Toyland Two-Toned Giant Snake Soft Toy, 67 in

Why we make it

We think every bedroom needs one slightly ridiculous resident. Ours is a two-toned snake that runs about 67 inches from nose to tail, soft all the way along, and surprisingly good at listening to the day's news before lights out.

He travels well from room to room: around shoulders at breakfast, across the couch for a movie, back to bed by eight. When the cold months arrive, lay him against the gap under the door and he earns his keep as a draft stopper.
