We gave it to our close friends daughter for her first birthday, and she loves it too. I love that it folds up, if we ever have a lot of company over, I can easily store it in a closet out of the way. We've taken it outside to slide into the pool, and keep it inside in the winter. Highly highly recommended." —Macygrey09

Promising review: "We purchased this gem for my then-12-month-old for Christmas and it’s absolutely one of her favorite toys! I like to hide some of her Sesame Street figurines in it too to encourage her to 'help them escape.' I love that it gets her brain thinking in how to get each toy out and then how to place them back in. It’s fun watching her challenge herself, and when she gets them out she’s so proud! Very engaging." —Online shopper

Promising review: "This little elephant’s voice is so sweet! It sounds just like a little kid playing peek-a-boo and singing songs. My 15-month-old niece was completely mesmerized and cuddled her elephant each time he sang and played with her. For not much money, this little toy has already brought hours of enjoyment. I was pleasantly surprised that her older brother (4 years old) also found the elephant charming and watches her play with it."—Meredith

Promising review: "These were a great addition to my 1-year-old's bath toys. He LOVES watching and playing with the water coming out of the pipes, and especially loves the two which have spinning wheels. This toy will last for a long time. Right now I am the one that pours the water in and my child just watches and plays with the water coming out, but as he gets older he can pour the water himself, and move/organize the pipes so that one leaks into another, so you have a chain that fills. It is fun, but it is a very educational toy as they can keep experimenting and learning as they grow older. Highly Recommend." —NotaDuck

Get a set of six from Amazon for $15.49+ (available in three color sets).

Promising review: "I was looking for a musical toy for my great nephew for his first birthday. He immediately figured out how to make it play music and he loves it. And I love that it's NOT toddler tunes, but actual music, including classical. He can play his own music by touching the keys, or the piano will play music for him to listen to. Batteries are included came installed. We only had to remove it from the box and turn it on. The colors are attractive to a baby, the sound is nice, and it is sturdy enough to withstand some abuse. The 1-year old's 3-year-old brother loves it, too! Bonus!" —BeeDubyaDee

Get it from Amazon for $28.65+ (available in 10 styles).

Promising review: "My 1-year-old absolute loves these stacking cups! They keep her entertained for a long time and she likes to look through the bottom cut-puts, giving them an extra feature of fun. The colors are pretty too so it looks so nice on her bookshelf too!" —Trusagi

Promising review: "Daycare said these were her favorite so I bought them when she was 6 months old. She is now a year and three months old, and this is still the first toy out in the morning, last toy put away at night. She has chewed on them, stacked them, knocked them over, smashed them together, nested them. They are the first toy she has helped pick up at night. These will be my go-to gift for the rest of whatever." —J. Jorgensen

Promising review: "Our son, 1 1/2-years-old, is OBSESSED with vacuums and carpet cleaners. He has nearly broken my vacuum a few times because it's a bit too large for him to maneuver. We got him this for Christmas, and it was the only gift he cared about. He wouldn't open any other gifts after getting to it. His sister had to do the rest of them. He has been 'vacuuming' for four days straight. When I vacuum, he follows along side me with it. It is a lot quieter than I expected. The sound doesn't get annoying. I love it! If it ever breaks, I'll buy him another." —Kelsie

Promising review: "My 2-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter absolutely love these! They spend hours playing with these and as a family me and my husband and the kids build things together. The great things about them is that they are large so they aren't a choke hazard. My daughter will sometimes try to put these in her mouth so we are happy that we don't have to worry about that with these jumbo sized blocks. The blocks are colorful and are made of good quality plastic so you don't have to worry about small pieces or worry about them breaking and being harmful. These are highly recommended and very much worth every penny. Probably the best toy I have bought for my kids in a while." —Dee

Promising review: "My 1-year-old loves it. My son can’t get enough of the busy buggy. He loves riding on it. I wish the handle in the back was about a foot taller because my back is killing me after pushing him around on it! He mostly ends up pushing it around himself, giggling the whole time. We would definitely recommend the busy buggy." —Seeguls83

Promising review: "I don't know who enjoys playing with this more, us or our son! We bought this for our 1-year-old son, and he loves pushing the balls through with his hands. We, adults, even enjoy playing little songs on the xylophone. The balls roll down the xylophone as intended, and it sounds perfectly in tune. I like that you can pull the xylophone out separately; it's like two toys in one! It seems well-built, we haven't had any issues thus far in the two months we've had it, and we usually play with this every day. Would buy again!" —Ryan K. Clapp

Get it from Amazon for $31.98+ (available in two colors).

