The Importance of Play

Laura White - Eden Children's Resources Specialist

A recent report from the Real Play Coalition, backed by IKEA, has brought to light something both simple and powerful: 92% of children wish they could play more.

In a world that often prioritises screens, structure, and schoolwork, this research reminds us of the vital role play has in a child’s development. Play isn’t just a way to pass the time, but it also, supports creativity, builds resilience, and strengthens relationships. When children play, they learn about the world, about others, and about themselves.

At Eden, we believe play is a God-given gift that helps children grow in faith and joy. That’s why we’ve curated a collection of toys that not only entertain but also inspire and nurture Christian values.

📦 Explore our full range of toys here.

Let’s help our children do what they long to do: play more.
