Our four pillars

Encouraging play together

Playing together is more fun than playing alone. Joy'n Play invites children to play together. The game encourages social interaction and motor skills tailored to each child.

Each child is unique

With Joy'n Play, each child may and can develop playfully in their own way and at their own pace. We designed it together with children and supervisors.

Creativity as an asset

Joy'n Play stimulates imagination. It is expandable with other play plates that can maximize children's abilities. Maybe you will invent a new Joy'n Play play plate for your child? Will you share your play in our community? That way we'll create even more playtime fun together.

Sustainable and social

Joy'n Play was developed in Belgium and manufactured in Europe. Joy'n Play is assembled in custom-made companies and creates meaningful work for people with fewer opportunities in the labor market. We are proud of that too.

discover the different
game options

Depending on the situation and participants, there are many varied game options.

Encouraging movement

Put some colored balls in the shell and give the participant a task for each game. Eg. Make all the balls spin around, Try to get the red ball out of the shell by moving. Catch the magnetic ball with the stick. Variant: Give all children a different assignment.

Creative with paint.

Creative with paint

Place paper inside the shell as a support. Have one child hold a brush while the other moves the shell. Variation: dip marbles in paint, place them in the shell and move on them.

Combination Game

The ergonomic stick allows children with and without (physical) limitations play together around the shell. Give the players (with and without the stick) a different task, that way the game remains challenging for all parties.

Hand-eye coordination

Practice on hand-eye coordination with the labyrinth game. Mount the soccer players on the game board, place a ball in the shell and let participants practice by giving different commands. Eg Take turns each making a goal, slalom around the blue players,....

Making music / sound

Place balls or other things that make sound in the shell and let users move with the shell. TIP start with "quiet" materials such as rice, sand,... and evolve to louder objects.

Experiment

The shell can serve as a "container" for different materials. Fill the shell with water, sand or other tactile materials to experiment. The shell is designed so that it can be used outdoors and is easy to clean.

Educational aspect

Use the castle game plate to learn to count together. Have the children put the number of knights on the plate as they playfully count the little guys. Variant: Learning words

Fantasy game

Provide a themed floor plan and attach it to the plate. You can print this out, have them draw it themselves or use the current scene from the plate. Let children play a fantasy game by adding dolls or other elements.E.g. race track, knight/princess story,.... TIP You can use existing lego or playmobil.

Be creative!

Let your creative brain run wild and discover for yourself how endless the play possibilities are with Joy'n Play.

" Influencing themselves
the course of the game ."

Super how Joy'n play meets the need of children with disabilities to have control and influence over the course of the game themselves!

This is something that does not come naturally to them.

" He spontaneously sits down among the other children."

Some prototypes of the Joy'n Play were tested in our classroom and they were very well received. Bas is a boy who has a very difficult time playing together. He usually limits playing together to one friend. It gave me immense pleasure to see him spontaneously sitting around the shell among the other children.

"Super how many game options
Joy'n play offers"

How quickly you transform a sandbox into a playing field or a race track ... impressive. Especially when half an hour after it became a crib for the dolls.

Infinite possibilities that we are still discovering each time.