Promising review: "I purchased this set for my daughter's first birthday and she loves it! She loves play food and I wanted to get her a shape sorter. This set has both, is really cute and, best of all, is self-contained! It has three different play settings, two different volume settings as well as "off," isn't obnoxiously loud, and my daughter enjoys it even when it is turned off entirely with no music, sounds or lights at all (for now)! I would highly recommend!" —cmoreland5

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "My 1-year-old loves this toy so much! Her favorite thing to do is take stuff out of something, and this is such fun for her. The toys are different shapes and sizes and textures, some jingle, some squeak, some crinkle. It's endless fun and great simulation." —Dorothy Sosnowski

Get it from Lakeshore Learning for $49.99.

Promising review: "For months I went back and forth about getting the play kit. I’m so happy I decided to order my first. My first kit was for the 11–12m stage. Even the little toys I thought my baby girl wouldn’t have any interest in, she absolutely loves! This kit has taught her object permanence and volume! My only regret was I didn’t order sooner! Shipping took about two weeks. Service was fantastic!" —Emily H.

Get it from Lovevery for $40/month.

Get it from Amazon for $45.99.

Promising review: "My son plays with it for up to 15 minutes many times a day. I never get sick of the songs.

If they came out with another cube with new songs/instruments I would buy it in a heartbeat!" —Kevin

Get it from Amazon for $27.45.

Get it from Amazon for $10.92 or from Bookshop to support local bookstores.

They are so easy to clean and they don’t stain at all, so they always look brand new. They keep food of her clothes and off her lap which is a bonus. I think I’ll buy more of these once the others get old." –Kiara Cisneros

Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in two sizes that fit ages 6 months–4 years, and in 29 styles).

Promising review: "Initially, I thought this book was a bit pricey but I thought it was a really cool idea so I splurged and ordered it anyway. I am so glad I did! The quality is excellent and the kids loved it. They got such a thrill seeing their names in the book and the timeless story written with them in it. I think they will cherish this book for years to come." —Cynthia

Promising review: "I love these! We made it a tradition to stamp all of our children's hands from their first Christmas to their last. This stuff is amazing while they are young and don't understand what we are doing just yet. It's no mess and easy to do. You can hang it on the tree a couple of days after doing it" —Jamie

Get it from Amazon for $10.99 (available in five styles and a multi-pack).

For ages 2+

These are perhaps the most beautifully designed and interesting set of wooden blocks that's I've ever encountered. I liked them so much I bought them way before my son would even be to use them. Having nearly failed my astronomy course in college, I figured this would be a great way for us to learn all about the constellations together as I pretend to know what I'm talking about. So when my kid asks, "Dad, where is Orion's belt?" I won't have to answer, "Around his waist."

Get it from Amazon for $28.

For ages 1+

Promising review: "I saw these and immediately thought: I cannot wait to buy this for my nephew and friend's kid because it's going to absolutely drive the parents insane. Unspoken rule of parenthood right? You buy other kids the stuff you know will make a ton of noise. I was not let down. It was delivered to my sister today and shortly after arrival I received the long-anticipated text, "Did you send these devil tools?" Yes, sister, yes I did. I will most definitely be ordering another set for my friend's kid in a couple of weeks!" —Amanda Wiley

Get it from Amazon for $28.79.

For ages 3+

Promising review: "My boys do a lot of Play-doh play but the stuff dries out so fast. This stuff never dries out and it is easy to manipulate. I purchased the letters and numbers from this company as well. It has actually improved writing skills." —eliezer marrero

Get it from Amazon for $16.04.

For ages 6+ months

Promising review: "My 5-month-old adores this toy. It was the first toy I have ever seen her really love. She smiles at it and can easily push the buttons on its hands and feet. She's not intentionally pushing them yet, but I'm glad they are easy enough that they register when she does. If you hold down the heart, the puppy plays all the songs one after another, and this is currently the best feature. She can just hold it or touch it while it sings...A great toy from baby and beyond. Has different stages for different ages...This is a great toy from birth on. It will definitely grow with my baby. My niece is five and still plays with hers on occasion." —Allison

Get it from Amazon for $14.02+ (available in four styles).

