I may be years away from having children of my own, but I love spoiling my friends’ children as well as my younger brother and sister. I get to act like the cool aunt that always travels and does cool things and buys them fun things. It’s a bragging right that I very much enjoy having.
Of course, I do most of my shopping on Amazon. I get whatever I want with the press of a button, the products are super affordable, and the site has everything I could possibly ask for–what more could you want? So it’s no surprise that I do most of my children’s shopping there too. So whether you’re looking for useful products for a newborn, learning tools for toddlers, or fun games for the whole family to enjoy, these 37 items are perfect for kids of all ages. And as someone who is around children of all ages a lot, trust me when I say these are good.
