Little one on the way? Luckily there are plenty of gadgets to help the 21st century mom and dad including Kinsa, The World’s Smartest Thermometer. I scoured registry favorites Target and Amazon for the best of baby tech to satisfy any new parent’s needs.

Arguably one of the most helpful inventions for parents, baby bouncers can offer much needed rest for mom’s tired arms. This one goes high tech with 5 unique motions that mimic mom’s moves, and bluetooth-enabled sound and motion control so you can adjust it right from your smartphone. Available at Target and Amazon.

This high chair is a dream for parents of kids who haven’t yet learned to not play with their food. It’s easy to clean, with no cracks and crevices. It auto-adjusts height using hydraulics to fit any table and is equipped with breaks to keep your little one from rolling away. Available at Target and Amazon.

An elephant may not be the first thing on your registry list, but this is smarter than the ordinary elephant. It pairs with any Bluetooth enabled device and allows you to play just about any music, sounds or stories for your child, including a recording of your own voice. You can speak to your child through Kumki and it acts as a wireless speaker.Available at Amazon.
