bObles - Danish design

the bObles way

bObles was created with the ambition to increase children’s quality of life by designing furniture that encourages movement. We design beautiful, functional, and stimulating furniture in shapes that contribute to children’s motor skill development. We call them tumbling furniture.

We believe that children benefit from moving around and using their bodies as much as possible. By rolling, crawling, walking, jumping, and balancing they gain a happy body. And with body awareness, children have an easier time learning, they function better socially, and they feel more confident.

The story of bObles began in 2006, when Bolette Blædel, architect by profession, went on maternity leave with her first-born child. To her disappointment she found that children’s furniture was inadequate and uninspiring for her son, as most were merely miniatures of adult furniture. Together with her sister, Louise, designer by profession, an idea began to flourish: What if Bolette and Louise could create children’s furniture that would indulge children’s imagination through play while developing children’s motor skills? The idea of the Tumbling furniture and bObles was born. Multifunctional and simple geometrical forms -cut in the shape of animals - setting the spirit and the body of the childfree! Today, the vision is the same; to build furniture for children, that encourage them to play, learn and develop, while at the same time designing furniture with a beautiful danish design for a modern-day family.

Chicken

Every child should have a bObles Chicken! It will without a doubt be your most trusted companion throughout your maternity and paternity leave, as it works wonders when your baby is practicing laying on its stomach, strengthening the neck and back.

Donuts

Who does not love jumping? We believe every child and childlike souls should own a bObles Donut simply because jumping sparks joy in everyone.

bObles Donut comes in three sizes, one for every family member. But just because you are big, does not necessarily mean that you should have the bigger Donut. Mom and dad will guaranteed love the movement and concentration that comes with sitting on Donut small on top of a chair. Just as the small baby will smile with joy when strengthening the neck and back on Donut medium.

Turn Donut sideways and have a blast as both toddlers, children and adults jump around the living room. The jumping sensation is a lot of fun for your baby when sitting on Donut while mom and dad hold on tight. If you put your hands on bObles Donut and give it a little tap, your baby can feel the fun vibrations sparking excitement and curiosity. If Donut is pushed down into the floor it creates a vacuum and Donut will stick to the ground. If you have more than one you can make them stick together on top of each other.

The swing part has gotten bigger in order to give even more stability.

Remove the foam plug from the Donut by pushing it out and replace it with the swing. Hang the Donut swing from a tree or a hook in the ceiling and adjust the length of the rope to fit the child. Let the child swing across the room and touch the sky.

The whole body is being stimulated on Donut swing and you are guaranteed hours of fun and play. The small and medium size Donut fits the bObles Donut swing
