Toys & play

Find the meerkats!

Meerkats never seem to be still and they are always on the lookout for danger. The dark patches around their eyes act as natural sunglasses and if a predator approaches, they sound an alarm to warn the others to hide in burrows underground. A meerkat clan can have up to 50 members. How many can you see here? Bring home your own SANDLÖPARE soft toy meerkat or get a mini meerkat mascot.

    Unleashing creativity with playful toys

    Discover the joy and benefits of choosing the right playthings for your little ones, mixing personal development with pure fun!

    Why are toys essential for child development?

    Toys are the building blocks of your child's future. Engaging with toys sparks creativity and imagination, paving the way for cognitive and social skills. For toddlers, toys are more than mere amusement—they are tools that help them understand the world. Toddler toys designed for this age group focus on fine motor skill development and sensory exploration. Bright colours, interesting textures, and sounds stimulate their senses, while building blocks challenge their problem-solving skills. 

    What should I look for in children's toys?

    When selecting children's toys, consider their educational value and how they align with your child's interests. Toys should be age-appropriate, safe, and durable. For younger children, look for toys that encourage interaction and physical play. As children grow, their toys should evolve with them. Older children benefit from more complex toys, such as various games or building blocks that foster creativity, strategic thinking and cooperation.  

    The power of play: encouraging lifelong learning

    Toys are a child's first introduction to learning through play. They offer a unique opportunity to develop essential life skills in a safe and controlled environment. By role-playing with plushies or similar toys, children learn empathy and social roles. Colouring books and building blocks allow them to express themselves and develop their artistic talents. The key is to provide a variety of toys that cater to different developmental stages and learning styles.
     
    Choosing the right toys for your children is a delightful journey. Remember that the best toy is one that matches your child's developmental needs and unleashes their potential.
