Promising review: "Item arrived on time and in perfect condition. It comes with several durable tools. There's a piece of cardboard on the inside of the package. We used it as a mat for the sand. Super easy clean up and absolutely NOOOO mess. This is a great alternative to slime...and it doesn't dry out." —CamoFreaks

Price: $19.99

Promising review: I had to take a road trip with my four kids ages 8–3 months by myself; it was 13.5 hours without stopping. Needless to say, it took us 18 hours. This was a hit. I got it for my 3-year-old, but my older two loved it as well! — CB007

Price: $9.97

Promising review: "This set is the real deal. It's basically a mini version of what an adult uses. The sticks are real wood and thick. I bought this set for my nephew, who is strong and husky. These may be a little on the heavy side for a smaller child. I am very happy with the purchase. These are good quality." —SunnyCa805

Price: $16.99

Promising review: "I love this Melissa & Doug calendar. I'm using it for homeschool and speech. It's great. My daughter is learning all the months, days, seasons, temperatures, activities, feelings, and holidays. This is great for speech because there's so much language to learn from it." —zippy

Promising review: "Bought this wagon for my 2-year-old granddaughter and her best friend when we take them to the park and such...I love it! Has shade, turns into a bench, is very lightweight, fits nicely in the trunk, two cup holders, and my favorite part is it has a folding shelf that you can use to put your cooler or whatnot on and secure it!!!! Can't go wrong with this wagon." —VeryFrequentShopper

Price: $159

Promising review: "Adjustable lengths. Strong enough for an adult and fun for toddlers. Just read the instructions on how it fits in the door jam, not the whole door frame. There’s videos showing set up and installation too." —Fi

Price: $139+ (available in four colors)

Promising review: "Great for the price! Easy instructions. Comes with the mount to hold the rubber bands. My 7-year-old's new obsession!! Can bring this anywhere and everywhere. Love it has the carrying case. And when the rubber bands run out you can refill the case." —Walmart Customer

Promising review: "Fun! My grandkids had an interesting time opening these dinosaur eggs. They must be cracked open outside. It can get rather sandy when digging the dinosaur out of the egg. It was well worth the time spent after opening. The dinosaur was a wonderful reward for the future archeologists!" —Laurel

Price: $26.99

Promising review: "I was looking for the right tea-set for my 5-year-old daughter. She had a ceramic one which was great but very delicate and had already broken, chipped off in many places. This one is perfect; it's a good size, has lovely colors, and my daughter loves to pretend play and makes tea for all of us :). We are an environmentally friendly family, so we love that its green and made with recycled material. Also love the fact that its dishwasher safe!" —Walmart Customer

Promising review: "We purchased the Magna-Tiles for our 4-year-old grandson's birthday because our other grandchildren with the age range of 8-16 play with a set we keep at our house. After giving the gift to the 4-year-old, he was playing and building with them the next day." —Steve

Promising review: "Omg, my great-granddaughter likes to play pirate, but she doesn't know how to close one eye to look through a telescope, so the binoculars are perfect. She loves to look at the moon and when airplanes fly by she gets so excited looking at them now. Loves to see the stars at night. This is a great idea for little ones that love adventures." —Jennifer
