If you’re looking for a toy that brings endless joy to your child and instant chaos to your household, this remote control spider is the winner. My son got it for Christmas, and it has quickly become his favorite pastime—and his sister’s worst nightmare.
The spider is surprisingly realistic, and the way it scuttles across the floor is equal parts amazing and terrifying. It’s so lifelike that even I jumped the first time it zipped under the couch! My son has become a self-proclaimed “Spider Commander,” gleefully sneaking up on his sister to unleash tiny screams of horror. (The best moment so far: he parked it in her shoe. Classic.)
On the bright side, it’s teaching her to always double-check her surroundings, so life skills are being developed here, folks. As for the toy itself, it’s sturdy, the controls are easy for kids to master, and the battery life is solid (too solid, if you ask my daughter).
Highly recommend if you enjoy laughter, screams, and the occasional heart-stopping spider ambush. Just be prepared for your kid to get a little too creative with their pranks. 10/10, would buy again—though my daughter might say otherwise.
Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!
