The kids might love these products, but you’ll love the prices.

Prime Day can be *confusing* — we’re using our extensive shopping knowledge and tracking price history to give you the most accurate pricing information and vetted discounts/original prices. FYI, some of the “regular” prices listed on the sides of some listings are true original prices, some (when the best deals are Prime-exclusive) are lesser discounts that non-Prime members can take advantage of. We’ll let you know everything you need to know! 

FYI — deals move *fast*. We’ll do our best to keep this post and imagery as up-to-date as possible, but we can’t catch everything immediately. Check back throughout the week to see our latest updates as the deals change!

Promising review: "So cute!! Comes with LOTS of stamps. Santa brought this, and my kids were excited. The wood container makes a nice little storage tray for paper, too." —Caroline

Price: $19.49+ (originally $35.99; available in two styles)

There's also a built-in alarm to scare off squirrels and other critters.

Promising review: "This whole idea of a smart bird feeder is the greatest thing since I don’t know what!! There are so many available, but I happened to watch the video by a customer, and he sold me on this model. The feeder is well-made. Solid. Great camera and many features. Clear, vibrant videos. Easy app use. Identifies birds. Has a speaker that allows me to chase off unwelcome guests. I am finally getting it on a post tomorrow; I have set it out on the deck and take it in at night for now. Putting up a raccoon baffle, as we have those critters out here. We have a waterfall feature that has always drawn the birds here, so why not feed them too! Great price, easy instructions, solar powered!" —KJ

Price: $85.47 (originally $129.99; available in two colors, the deal is on the green version)

Promising review: "I built all the animals in this kit. They are all very clever, but the red fox is amazing. The moving parts make it great fun to pose realistically. And the proportions are excellent. Very high-quality kit. But don’t lose any parts! Did I say I was impressed?" —Calvin M

Price: $34.99 (originally $49.99 — see all Lego deals here)

Promising review: "My son loves collecting Pokemon cards and these packs are a great way for him to collect more he doesn't have yet! Great quality." —Kori Price

Price: $15.99 (originally $19.99; Prime-exclusive deal, non-members can get it for $19.99)

Promising review: "My 7-year-old son spends many hours playing this. Some challenges are easy, but on others, he gets stuck and asks for my help. Good game for children to develop imagination and skills to solve problems." —Jean Carlos Barcelo

Promising review: "This book has officially become a household staple, mostly because my daughter goes through these things like Taylor goes through eras. It’s packed with more stickers than I thought possible, and somehow she’s managed to use every single one on the pages, the furniture, and occasionally the dog. The outfits are fun, the artwork is cute, and it keeps her busy long enough for me to drink a coffee while it’s still hot. I’ve already ordered backups because, at this point, running out of Swiftie sticker books would be a family emergency." —Josh M

Price: $6.04 (typically $10.38; $6.36 for non-Prime members)

Promising review: "This was one of my grandson's repeated request for Christmas. It's Melissa and Doug, so you expect quality, color, functionality, and educational value. The Velcro pieces continue to work after numerous uses. No real assembly required. The money and pizza box are extras that my grandson and his grandfather loved! A highlight of Christmas morning that is still being played with." —Stavia

Also check out the Swift playard, which is a little heavier but has a one-handed fold mechanism. 

Promising review: "Best baby travel purchase so far! Bought this to travel to Costa Rica with and definitely work the money! This should be on everyone’s baby registry. The zip-in bassinet was great for my infant and easy to carry in the backpack. We checked this with our luggage, and it wasn’t damaged at all. Very easy to set up and take down! It’s a tight fit in the bag, but we could also pack blankets and sheets in the bag, which was great for traveling for our first flight with the baby. 10/10 recommend!" —Amazon Customer

Price: $202.49 (originally $269.99; also available in three non-sale colors)

Rebecca O'Connell: I have the safari one, and I'm full of regret that I didn't see this moon version — it's so cute! I'll survive because my play mat is still amazing. Skip Hop makes really high-quality, super-adorable play gyms that survive washing and baby gnawing. Highly recommend! When not in use, the arches collapse for easy storage. 

Promising review: "It’s so big, comfy, fluffy, and gorgeous! It’s very much worth the price I paid for it. It can totally be used as a rug once the baby has outgrown it. It’s that nice. The toys that come with it are also very cute and of nice quality. The whole thing is great.10/10 absolutely in love with this celestial mat." —shannon

Price: $59.49 (originally $84.99; Prime member exclusive deal, non-members can get it for $59.49; also available in four other non-sale styles — see all Skip Hop deals here)

Note: This was designed for awake time only! 

