Best Teether
Smily Mia Penguin Buddy Never Drop Silicone Baby Teething Toy
This is the most innovative teether in a very long time. It’s designed to be easy for babies to grip, and because of the “hand trap,” at the top of the inside of the teether that let’s baby get a good grip while resting their knuckles on the interior, they’re unlikely to drop it.
Parents can hand this to baby, and because of the shape and grip, babies already know what to do. They also look really cute tied up on the top of a gift in place of a traditional bow.
If you’d like even more options, there’s a lot of baby gear on sale online right now.

Most Engaging Toy
Teytoy My First Baby Tissue Box
I get that this toy looks silly, and not at all that important, but darn it if babies aren’t over the moon for it. It’s exactly what it looks like—a toy tissue box with silky tissues. There’s just something about the act of pulling them out of the box that mesmerizes little ones. And this is 100 times better than letting them have at an actual box of tissues. Trust us.

Best Hands-Free Assistant
Babaste Baby Bottle Holder
If there were a job application for parenting, one of the skills required would be the ability to grow three extra arms to catch all of the bottles and pacifiers your cutie will likely throw across the room, drop on the floor, or fling mid-tantrum.
This Baby Bottle Holder lets your independent tot feed themselves while the baby gadget stays stationary, in order to prevent bottles from flying around the house.

A Portable Bassinet
Fisher-Price On-the-Go Baby Dome
A travel bassinet will save a parent’s bacon. It is a place for baby to nap, relax, or even just avoid the gross bugs outside. This travel bassinet is covered in fine mesh that protects baby from mosquitoes and other yucky bugs.
It clamshells open and closed for easy deploying and packing up, and it’s easy to clean, with all the covers machine washable.

For the Gross, but Necessary, Cleaning
Oogiebear Nose and Ear Gadget
Another pretty gross but pretty important tool, the Oogiebear is exactly what it sounds like: a device to pick a kid’s nose and ears with. Kids get gross, and cotton swabs aren’t usually a great idea according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) because of the risk of ear injury. This is a safer way to get the ick out from baby’s face.

Rocking Easy
Rockit Portable Baby Stroller Rocker
Have you ever been rocking your baby in a stroller so long that it feels like your hand is going to fall off? Prevent other parents from that fate by gifting them this little Rockit. It hooks onto the baby stroller handle and vibrates, making the stroller feel as though it’s moving. It’s baby trickery, and parents will thank you for it.
This little gem does that for parents, keeping baby comfortable and resting, while they have both hands to eat, have a drink, lift weights, whatever they want to do with all that freedom.

Ear Safety
Alpine Hearing Protection Muffy Baby Ear Protection for Babies and Toddlers
Fireworks, outdoor music festivals, parades — all of them can be too loud for babies. It can not only leading to hearing loss but make babies grouchy as all get out.
These ear protection muffs are good for babies up to 36 months, and they’re made with soft, moldable cups and an elastic band.

A Diaper Bag-Changing Station Hybrid
Fandiar Baby Diaper Bag Backpack with Changing Station
Diaper bags have come a long way from cartoon-printed monstrosities with few benefits other than multiple pockets. And to have one that’s also a covered changing station? Amazing. Unzip the back pocket, pull the back panel away, and insert a few support poles, throw down the pad, and spread the awning, and you have a convenient spot for diaper swaps or baby to just chill in.
The bag has capacity for loads of diapers, wipes, and clothes, the cooler compartment that holds three bottles, and the straps are well-padded.

Easy-to-Use Thermometer
iHealth No-Touch Forehead Thermometer
Not all infrared thermometers are made alike. Some of them are downright glitchy and sometimes tricky to use. This one from iHealth is simple to use — you just aim at baby’s forehead from an inch away and hit the button — and the battery lasts forever. It’s easily one of the best thermometers we’ve ever used. And through Covid, we used them a lot.

For Keeping Cool
Trelc Mini Handheld Stroller Fan
Get one stroller fan to point at the baby, and one to point at the parent pushing the stroller. It’s pretty amazing. The level of comfort on a walk goes way up for both, and that may mean a longer walk with more time in the open, fresh air, away from those four walls they’ve seen for hours or days.
I like this one because the octopus-like arms grip the handle of the stroller or car seat, and they’re easy to manipulate to position wherever you like. Also, the fan itself is pretty powerful, pushing out a lot of air.

Best Baby Monitor
Nanit Pro Smart Baby Monitor & Wall Mount
The Nanit baby monitor is one the best for good reason. It monitors absolutely everything—movement, sound, sleep, and even the growth of your baby. The app is user-friendly with simple setups, a great homepage, and the ability to be on multiple devices at the same time. And even though the Pro is on the pricy side, it’s really one of the best things you can get for any parent’s peace of mind.

Best Bassinet
Snoo Smart Sleeper Bassinet
There’s little this bassinet can’t do. Developed by pediatrician Dr. Harvey Karp, this sleeper is a responsive bassinet that reacts to your baby’s motions by rocking and playing soothing sounds. If you can swing the price, it’s worth every penny.

Best Binkies
FridaBaby Paci Weaning System
Pacifiers help soothe your baby during the early stages of their life. However, by the age of 3, extended pacifier use can start to negatively affect your baby’s budding teeth. Start the weaning process with this.
Created with the help of a pediatric dentist, each paci nipple is shorter than the previous one, so you can gradually size down until your kiddo is totally weaned off.

Best Placemat
Busy Baby Silicone Placemat
This placemat is a real multitool when it comes to your baby. It’s an easily transportable, clean place for them to eat; it’s a play area; it’s a plate; and it’s even a serving device, thanks to the two straps.
Four suction areas on the bottom make sure that this placemat doesn’t go anywhere, so your child’s mess won’t be falling all over the floor. Well, unless they’re throwing their food. In that case, you’re on your own.
