11 random inventions for kids that are helpful to parents

There are so many products out there for kids that parents get really overwhelmed while shopping. Now all parents need to buy the basics like high chairs, strollers, car seats and bottles but what about those inexpensive smaller inventions that not many people know about? The majority of these are mom inventions so you know they had the right experience to build something. There is really some good stuff out there that helps make our lives as parents easier. Here is my list of my favorite things I have bought that have really helped me when doing things with my kids. Now they are not in any specific order or category and some of this stuff is really random but man it’s been pretty useful for my family.

 

The Potty Hook: This thing helps keep the clutter out of your bathroom…you know we are always looking to reduce clutter! It takes two seconds to put on your toilet and your kids can even put the seat back on the hook. It’s a great help during potty training. You can buy it here: Potty Hook

Car Seat Sunshade: So we just took a trip to Phoenix, AZ where it was like 115 degrees! My San Diego kids were not used to this and I started doing research on how to keep their car seats cool! Great invention and it’s just like a sun shade for your car. You can buy it here: Car Seat Sunshade

Cups and Cargo Stroller Organizer: This thing is awesome! If you are going to an amusement park or plan to be out all day on your stroller get this.

It helps take that frantic mode out of you when you think you know where something is but really can’t find it anywhere. You can buy it here: Cups and Cargo Stroller Organizer

Finger Safety Door Stop Guard: How many times have your little ones smashed their fingers in the door or drawer while you were not looking? My little one does this all the time so I bought these safe guards that have helped so much! The best part, they get so caught up in taking the guard off they forget about playing in the drawer.

These things are great and disposable so you can just throw them away when you are done. You can buy them here: Table Toppers
