“Studies have shown that movement enhances the mental well-being and is positive for certain cognitive functions. Furthermore, the amount of physical activity we get as children also affects our habits and health later in life. So, what is the right amount of movement? The UN’s World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that children between ages 5 and 17 should do at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each day. In addition, a couple of times a week, it’s good to do more high-intensity training that increases the heart rate for a longer period of time.

Best Dog ToySarahMy pup loves this plush soccer ball. Perfect for play in the house.
Quality changed LauraI would have liked this if I didn’t know what it was before. I’ve purchased a few of these balls over the years and they were always so soft and cute and colorful and comfortable. The new black-and-white one is made from a cheaper fabric, definitely not as nice

Great for indoor useLowellOur grandson loves to kick and throw the soccer ball because it will not break anything in his house.
Great but wish more colorsMaschaI did like the green balls before the white balls came. The white balls seems to be less long lasting. The only toy our dog loves and drags everywhere.
Great toy for my dogJacquelineSome years back I bought the IKEA soccer ball as a toy for my dog. It wore out and I didn't bother replacing it immediately. But from the enjoyment my dog is getting out of this new ball, I won't make that mistake again.

Is it possible to make plastic hug-friendly?
We want to reduce the amount of new material in our soft toys. Using recycled polyester as filling, and thereby giving new life to used plastic, is one way. That’s why we have embarked on an exciting journey with our new range of soft toys. Our goal is to fill as many soft toys as possible with recycled polyester – without compromising on safety or quality.
Story
Pep for more movement
At Children’s IKEA, we want to inspire to an active everyday – with more room for jumping, running, fun and games. Because the fact is, studies show that physical activity both plays a big role in children’s well-being and is an investment in the future.
Maria Ekblom, Associate Professor at Swedish School of Sports and Health Sciences, researches how physical activity affects children. “We know for sure that the right amount of movement has a positive effect on children’s physical condition, muscle strength, cardiovascular health as well as blood pressure and blood sugar.”
The whole body likes to move
Find the pulse in the everyday life
Maria has tips on how to find the time and energy for regular exercise in everyday life. “If it’s possible, walking or riding a bike to and from school is a great opportunity for everyday exercise. Just like meeting friends and playing outside in a safe environment.” Younger children often have a natural appetite for physical activity, but they might need some encouragement to get going when they get older, says Maria. “I think it’s important to give children the opportunity to do sports or other activities that are age-appropriate and match their interests. Then, if they really like what they’re doing, it’s easier to make it a good habit that lasts.”
Quality
Sure, they’re cute but are they safe? Absolutely!
You can rest assured knowing that all our children’s products live up to the highest health and safety standards. We put our toys to the test – up against the toughest in the world (much tougher than any two-year-old). All so you can worry less and they can play more.