Rebecca O'Connell: This was a huge staple for me when my baby was first born. It was amazing just to have somewhere to put the baby down for a minute. He absolutely loved lounging and relaxing in it while I either sat next to him or tried to get a couple chores done nearby. I usually kept a pee pad and swaddle over it in case he spit up or peed through the side of his diaper. 

Promising review: "Our baby loves this lightweight and comfortable lounger. The removable cover is a plus, too! The curve shape and lower sides allow our baby to feel snuggled, but also have the ability to move freely. Our baby prefers this over the original design. As a parent, I’m grateful for a safe place to set my baby — one of our favorite ways to use it is as a resting place when taking our baby in and out of the bath. Thank you, Snuggle Me Organic for another great product!" —Kay

Price: $84.99 (originally $119.99; available in six colors — see all Snuggle Me deals here)

Rebecca O'Connell: I tried popping one of these teethers in my 5-month-old baby's mouth like a pacifier, and he wasn't into it. Instead, he likes to hold the bristled section and gnaw on the silicone caterpillar loop. He loves these mushies so much, I make sure I always have at least two on hand when we leave the house. 

Promising review: "This teether has been such a lifesaver during the teething stage. The soft silicone is gentle on my baby’s gums, and the little massaging bristles seem to really help soothe discomfort. I love that it’s lightweight and easy for tiny hands to hold on their own, plus the pacifier-style design keeps it from constantly getting dropped. It’s also super easy to clean." —Kylie

Price: $7.99+ (originally $9.99+; available in two pack sizes and four colorways — see all Razbaby deals here)

Promising review: "Surprisingly, so fun to play with, haha! Half the challenge is moving the pieces accurately without messing up the entire game. I love it. Worth every penny. All the same fun of Trouble without the extremely loud pop." —LT

Price: $5.60 (originally $9.99 — see more toy deals here)

Here's a TikTok video that shows how to play. It requires AAA batteries, so pick some up here.

BuzzFeed contributor John Mihaly has this to say about this game:

"We love the classic version in our home, and it's been in heavy rotation since we got our hands on it. The object of the game is to finish a puzzle using all 12 Kanoodle pieces. The 2D version lies flat, while the 3D version (you can play both with this set) requires you to build a pyramid of pieces. Simple, fun, and challenging (harder puzzles reveal fewer pieces to start)."

Promising review: "Very easy to use and fun for all ages. Great gift idea and is small and compact, so you can take it anywhere with you!" —Jocelyn

Price: $17.99 (typically $24.99) — find more Educational Insights deals here

Rebecca O'Connell: My baby has been obsessed with this toy since he got it at three months old. He likes to grab it with his arms and legs and then roll around while biting its face. Sometimes, I'll sit him in my lap and let him flip over the scales while I point out the different animals. During tummy time, he likes to crinkle the scales. It holds up to abuse, and I can see him loving this fish for many months to come! 

Promising review: "This is a well-made toy with bright colors, soft materials, and excellent quality. The size is perfect for little hands, and the different textures and features help keep children engaged. It is durable, attractive, and easy to use during play or therapy sessions. I am very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it." —Maria Tim

Promising reviews: "This swing is so worth it! I recently bought my first house and bought this for my nieces/nephews. Not only do the kiddos love it, but so do we adults!!! I’m about 130 pounds and have sat on it with my nieces and swung with no problem. My fiancé and dad have both sat on it as well. It’s very sturdy. Easy to put together. It will keep your household entertained anytime you go outside." —Angelina

"Fun for grownups, too! We purchased this for our little grandchildren to enjoy and then discovered that with the high load capacity, we could swing with them, too! The product is sturdy, easy to assemble, hang, and adjust the lengths of the ropes. It’s a great addition to our front yard and immediately became a neighborhood kid magnet, too! It’s only been up for a couple of weeks, but it has enjoyed hours of playtime." —Richard S

Price: $34.99 (originally $44.99; available in three styles)

There's an option to slightly incline the bassinet, but talk to your pediatrician before doing so. 

Promising review: "My newborn did not like the $80 bassinet we received from Target. She now sleeps 3-3.5 hour stretches at night (3.5 weeks old) in this Grownsy bassinet. The mattress is firm, yet soft for a baby." —Dr Pepper

Price: $183.99 (originally $229.99; available in two on-sale colors)

Promising review: "This cloud slime is the best. Not sticky, smells great, and comes with add-ins. I love the coconut smell and took that one for myself. Great sensory item for young kids and good stress reliever for older kids and adults." —A. G.

