When I had my son 15 years ago, umbrella strollers were all the rage. Maclaren strollers (no longer available in the U.S.) were right up there with Bugaboo for the best baby strollers on New York City streets. As the years have passed, so has the era of the umbrella stroller — or so I thought. While there certainly are nowhere near as many umbrella strollers available as there were in their heyday, parents are still on the hunt for these handy, easy-to-fold strollers. So, I tested a dozen models…

I think that we can all agree that there’s nothing cuter than babies getting all dressed up for their day (in fact, when it comes to the best baby and parenting products, clothes are our absolute favorite). Whether they’re in a sleeper or kitted out in a tuxedo with tails, babies look undeniably adorable in any type of ’fit they’re adorned in.Because of my obsession with making babies look their absolute cutest, I wanted to find the best baby clothes brands out there — or, in other words, brands…

I watched hours and hours of TikTok to find the best TikTok-approved gifts for teens. My algorithm, I fear, will never recover. Seriously, though, I thought that there would be a lot of weird stuff you’ve never heard of getting popular with teens on TikTok like there is in the parenting and #Cleantok communities (see: the Scrub Daddy Sponge), but that’s not the case. The stuff they love and talk about makes a lot of sense for them: hair supplies for kids with long or unruly hair, backpacks that…

The wagon stroller has only been around for a few years, but the beloved prams keep getting better and more popular. They’re quickly becoming “the big thing,” or the white whale of registries, if you will. Wonderful for expanding families, families who love the outdoors, and especially families who have older kids in sports. Wagon strollers also make an impressive gift, not only for their size but their utility. They can be pretty spendy, though, so before you buy one of these parenting essentia…

I think that we can all agree that teachers deserve the world. They are the patient guides of our children’s education and are often forgotten on holidays. Buying Valentine’s Day gifts for teachers shows them that you’re thinking of them and that you’re sorry that your child insisted on the slap bracelet valentines to pass out to classmates. Having several teachers in my own family, ranging from middle school math teachers to special education teachers, I think that I have a pretty good grasp on…

Balance bikes came about relatively recently: 1997, to be exact. That’s probably why most kids prior to the early 2000s didn’t learn to ride a bike without training wheels until they were at least 5 or 6 years old (that’s us, you guys). Fast forward to now, and toddlers as young as 18 months are zip zooming around on the coolest balance bikes, giving them a leg up on learning to ride a big kid bike far before their parents did. A balance bike is the ideal middle ground between a scooter and a bi…

Getting kids crafting is one of the best ways to encourage their creativity and get them off tablets and away from screens. I love Valentine’s Day crafts for kids because creating these gives them the ability to make gifts or tokens for the people they hold dear. If you grew up in the ’90s, chances are, you did quite a few of these crafts in school — I know that I did. The crafts you did are likely very similar to the ones on this list, save for the fact that these craft kits have all the suppli…

Going on vacation is an adventure for everyone, and one small way to make it truly exciting for little ones is by getting them their very own luggage. They also have the added benefit of helping parents free up some space in their own luggage. And if the itty bit decides to store chocolate in their pockets or worms in their socks, their parents’ grown-up clothing won’t be dirtied or dug through, either — trust me, it happens more than you’d think. Kids’ luggage is such a good grandparent gift. T…
