Physical space and products such as toys, furniture and other products in pre-
school institutions have a great influence on children's psychophysical develop-
ment. Events and experiences of using the product and environment during
early childhood strongly influence the formation of attitudes and behaviors of
a person in later life. In the pre-school period, great changes are taking place
in social interaction, in speech, in memory, in thinking, as in all other functions.
Today, many children are playing indoors, most occupied by video and com-
puter games and watching television, so the importance of using sensory toys,
games and playing in the open is becoming increasingly important. Unfortu-
nately, the availability of these products is poor, and if it exists, or is of non-eco-
logical material or overrated. The paper analyzes the present appearance of
space and the availability of products in kindergartens in the Republic of Croa-
tia and the Czech Republic.
Keywords: preschool environment, children’s health, play, didactic products,