As a fun surprise, the front swings open to reveal a secret mini toy store. 

Promising review: "THIS is the greatest build since beginning my collection. Lego must be jealous because this is so great! Bricks clicked together so smoothly, and inside has the little toy shop that pulls out to get your ‘tokens’ back for another toy surprise! It even comes with the little containers, toys to build, and paper quotes to make the build even more enjoyable! Pictures don’t do this one justice, it’s just GREAT!!!! ❤️" —Jeanene

Relatable is a small business that sells card games/toys, plushies, and pool floats.

Check out a TikTok of the Silly Poopy in action. 

Promising review: "My 6- and 3-year-olds are OBSESSED. They play for an hour at least! Played with daily since we got it. When it’s my turn to hide, I make it tricky enough that I can actually be productive until it’s my turn again." —Cara Lentz

Price: $8.49 (originally $11.97; also available as an egg, a ghost, or gingerbread) — find more Relatable deals here

Why no, I have not seen Toy Story Five yet. Why do you ask?

Promising review: "Why didn't I buy this sooner? This tablet is awesome. My 2yr old and soon to be 4yr old they have been sharing an old iPad mini and after constantly fighting (anyone with tots will understand) with sharing it I finally thought it was time to splurge on them getting one to themselves after constantly researching this seemed like a great choice and it was! It’s easy to use, has great performance and more importantly is very educational which is the best part it has loads of educational content for them so at least if they are gonna be on the tablet I know they are learning something while on it not to mention I love how I can stop them and monitor them on the tablet all from my phone. Great buy!" —KattieMae

Price: $109.99 (originally $189.99; available in six styles, discount varies) — shop all the Fire Tablet deals here

BuzzFeed writer Mallory Mower says: "The pictures above (left) is of my daughter and her Toniebox. She is nearly three and her favorite part is organizing and playing with all the little characters. Our entire family loves the Animal World collection – the theme song is a constant hum in our house.

And here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga has to say: "This toy has bought me so much time. My kids adore theirs — even though they're only 4 and 2 — they have no problem understanding how to turn the Toniebox on, change the volume, and place different characters on top to tell various stories. He's a big fan, as am I! It can also be used while it's charging, so there's no need to worry about your toddler having a meltdown if they want to play with it while the battery is drained (phew)."

There are so many different Tonies you can add to keep the fun going — check 'em out.

Promising review: "We bought this one in the hopes of enough space for nieces and nephew to play too. Kid ages ranged from about 16 months to 6 and all 4 kids had a blast. The youngest sat in the lower basin to cool off while the older kids played with the rest. Was definitely worth it. We had countless hours of fun this summer." —Holly Lane

Price: $122.99 (originally $169.99 — see more Step2 deals here)

Heather Braga: My son was gifted this TWICE last holiday season, and we enjoyed it so much we honestly just kept both and sent one to my in-laws' house. The songs themselves are fun (thankfully) and won't make you want to rip all of your hair out. It's super simple for kids to use; both my 3-year-old and 1-year-old play with it easily. They love having the power to create their own music listening sesh without the help of mom or dad, and I love that it comes with a stand for housing all of the "records."

Buzzfeed contributor Samar Hadri: "Um, hi, hello, I LOVE THIS!!!! I recently got this playset, and let me tell you: GAME. CHANGER. My daughter is still pretty young, but she's been lovingggg this baby swing. No longer do I need to trudge out and find a park three times a day — this is the perfect solution for a little one who loves to run around.

My house is the new hot spot for my nieces and nephews, thanks to this. They literally beggg their parents to come to my house so that they can have fun on the swing and slide, without needing to actually go outdoors to a local park. 

And when I had guests come over for a dinner party just a few days after I first got this, I was super happy when I realized how easy it was to fold up and stick it into a closet. I literally almost cried tears of joy. If you have a little one, you need this ASAP."

Price: $229 (originally $299) — check out more Avenlur deals here

Promising review: "My daughter and I are learning how to play the guitar together. Even if we don't become rock stars the quality time we are spending together is all the justification I needed to make the purchase. The strings are perfect for her little fingers." —JSpriggins

Price: $95.20 (originally $119; available in seven colors — see more Loog deals here)

The set comes with translucent magnetic pieces to build 3D creations all day. Recommended for ages 3 and up. And! Magna-Tiles is a small business!

