What Should I Get for My Kids on Prime Day?
If you are looking to make the most of their gaming while still letting them choose a bit for themselves, some great options are the Backbone One, which lets them get the most out of gaming on their phone, as well as some cash for PlayStation network, letting them pick up some new games that look cool to them.
And, of course, Game Pass lets them play tons of games on Xbox or PC, which has tons of flexibility (although be careful about what they can download, based on their age, but there are settings to run that sort of stuff). You can also grab discounts on tons of tablets, which are great for games, reading, and watching their favorite shows, and with Halloween around the corner, you can also grab a ton of cool costumes.
Nintendo Gifts For Kids
What kid doesn't love Nintendo stuff? I know I sure did when I was a youngster. If you know a kid who would go for Mario, Pokemon, Kirby, and all of that, here are some great options for you.
What is Prime Big Deal Days/ October Prime Day?
If you've been struggling to Google the latest sale, then don't worry, you're in the same boat as the rest of us. Amazon seems to be set on not calling the current event Prime Day 2 (despite it feeling like it is). Instead, the event is called Prime Big Deal Days (or you'll even find some outlets referring to it as October Prime Day). For simplicity, we're suggesting just checking our relevant articles listed below, and staying plugged in to our deals coverage on Twitter/X or Deals Discord.
