It’s very likely not charity to them.
Think about it this way. If you had a really good friend that maybe wasn’t doing as well financially and you had to get them something for their birthday, and you knew there was something they wanted that they couldn’t afford but you could easily get for them, would you feel like you were doing charity or just something nice for a nice person?
Don’t let pride get in the way. Just think about what’s best for your kid and if he gets some nice things here and there, no big deal as long as he’s not getting hurt or used.
It could actually end up being a valuable friendship and not cause of how rich these people are. You never know.

But isn’t that still your pride talking?
I guess what I’m trying to get at here is that I doubt the people giving the gift see your son (or you) as a charity case. To your son’s best friend it’s just about giving his bestie a gift he knows he’ll like
