Embark on a new adventure with savannah themed toys

Listen. Can you hear the grass rustling in the wind? Or the trumpeting of an elephant? Forget all about kittens and dog strolls. You are in the world of roars and sprints now. A world where everyone has a strategy for survival, whether it’s running, hiding or hunting. In SANDLÖPARE, you will meet the smart and social meerkat, the fast and nimble cheetah and the tall and graceful giraffe. Find your favourite in this collection for children from 3 to 99 and combine them with already existing jungle animals from our range.

Enjoy exciting SANDLÖPARE activities in-store:

Join us to make a difference

For every soft toy sold between 27 November - 27 December 2025, IKEA Malaysia will donate RM1 to Teach For Malaysia, supporting education for children.

It's nice to give twice. You can also purchase any soft toy and drop it into the Donation Bin located after checkout, exit hall. All soft toys collected will be donated to the local children's hospital/community to bring comfort to children in need.

Let's spread joy, one soft toy at a time.

Cheetah spots on sheets and towels

In the wild, animals’ distinct patterns help them avoid being detected by predators. At home, it can be just as important to blend in with your surroundings and hide in plain sight. Taking a bath should leave your child spotless, but not when they’re drying off in this SANDLÖPARE hooded towel with a cheetah pattern.

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.

Swing like a chimpanzee

Chimpanzees easily swing from branch to branch. With opposable thumbs as well as toes, it’s almost as if they have four hands. The SANDLÖPARE soft toy chimpanzee has touch-and-close fastening on both hands and feet and can easily join your family’s adventures. Let it hang around your neck, on a bag or from the ceiling.

Bring home a herd of zebras

To zebras, black and white stripes on a beige background is considered camouflage. Lions are colourblind, which means that the colour is less important than the pattern that blends well into the savannah grass. And when the zebras stand together in a herd, it’s difficult for the lions to single one of them out to attack. Create your own herd of zebras. With soft padding in recycled polyester, the SANDLÖPARE zebra patterned stool covers are a great complement to the FLISAT and MAMMUT stools.
