Skip the recordable plush toy — save the $25 for literally anything else

Skip it. Save the $25 and put it toward literally anything else. Generic recordable plush toys are a classic trap — they feel like a personalized gift but the recording quality is terrible, the novelty wears off in two days, and the toy itself is just cheap stuffed animal with a plastic voice box rattling around inside. If you need a gift for a kid who already has everything, buy an experience instead — a cooking class, a trampoline park trip, something that becomes a memory instead of clutter.
