Baby and toddler supplies deals

Why we like it

The Chefhandy 7-in-1 Multifunction Baby Bottle Warmer provides ease of mind for new parents with functions like fast thawing, food heating, bottle sterilization, constant milk warming, and more. Its intelligent temperature control system allows you to get your baby's milk or food just right, while the timer preset helps you schedule warming in advance. This baby bottle warmer is easy to clean through and through with its steam-cleaning capability and rounded corner design.

Kids' tech deals

Why we like it

The VTech KidiZoom Smartwatch is stylish, kid-friendly, and will make your child feel all grown up. It's jam-packed with features, including over 55 watch face options, dual cameras that allow for videos or selfies, fun photo effects, built-in games, a calendar, a pedometer, an alarm app, and more. To keep your little ones safe, the smartwatch has a parental game and time limit control option and prevents Bluetooth/Wi-Fi access. This is the perfect intro to a FitBit or Apple Watch of their own one day.

Toy deals

Why we like it

This TEMI construction truck toy set includes a larger transport truck and a smaller crane, mixer, bulldozer, and excavator truck. The vehicles are all realistic and have moving parts (like a detachable trailer) that can help your child learn about construction design and function — all while developing fine motor skills. None of the toy parts require batteries for operation, as they're all friction-powered. Note that this set is designed for kids ages three to six.

Home and kitchen deals

Why we like it

The 13-function Instant Pot makes cooking and clean-up simple — a must for busy families. The 6.5-quart basket can make enough food for up to six people and the pot's EvenCrisp technology helps create crunchy, air-fried dishes with less oil. Instant Pot is a brand that knows what they're doing, and this model in particular is a recent addition that won't disappoint.
