ChompSaw — This is your kid’s first real power tool! The ChompSaw makes cutting cardboard a breeze while keeping fingers, hair, and clothes completely safe. Watch big ideas come to life as ordinary cardboard transforms into extraordinary projects, like fantastic forts, DIY costumes, and educational dioramas! It works like a rapid-fire hole punch that nibbles away at cardboard, with a gap too small for little fingers to fit into and no spinning parts to catch on hair. The ChompSaw is designed primarily for cardboard up to 3mm thick (think Amazon delivery boxes) but also works great with materials like paper, craft foam, felt, and fabric. Named one of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2025 and seen on Shark Tank, this machine is fully safety-certified, allowing kids as young as 3 years old to explore creative thinking, design principles, spatial reasoning, and power tool safety. Chompshop also offers accessories and project templates for more advanced makers. The ChompSaw retails for $249 and is available at chompshop.com and on Amazon.

Bark Phone & Bark Watch — For years, the award-winning Bark Phone and Bark Watch have been go-to picks for families looking for connection without compromise, and this year they’ve both levelled up. The Bark Phone, already a top-rated kid-safe smartphone and winner of PC Mag’s Editors’ Choice Award three years running, now includes major new safety upgrades like Explicit Image Blocking, which detects and prevents inappropriate images from being saved, shared, or hidden, and Spotify Message Monitoring, a timely update that alerts parents if strangers message their child through Spotify’s new DM feature. Along with Bark’s built-in parental controls, GPS tracking, driving mode, screen time management, call and text monitoring, tamper-proof design, and the ability to prevent text deletion, the Bark Phone has become one of the smartest, safest devices a child can carry. It starts at $240 plus monthly cellular service – with big holiday savings across Bark.us and Amazon, including $75 off with code WOW75 through Dec. 5 on Bark.us and 40% off the Bark Phone during Amazon’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday events. The Bark Watch, recently recognized by New York Magazine’s The Strategist as a “Best in Class” pick, also got a set of upgrades this year. Kids get longer battery life, fun customizable watchbands, GPS tracking, and parent-approved calling and messaging making it an ideal choice for walking to and from school, after-school activities, sleepaway camp, or for families who want connection without a full smartphone. If you’re looking to gift independence, connection, and genuine peace of mind this season, the Bark Phone and Bark Watch — along with Bark’s full suite of online safety tools — stand out for their thoughtful design, trusted monitoring, and real-world practicality. Make sure to add your name to Bark’s email list for exclusive deals. Shop holiday deals or learn more at Bark.us.
