Baby Toys for Play and Early Exploration
Babies explore the world around them through sights, sounds, textures, shapes and movement. Different toys can offer simple opportunities for grasping, listening, touching, stacking and interacting during everyday play.
IKEA offers a variety of baby toys for different types of early play. As your child grows, you can also explore the wider children's toys collection for more ways to play, create and use their imagination.

Baby Rattles and Musical Toys
Toys that make gentle sounds can add another element to playtime. Rattles are easy for babies to notice and interact with, while musical toys combine sound, colour and movement for a different play experience.
Always check the recommended age and instructions provided with each toy before use.
Hanging Toys and Baby Play Mats
Hanging toys bring interesting shapes and colours into a baby's play area, while play mats provide a dedicated space for supervised floor play with parents or caregivers.
You can also explore other essentials for your little one's space in the IKEA baby collection.
Stacking and Activity Toys
As babies become more confident using their hands, stacking cups, stacking rings and other simple activity toys offer new ways to explore.
Depending on the toy and recommended age, children can grasp, move, stack, knock down or reposition pieces as part of play.
Baby Bath Toys
Bath time can also include playful moments. Bath toys with simple shapes and characters can add variety to a baby's bath routine.
Always follow the product instructions and make sure bath play takes place under adult supervision.
Soft and Sensory Toys
Soft toys introduce different textures for babies to touch and explore. Some are also easy to carry, making them practical companions for playtime at home or while travelling.
Choosing Baby Toys by Age and Development Stage
Not every toy is designed for every age. When choosing baby toys, use the recommended age on the product as your main guide and consider the activities your baby is beginning to enjoy.
Toys for Newborns and Early Months
During the early months, babies spend a lot of time observing sounds, colours, shapes and touch. Simple toys designed for this stage can be used during supervised interaction with parents and caregivers.
Toys for Babies Learning to Grasp
As babies begin using their hands more actively, toys designed for grasping, touching or simple interaction can introduce different play experiences.
Toys for Babies Becoming More Active
As movement and coordination develop, age-appropriate toys can offer opportunities for stacking, moving, pushing or exploring simple relationships between shapes and movement.
For more ideas as your child approaches their first year, read IKEA's guide to educational toys for 1-year-olds.
Always follow the age guidance and instructions on individual product pages, as recommendations differ from one toy to another.
What to Consider When Choosing Baby Toys
When selecting toys for your little one, look beyond colours and appearance. Consider:
- The recommended age for the toy.
- The size and components of the product.
- The type of activity and your baby's current abilities.
- Product instructions and available safety information.
- The condition of the toy before and after play.
- Care instructions for the specific material.
Cleaning methods can vary between fabric, plastic, wooden and mixed-material toys. Follow the care instructions provided with each product rather than using the same cleaning method for every toy.
