Mom Regrets Buying Her Kid A Scream-Activated Spider Toy From Amazon After Learning How It Works

Christmas gifts shopping season is in full swing, and you may be on the lookout for nice gifts for the children in your life. Alabama mom Hilary Hard, 22, was sure that she had found the perfect children toy for her son Leo, a scream-activated cute spider that could keep the energetic toddler entertained for hours. Having received the audio-activated arachnid early, she couldn’t resist trying it out.

    After uploading her funny fail on Facebook, the post quickly went viral. “I’m so glad my little man made you laugh and impressed you with his bravery,” Hilary wrote in response. “You can imagine how lucky I am to be Leo’s mom. He’s hilarious and full of heart and I can’t wait to share with him, when he’s older, how many people he made laugh. There’s an overwhelming amount of attention that’s come our way recently and I just want to thank you all for sharing the moment with us!”

    The kid’s toys, known as Yellies! have since increased in price and appear to be selling like hotcakes. Voice and sound-activated, they respond to talking, yelling, clapping, singing, and even music. The louder you yell, the faster the spider toys go! Every year there seems to be some kind of ‘must-have’ toy that your children will be demanding, from Furbies to Bratz, we’ve seen them all. Could this be the 2018 version? Would you buy your child one of these or rather stick to the old-fashion plush toys? Let us know what you think in the comments!

    Buy like 50 and when your child is being loud, unleash them all and tell the child to stop screaming or they'll be eaten

    The recommended age is 5 and above and this boy looks clearly much younger. At his young age children are easily scared and shouldn't get such a present.

    My folks took me to see Texas Chainsaw Massacre at the drive-in when I was 5. I think this kid will survive a toy spider, lol.
