As a first time parent, it’s hard to know what we “must have” for our baby and kids. With experience (and trial and error) we usually figure it out….but then add in “life” and sometimes we just need suggestions!

We polled our audience for their “baby and kid must haves” and here is what they said!

These “baby and kid must haves” range in ages from baby to teen and are great necessities and activities to keep them busy, engaged and learning along the way!

With summer coming, even if you have an awesome summer bucket list or are planning to go to summer camp, having some of these products or activities on hand would make the long summer days more interesting and for the older kids, definitely less “mom I’m bored!”
