so children can learn the harsh realities of the world in a safe environment when their mom drops a Wild Draw 4 on them. Target Promising review:"Hours of fun playing Uno with my daughter. Easy instructions and lots of fun for every age. This is definitely a great family-filled game." — Melissa Price: $5.99 25. A 36-pack of plug protectors because electrical safety might still be an issue no matter how old they get! Target Promising review:"On top of everything you must worry about while being a parent, the last thing you need to worry about is your little one's tiny fingers getting hurt. This product is the best! Came with plenty of covers for the apartment." — BGarden Price: $3.49 Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