Promising review: "I know all kids don't like the same toys. But this is the the one toy that can occupy, calm, and entertain time after time after time. Also as a parent the sound is not really annoying! We have used it in the car, on the airplane (it's soft enough with airplane noise), for diaper changes a lot (I have a wiggler)! Excellent value for money. We have had it since he was 5 months and now he's over 1 year old and still loves it!" —JV Marshfield

Get it from Amazon for $8.89.

Promising review: "I bought the crab as a baby gift several months ago when the baby was doing tummy time. She loved it screaming with delight when she saw it. When she started to crawl her mom called me and said she was trying to chase it. Never did catch it though. Now she is 10 months old and starting to take steps and is still trying to catch the crab. I will buy this again for any baby I need to buy a gift for. I bought it originally because I thought it was hysterical." —Gigi 58

Promising review: "If I could give this 10 stars, I would. The best purchase we have ever made!! I bought this for my son when he was 6 months old hoping it would help with calming him before bed time.... fast forward to today... he's now 1 and LOVES this thing. He looks for it when it's time for sleep and it instantly calms him and gets him ready for bed. He loves to snuggle with it and he even looks for it when he wakes. He learned how to turn it on himself and now puts himself back to sleep at night. If you want your child to sleep 12+ hours at night... BUY IT NOW!!!!!!" —Logan’s Mommy

Promising review: "Get it… it’s super cute, durable and my baby loves it. I bought this as a gift for my baby’s 6-month milestone celebration which was Taco Tuesday themed. We love to host Taco Tuesdays at our house. When opening his gifts I saved this til the end and 'knighted' our LO by tapping his shoulders with the box in front of everyone (YES, I'M THAT MOM)! Anyway, this was the cherry on top for everything else he received. Im so happy to have found this super unique gift set. Its perfect!!." —Whitney Miller

BuzzFeed editor Heather Braga bought Sophie and said: "Sophie the Giraffe has become a valued member of our family. I ran out to buy it when my son started teething (badly) as he simply refused every other type of teether we already had (of course). I was skeptical as to why a toy giraffe would cost nearly $30, but I soon learned it clearly had magical powers. Sophie has apparently been around for over 55 years (who knew!) and is made entirely of natural rubber. She has various chewable parts (ears, horns, and legs) that Noah was able to grasp onto himself way easier than any other teether. She's becoming my go-to baby shower gift, and we simply don't leave the house without her!

PSA: Do not wash Sophie with water or if you do, do not get water into the squeaker hole! I've seen a number of TikTok videos noting that if you do this the inside can potentially get moldy.

Promising review: "I was super hesitant to spend $25 on a teething toy. It’s honestly just a regular squeaky toy, but the other reviews were spot on, and my child absolutely LOVES his Sophie. Something about that rubbery smiley giraffe is just so darn appealing to babies. She is without a doubt one of his very favorite toys, especially once he started teething." —Courtnee Thompson

Get it from Amazon for $25.99.

Promising review: "My 10 month and 1 year old grandchildren enjoy this toy. Sturdy. Bright and colorful. Quality product." —Melissa O.

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two colors).

Promising review: "I bought this for my grandson he was about 5 months old it kept him very busy and he loved it. He still loves it at 1 year old and it keeps him busy. It has a lot to do on it and is very good quality. I think it is one of the better jumperoos and I recommend it. My neice also bought it through my recommendation. FIsher Price has great quality toys for kids." —rbunz

Get it from Amazon for $81.59+ (available in two styles).

Promising review: "Gave this Dimpl toy as a birthday gift to a 1 year old. It is a very simple toy, but the kiddo was very interested in it. Perfect size to handle. Bright colors to see & talk about w/mom, textures to feel, dimples to push. No loose or tiny pieces. Love it, it's great." —Soccerteam93

Get it from Amazon for $9.95.

