Best-Selling Kids Products

“STEM Toy of the Year. My kid plays with the box. I'm not kidding. I set up the marble run, demonstrated the physics, felt like a great parent for three minutes, and then she spent an hour putting the marbles in and out of the box it came in. Still a great toy though.”

“The toy every parent eventually buys. You resist because they seem overpriced. Then your kid plays with them at a friend's house and won't leave. You order them in the car on the way home. They're magnetic tiles. They're worth it. End of debate.”

“36 colors. All will become brown. It's a law of physics. You start with a beautiful rainbow of 36 distinct colors and within 48 hours they're all a single shade of brownish-gray. My daughter calls it 'chocolate color.' I call it entropy.”

“The road trip savior. Seven dollars buys you approximately 45 minutes of silence in the back seat. That's $9.33 per hour of peace, which is cheaper than therapy and more effective than screen time. I buy these in bulk before every car trip.”

“Geology for kids = 2 weeks of waiting. It's a machine that tumbles rocks into shiny gems over 7-14 days. The first day is exciting. Days 2 through 13 are just a loud machine in the corner of your house. Day 14 is magical. It's basically the stock market for children.”
