The Best Giant Stuffed Animals — Because Sometimes Big Just Isn’t Big Enough
Sometimes, especially when it comes to gifts, a regular-sized stuffed animal just doesn’t cut it. You still want something cute and cozy that’ll make more of a splash; something that’s impossible to ignore. You want a giant stuffed animal.
It may sound no different from a regular stuffed animal, but to a child, a giant stuffed animal can elicit shock and awe as you’ve never seen before. They may not have even known such a thing exists! Like the teddy bear they sleep with at night, but 10 times larger? What could be more exciting? You can find almost any type of stuffed animal in a larger-than-life option these days, from giant stuffed animal puppy dogs that basically function as floor pillows to sink into while watching TV to freestanding giraffes that can watch over you while you sleep.
If you’re looking for a gift to surprise and delight the young one in your life, you really can’t go wrong with a giant stuffed animal. Check out some of these snuggly options to grab for the holidays or any gifting occasion.
1. Jumbo Teddy Bear
BEST CLASSIC
The most classic giant stuffed animal you could get is this jumbo teddy bear. He sits up on his own and has that warm, happy face that just makes you want to hug him. It’s a great gift to keep in the kid’s playroom or bedroom or to just plop on the floor in front of the TV so they have something to sit with and lean against while they watch their shows.
2. Giant Plush Tiger
MOST REGAL
This guy for sure makes more of an aesthetic statement than a cuddly, cozy one. It’s a giant stuffed animal tiger and it’s a bit more firm, so it may not be as comfy to cuddle with, but kids will love how cool it looks sitting beside them. It’s also high quality and lifelike with a washable surface in case it falls victim to any spills.
3. Giant Giraffe
TALLEST
If you want something that’ll make the little ones awestruck, this is the giant stuffed animal for you. The smallest members of the family will love looking up at the cute giraffe face and hugging whatever they can reach. It’s crafted with care to have realistic details and beautiful markings. You’ll basically be bringing a safari home with this guy.
4. Large Sloth Stuffed Animal
MOST HUGGABLE
This large stuffed sloth gets almost exclusively five-star ratings from satisfied customers. It comes in three sizes, ranging from large to extra large to extra, extra large. It’s incredibly soft, fluffy and squishy, making it the best giant stuffed animal to hug and cuddle.

For those that are more into animals that travel by sea than by land, this octopus is the perfect giant stuffed animal.
