Most people either scream when they see a snake… or they want to own fifteen of them. If you’re shopping for someone in the second category, welcome. Snake lovers are a specific breed—equal parts fearless, curious, and totally fascinated by these slithery creatures. Whether it’s your niece with the snake stuffie collection or your boyfriend who thinks he’s a reptile whisperer, you’re in the right place.
Below you’ll find fun, weird, and charming gifts that snake people actually want—without having to gift them a real python (you’re welcome).
Snake Gifts for Kids
1. Snake Plush Toy
For the snake-loving kid who wants to cuddle their favorite reptile without the bite, a soft and stretchy snake plush is a perfect pick. These come in all sizes—some are hilariously long and coil around like a real boa. Great for naps, road trips, or terrorizing unsuspecting relatives. Bonus points if it has a realistic pattern and beady eyes.
2. Snake Puzzle
A snake-shaped puzzle is the kind of quiet-time activity that somehow feels slightly rebellious. These puzzles often come in fun shapes or feature vibrant snake patterns, making them a great rainy-day gift. Whether it’s a wooden puzzle for toddlers or a tricky 500-piece for older kids, it’s got enough edge to keep them hooked.
3. Snake Pajamas for Kids
Yes, these exist—and yes, they’re adorable. Snake-print pajamas are one of those gifts kids don’t realize they need until they’re wearing them nonstop. They come in cottony soft sets with realistic or cartoon snakes slithering all over. Perfect for the kid who loves reptiles and refuses to go to bed without a hissy friend.
4. Snake Coloring Book
A surprisingly soothing activity for any young herpetologist. These coloring books often feature cobras, boas, vipers—you name it—all in wild, swirling jungle scenes. Pair it with a fresh pack of markers or crayons and you’ve got yourself a solid screen-free gift. Works for car rides, rainy days, or winding down after a zoo trip.
5. Snake Backpack
This is not your average dinosaur backpack. A snake-themed backpack makes a bold statement for any kid who likes to turn heads in the school hallway. Look for styles with 3D snakes, colorful scales, or even plush tails that wiggle. It’s functional, fun, and just the right amount of dramatic.
6. Snake Lego or Building Sets
There’s something deeply satisfying about building your own serpent brick by brick. Several building sets—whether actual LEGO or off-brand kits—feature snakes as the main character, or part of a jungle or ninja theme. Great for creative kids who like engineering challenges but still want a little reptile danger mixed in.
7. Snake Hoodie for Kid
Some of these snake hoodies have eyes on the hood, scales on the back, and even a forked tongue on the zipper. It’s part costume, part daily wear, and all awesome. Perfect for chilly school days, reptile-themed birthday parties, or just looking fierce at the playground.
8. Snake Water Bottle
Why carry a boring bottle when you can sip from one that looks like it belongs in a jungle? Snake-print or snake-themed water bottles are a fun, useful gift that still screams personality. Look for BPA-free designs with fun artwork or slithering textures, perfect for school or camp.
Snake Gifts for Adults
9. Snake Jewelry
Snake-themed jewelry somehow walks the line between elegant and edgy. Whether it’s a gold serpent ring coiled around your finger or a dainty necklace with a tiny cobra pendant, it adds instant personality. Perfect for anyone who wants to show their love for snakes without wearing a full-blown python print.
10. Snake Wine Bottle Holder
One part home decor, one part conversation piece. A coiled snake-shaped wine holder looks cool on any countertop and gives off strong “don’t touch my merlot” energy. Great for snake lovers who enjoy a glass of red, a good pun, or simply want something a little wild in the kitchen.
11. Snake Print Blanket
Soft, cozy, and just the right amount of intimidating, snake print blankets are perfect for curling up with a book about venomous vipers. They usually come in bold designs—think python or rattlesnake patterns—and work equally well on a couch, bed, or even a dorm room floor.
12. Snake Wall Art
Every snake lover deserves at least one dramatic piece of snake-themed art hanging on their wall. Whether it’s a minimalist print, a vintage anatomical sketch, or something dripping with gothic style, snake art can really anchor a space. Works great in offices, bedrooms, or home terrariums (obviously).
13. Snake Coffee Mug
Snake mugs are surprisingly fierce. Some feature detailed illustrations, while others go full novelty with a tail-shaped handle or coiled base. Either way, it’s the kind of mug that says, “Yes, I’m a reptile person. And yes, I’m not a morning person.” Bonus: makes a solid desk gift or stocking stuffer.
14. Snake Candle Holder
Moody, bold, and a little bit witchy—in the best way. Snake candle holders are usually made of metal or resin and add instant drama to any shelf or dining table. Whether it’s a single coiled serpent or a pair of intertwined vipers, this is the kind of gift that turns “just candles” into a full aesthetic.
15. Snake Phone Case
If someone truly loves snakes, they might as well carry one around in their pocket—figuratively, of course. Snake phone cases come in bold prints, gothic designs, or minimalist snake outlines that still make a statement. It’s a fun, functional gift for anyone who wants a little hiss with their texts.
