Despite having acquired tons of water bottles for my kids over the years, we always seem to need new ones. This one's too heavy, that one leaks — we're constantly in search of a Goldilocks tumbler that will be easy for my little ones to use (and impossible to forget at school).

If you're in the market for a Stanley-style straw tumbler for your mini-me, these vivid colors — and sub-$20 price tag — makes this 24-ounce option from Simple Modern hard to pass up. The spill-proof cup is made from stainless steel and is designed with a tapered bottom so that it can fit into into a cupholder.

Do you have a first-aid kit in your trunk or glove compartment? If you don't, might as well just add this to your cart today. The moment my kids start wearing shorts every day (ie, when the weather warms up) the incidence of skinned knees skyrockets, and I've been caught without Band-Aids after many a scooter spill.

This all-purpose kit comes in a reusable case, and with a whole bunch of things that make sense to have on hand just in case: Band-Aids in a variety of sizes, Neosporin, Benadryl for bug bits, and even gauze for more gnarly cuts.
