Standout gifts for kids (0-7 years)

Amazon makes it easy to find a deal on gifts for young kids, with categories like toys, games and books. There are also discounts on a range of baby supplies like prams and carriers if you’re after a gift for the parent.

Standout gifts for kids (8-12 years)

Buying gifts for kids can be as simple as looking for products you secretly want for yourself. Along with the deals below, Amazon is offering discounts on many sought-after LEGO items, but you might have to be quick, with many in Amazon’s Lightning Sale section that offers bigger discounts for a shorter time.

Standout gifts for teens

Teenagers can be notoriously hard to shop for, but with deals on tech, fashion, gaming and sports products, you should be able to find something to fit their interests. Or, if your teen is a reader, there are deals on both paper and Kindle young-adult books.

Standout gifts for adults in their 20s & 30s

With many in their 20s and 30s moving out of home or getting into the property market, there are plenty of gift options in kitchen appliances and homewares that’ll make their day.

Standout gifts for adults in their 40s & 50s

If you’ve ever been gift shopping for your parents you probably know this can be a tricky group to buy for. Consider looking into luxuries they wouldn’t buy for themselves, like a robot vacuum or smart watch.

Standout gifts for those 60+

For those with time on their hands post-retirement, you can find deals on a range of travel and outdoors products. Or, consider making home life easier with multi-use kitchen appliances and massagers.