Here's BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga: "My 3-year-old is a BIG fan of Magna-Tiles and, honestly, so am I. They're really fun to play with! There's so much you can build with them! You can choose to follow the guidebooks that come with the sets or go rogue and make your own masterpiece. We're also loving the glittery Magna-Tiles castle (which is also 30% off AND it comes with a dragon!) My favorite thing about them is how easy they are to clean up. While we *also* love Lego, they are a serious pain to clean. The Magna-Tiles take seconds to clean up because you can quickly stack them all magnetically then put them away. I'm aiming to make my life even EASIER by getting this Magna-Tile storage bin (which also comes with a cool play mat)."

Promising reviews: "These magnets are great for independent toddler play! My 3-year-old loves building and creating with these. I suggest you buy a larger set. We have a set with over 100 pieces, but I bought this set as a Christmas gift! He is always wishing he had more pieces to finish his masterpieces." —Kayla M

Price: $34.99 for a 32-piece set (originally $49.99) — and shop all the Magna-Tiles deals here

There's a max weight is 220 pounds per person and a total weight capacity is 500 pounds. 

Promising review: "Like many parents, we are always looking for ways to give our little acceptable outlets for his energy. We retooled a spare room for his playroom and looked for something that would look great, hold up to abuse, give him hours of fun, and be a good value. This structure ticked all the boxes. We were a bit intimidated by the assembly, but it was completely unnecessary! The instructions are clear, well documented, you can see every screw in the picture which is incredibly rare. Every piece lined up exactly right. This is a stellar value and we are so happy we made this purchase." —Katherine

Promising review: "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn't NEED a depressed duck lamp ... but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It's terrific." —Literated

The bundle comes with one regular Amazon Echo Dot (5th Gen, 2022 release) and the Jack Skellington shell, which is removable if you want to be boring later. 

Promising review: "This is my first home 'smart device' and I have to say that it's pretty good. I use it to turn on/off lights in almost every room in my home, which has made a small impact on my electric usage. The music and 'Easter Eggs' make it fun.. The sound is very good for such a small device as well. So far, I like it." —Joseph E. Nash

Price: $66.98 (originally $89.98; available in three styles — see all Amazon device deals here) 

Promising review: "This is the cutest sweater and is such great quality. My 8-month-old looks adorable, and it’s very soft and keeps her warm! It fits true to size. I just put it in the dryer on cool only so it doesn’t shrink. Overall, it’s adorable and worth the price in my opinion." —Taylor

Price: $15.68+ (typically $24.21+; available in sizes 0M–4T and four colors)

Promising review: "Obsessed!!! I really like this swaddle! The arms-up design allows babies to self-soothe while still feeling snug and secure. The fabric is soft, the color is cute, and the zipper makes diaper changes easy. It fits well and helps reduce the startle reflex, making sleep time a little easier for both baby and parents." —Heather

Price: $24.46 (originally $34.95; available in three sizes)

Promising review: "Bought this by accident because I thought these were baby flash cards. Saw these were actually a card game and tried it with my husband and fell in love with this game. It's fun and competitive :D" —ChocorateChippu

Price: $7.99 (typically $9.99 — see all Taco Cat deals here)

Promising review: "Cute as heck. My little brother likes it. Very soft and squishy, but holds shape well. Seems larger than I expected for the price and very well constructed. Good value for the money." —SiejeCraft

BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown says: "At first, he liked knocking down the stacks I made, when he was about one, he liked to carefully take the stacks apart one cup at a time (most of the time; sometimes there was still an epic tower topple). Now that he's almost two, he can stack and nest them himself, too, and we love playing with the biggest one in the bathtub, because it has lots of little holes in it. They're soft, so when they fall, they don't make a loud noise or have the potential to bonk anyone's head. Sometimes I put Cheerios in them too, for fun!"

Promising review: "I bought these for my 1-year-old as a new toy for a trip with several plane rides. It was a hit! Since it is made of silicone, I did not have to worry about loud sounds that would distract other passengers, and they didn’t slide around on the tray tables. Both my toddlers enjoyed stacking and sorting things (like pom poms) with these cups. Since they are made of food-grade silicone, I saved the bigger cups to hold snacks on the plane (but also brought pacifier wipes to clean them if needed). They are super easy to clean when you arrive at your destination and can be used in the bath or at the pool/beach. I now recommend these to all my friends traveling with young toddlers!" —M
