A spider plush proves that a little creature with eight legs can be truly adorable. From 50 to 150 cm and true to life, our spider soft toys keep company with children who love nature, fans of little critters and anyone who likes something different. With their bendable legs, they also make a surprising decoration for Halloween.
The spider plush, a little critter made for cuddles
Spiders spark as much curiosity as they do caution. As a plush, they show a whole new side: a woolly body, eight bendable legs and eyes that give them a striking look. It proves you can love little creatures without a fright, and it is a playful way to see them differently. A spider teddy delights children who love exploring nature just as much as grown-ups who enjoy things out of the ordinary.
Lifelike or giant: find your spider soft toy
Every spider plush has its own personality. In general, kawaii designs go for rounded shapes, gentle colours and an irresistible gaze, perfect for the youngest, while lifelike designs recreate the hairy legs and silhouettes of real species, such as a tarantula plush, for budding naturalists. Our current spiders are lifelike: the 50 cm size goes on a shelf or a table, while larger designs, up to 150 cm, become true companions for parties and Halloween displays.
Who is it for, and for which occasion?
A spider plush makes an original gift for a birthday, the end of the school year or simply as a surprise. It is also right at home at Halloween, bringing a seasonal touch without anything too scary: find more ideas in our Halloween plush selection. As decoration, it brightens up a child’s bedroom, a reading nook or a desk, and fans of all things cute will happily pair it with our kawaii plush.

Our spider plush in detail
Our spider plush selection features realistic designs: a black spider with red eyes and a colourful Halloween spider, whose colour is sent at random. Their flexible legs bend and stretch, so you can pose them above an entrance, around a table or on a piece of furniture, and change the scene for every occasion.
Each design comes in several sizes: 50 cm, 75 cm, 90 cm and a giant 150 cm. Reusable from one year to the next, they suit Halloween as well as a birthday or a fancy dress party, and they give children plenty of ideas for stories and role play.

Frequently asked questions
Is a spider plush suitable for a young child?
It depends on the design. Our current spider plush toys are realistic decorations with bendable legs, so they are best enjoyed by older children and adults, or displayed out of reach of little ones. Kawaii designs, with soft shapes and a cheerful look, are often the favourites of little ones: take a look at our kawaii plush selection.
What size spider plush should I choose?
It depends on how it will be used: a 50 or 75 cm spider for a shelf or a table, a 90 or 150 cm one for a striking display at an entrance or in the garden. The exact size of each design is listed on its product page.
Is it a good gift idea for Halloween?
Absolutely: the spider plush brings the Halloween spirit in a playful version, ideal for a party, a birthday or a fancy dress evening.
Are there giant house spiders in the UK?
Yes, the giant house spider lives in the UK and is often spotted indoors in late summer and autumn. At 150 cm, our biggest spider plush is far bigger, but it won’t run across your living room!
