Cuddly toys and stuffed animals have an eternal appeal for kids.

Cute, plush, comforting, it's hard to go wrong. There are plenty of stuffed toys on the market, and they come in all shapes and sizes, so it can sometimes be a challenge knowing where to go for your perfect stuffed animal.

Thankfully, we've picked the best giant teddy bears available - and some of them truly are big (think over six feet tall), so be sure that the recipient of your gift has enough space to keep their new cuddly friend! When thinking about wrapping them, it's unlikely you'll get wrapping paper around a giant teddy bear's shape, so consider using some ribbon and a nice bow to add a dash of colour to the present.

If teddy bears aren't quite your thing, we've also recommended the best Peter Rabbit toys too, and if you know any unicorn lovers, we've checked out the best unicorn onesies available. They'll add a touch of magic and sparkle to any bedtime.

Our Top Choice

Jumbo Brown Teddy Bear - Dunelm

We love this teddy bear because of the plush fabric with which it's made, making this a super soft and cosy friend to have around on chilly winter evenings. It's also great value for money, and we particularly like that it's a darker brown colour, as most teddy bears available tend to be a paler sand or beige colour. The dark brown makes this teddy bear look more like its real life counterparts, the Grizzly Bear, but we're certain this big toy is a better pal to have around the house. Be aware that it's hand wash only.

  • Price: £20
  • Ages: Suitable for kids from birth up

Best Giant Teddy Bear For Families On A Budget

Snuggle Buddies 100cm Teddy Bear - The Entertainer Toy Shop

There will be hugs galore handed out by this big ol' fluffy, squidgy, teddy bear, so this is a great gift option for kids who are particularly tactile and love to get cosy with their toys. Their new pal will stand at 100cm tall, which is significantly bigger than any other stuffed animals they may have, ensuring the bear is a unique, memorable gift. This also means that he's likely to be slightly too big for the washing machine, so be sure to stress that hand washes are best after mucky adventures. We're sold.

  • Price: £14.99
  • Ages: Suitable for kids from 12 months and over

Best Cuddly Giant Teddy Bear

Giant Bear Toy - The White Company

We're so taken by this big teddy bear that we may well have to purchase one for ourselves. Super-soft fake fur has a plush and luxurious hand feel, and the fact that his body is filled with beans makes the teddy satisfyingly squidgy and malleable, so he's great as either a cuddle companion or a pillow. A favourite for little ones - and slightly more grown ones - alike. Best of all, he's machine washable, so can easily recover from any accidents or muddy adventures.

  • Price: £96
  • Ages: We recommend for kids from 12 months and over

Best Personalised Giant Teddy Bear

Personalised Super Soft Large Bear Soft Toy - My 1st Years

The fact that this lovely teddy bear can be personalised is the icing on the cake, making it a truly unique gift for kids of any age, and a present that they are likely to treasure for years to come. Add up to eight characters to the left foot of the teddy for free, and watch as kids fall in love with their new plush pal. Plus, because the teddy is made of 100% cotton, it's machine washable at 30 degrees, making it easy breezy for his new parents to keep him clean.

  • Price: £35
  • Ages: We recommend for kids from 12 months and over

Best Tempur Giant Teddy Bear

Tempur Plush Pillow Bear - Tempur

Tempur is a truly luxurious fabric. It has visco-elastic cells that mould and adapt to the shape of each individual's body,  making it extra squashy and therefore super comfortable, providing unparalleled support and comfort. This teddy bear pillow is an adorable way to both gain a new best friend and have a fabulously huggable pillow. When folded flat, the teddy can be used just like a supportive pillow, but folded up, you have a plush teddy bear. What's not to love?

  • Price: £39
  • Ages: We recommend for kids from 12 months and over

Best Beige Giant Teddy Bear

Brown Bear Plush 100cm - Smyths Toys

Time to get cuddly with this new friend. Fabulously soft and generously filled, this teddy makes an ideal present for children of any gender, or a delightful gift to a new parent, thanks to the multiple hugs that he promises to bestow on his new owner.

  • Ages: Suitable for kids from birth and up

Best Huge Teddy Bear

MorisMos Giant Huge Teddy Bear - Amazon

This teddy really is a big boy, measuring at over six feet tall, so be sure that any kids lucky enough to receive him are ready to commit to such a substantial stuffed animal. He'll take up a whole double bed if you let him, but he'll never leave you needing cuddles. This super soft teddy will give you the biggest bear hug he can, but don't worry, because he comes shrink wrapped for ease of delivery.

Best Giant Panda Bear

Hey, a giant panda bear is still a giant teddy bear - of a kind. And this one is too cute not to include on our list. Plus, he comes from the well-loved brand Melissa & Doug, a company that's dedicated to promoting play, encouraging creativity, and nurturing the imagination of children. This panda bear sits at over two feet tall and will hug anyone who approaches - but be warned, the kids may never want to leave the warm embrace of his snuggles.

Best Giant Stuff Animal

Jellycat Bashful Bunny Giant Toy - The White Company‍

Not technically a teddy bear, but still an absolutely adorable soft toy, and one that we couldn't resist including - who could say no to those floppy ears and little pink nose? Jellycat is also a hugely popular brand which has been selling quality cuddly toys for years, and this giant rabbit is a bigger version of their bestselling bunny. An enchanting toy thanks to the super soft white fur and adorable facial features, we're sure this will be a big hit with any child lucky enough to receive it.
