6 New Amazon Toys Grownups Will Love This Holiday Season
Amazon Echo
Sporting a smaller design and enhanced sound, this device connects to Alexa via a cloud system to play music, set timers, tell you what the weather is, update your shopping list, and more. We’re loving the gorgeous oak finish which blends beautifully into a bedroom or living room, but the Walnut and Heather Grey are beauts too.

Echo Plus
The Echo Plus is a winning smart home hub that can connect to other devices (like smart lights and locks) in a cinch. Aurally speaking, you’re in for a treat with “360° omni-directional audio.” Translation: Mid-day grooving to Dolly never felt better.

Echo Spot
We sure do love the sleek screen here, y’all. Consider this fun toy a smart alarm clock on steroids. The Echo Spot can turn off your lights, tell you your estimated commute time, make calls, check the weather. It can even present you with your calendar. On that note, we think we’ll go back to sleep now.