Promising review: "My daughter loves this. I got this when she was 6 months old. She is now 8 months and she will stare at this thing when she wakes up in the middle of the night. I go turn it on for her and she stays occupied and falls back asleep with the sound of the ocean waves. The mechanism is a little noisy, but to an infant its a comforting hum it produces. The crib light is helpful at night when we have to search for her binky or just to see to pick her up. The full light feature is very bright in a dark room, but my daughter has no issues falling asleep with it. Batteries can go by fast if you use the motion at all times. But I've used it for a good couple of months with no dead batteries yet. Plan on buying rechargeable for it soon. We mostly use it every night for the ocean sound no motion or lights. UPDATE 2/10/2020: My daughter is now over 10 months old. She randomly wakes up in the middle of the middle of the night and she will stand up in her crib and push the button to turn this on, then off, then on again. It helps her go back to sleep without waking us up. Best purchase ever." —BP-JP

Get it from Amazon for $33.90.

Promising review: "Cute tummy time toy! My 6-month-old grandson really enjoys it. The water inside moves the pieces inside so there is motion to keep him interested. It has a cushion of air too and is comfortable for him to lay on on tummy for play, or back to watch his siblings play." —Magmae

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two colors).

Watch this sprayer make bath time even more fun on TikTok.

Promising review: "If you have babies or toddlers this is a must buy! I saw this on TikTok and decided to try it out. I love this and my kids love this. My kids were so scared for me to rinse their hair and now that we have this they even want to do it themselves! I also just had a baby and she loves it as well! We have had it for a couple of months now and the batteries are still going strong....which if you have kids you know some stuff it feels like you can never get the batteries to last because they are always playing with them. I highly recommend this to every parent!!!" —Amber

It's a simple toy, but sometimes those are the very best.

Promising review: "I ordered this for my granddaughter's fourth birthday. It was easy to assemble and has that great cedar smell — it's also lightweight, but well made. My granddaughter, along with her 1.5-year-old brother, has already gotten a lot of play time in the sandbox. They love it!! It is beautiful and my son loves the fact that it closes up to protect the sand then opens up for benches for the children to sit on. He has sent me a couple of pictures and videos of them playing in it. I highly recommend this sand box." —lisa burroughs

Get it from Amazon for $119.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "It was super easy to inflate, came with an extra 'plug,' and is cute enough to give a T-rex a cavity. The material is VERY sturdy…reminds me of what you would make an inflatable raft with…really tough! My granddaughter loves it, even just to sit on and watch TV. The cover is easy to clean (by hand, allow to air dry) and not difficult to put back on and zip. I’m pretty sure it will be around for a long time!!!" —Athena L.Stallman

Highly recommended from a mom of four." —Britney bansley

I recently got one of those for my *very* active son and cannot wait to put it to use. Every parent in my life swears by this, so if you have enough room in your home, definitely consider ordering one. The cushion covers are machine washable (a must for any item a child is going to lounge on) and come in SO many colors you'll absolutely be able to find one that matches your decor.

Promising review: "What a great product! Perfect addition to our son’s room as it can be furniture, fort building blocks and an extra bed if you need it for a friend. Love our nugget!" —Kristen N.

Did you know avocados are also called alligator pears and that "botanically" they are classified as a berry? Well, now you do.

Get it from Target for $11.49.

For ages 1+

Promising review: "So I bought these worried about my 2-year-old potentially eating a crayon and having that toxic kind of stuff in her system. But, I really should have been more worried about my dogs eating crayons which so far they've snagged one and a half of these babies with no health problems for them after, so I'd say that's a major win. What's also fantastic about these crayons is that they are the perfect size for little hands. My daughter just loves to color with them and they color as smooth as Crayola and they're not all plastic and waxy like the crayons you get at the dollar store. So I'd definitely recommend these to anyone with a toddler, just watch for sneaky dogs. They'll gobble them up." —Cassandra S.

For ages 18+ months

Promising review: "This is an amazing learning tool that I highly recommend buying. I am a therapist for kids with autism. My materials get a lot of use from different kiddos, so I can attest from my experience that they are very durable and excellent quality. Many of my younger clients are barely starting to speak. This product has motivated them to make animal noises, label animals, count numbers, label colors, request for more, point at the barn they want to open, ask for help to open and close the barns, and sing along to songs with me! There are so many fun and different ways to play with them to target different goals! The animals and barns are so cute! Definitely purchase this product!" —Katie

Promising review: "This is one of the best bath toys we have gotten. No issues or concerns with mold. It sticks great to our tiles or our tub.
