Where to Shop for Kids On Oahu
The Growing Keiki
This Haleiwa-based store is too cute for words! Next time you’re on Oahu’s North Shore, you have to stop by this charming shop for all things keiki. Here you can find locally-made gifts, souvenirs and toys. Their to-die-for swaddle blankets come in a variety of kawaii local prints, and make a perfect baby shower gift. Don’t forget baby onesies and outfits, including aloha shirt inspired outfits. Additionally, you can also pick up Hawaii-themed dolls, toys and books. They don’t only carry infant-sizes, so stop in for the bigger kid in your life too. Definitely one of the best places to shop for kids on Oahu.
SoHa Keiki
SoHa Keiki is the children’s division of SoHa Living, a local chain focused on home and living, Hawaii style. You can find SoHa Keiki shops throughout the Islands, but if you’re a visitor, there is one conveniently located in Waikiki on Lewers Street. Stop in here to shop for Hawaii-inspired linens, bags, accessories, clothing, bath items, stationary, toys, dining items, room decor, beach essentials and even back to school supplies. Your kid is sure to be the envy of her friends with SoHa Keiki gear!
Kira x Miffy
Although not as “Hawaiian” as the first two, Kira x Miffy is as adorable as they come. This concept shop marries US brand Kira and Dutch character Miffy. Located in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center in Waikiki, stop in for a dose of “happy”. While you’ll find lots of Miffy-themed merch, they also have a wide array of locally-inspired jewelry, accessories, clothing, postcards, toys and more. This store is always a must-visit with my daughter and niece.
Sanrio Surprises
While not technically a “Hawaii souvenir shop”, Sanrio Surprises is the perfect place to shop for kids on Oahu who want to be like kids who live on Oahu. Everything in this pastel and vanilla scented store is covet-worthy. This locally-owned boutique is perfect for the Sanrio lover in your life. Located in Kahala Mall, a short drive outside Waikiki.
