Our history, our mission
Almost everyone had one….the first colourful playball. It has accompanied us in the playground, the garden, on the beach and in the schoolyard. It got us moving long before we knew what coordination or motor skills actually were. Our playballs are based on all these memories – robust, colourful and printed with children’s favourite characters and heroes – now as then.
Toys are more than just entertainment – they are inspiration and companions for life.
• High-quality materials
• Our playballs are made from carefully tested, durable materials - for safe playtime fun.
Innovative Designs
Creative ideas and licensed designs make every ball something special.
Made in Germany
John GmbH produces with precision and attention to detail in the Bavarian town of Freilassing..
Strong brands for strong products
Licence designs have become an integral part of the toy world. At John we bring children’s favourite characters to our products and thus ensure maximum attention at the point of sale. Our broad licence portfolio with top international brands is constantly adapted to current trends among children. Thanks to long-standing partnerships with well-known licensors and our experience in product development, we realise designs quickly, reliably and in line with the brand.
Fun in action
Laughter, movement and pure enthusiasm – that’s what John GmbH is all about. Our products inspire children to go on imaginative adventures and get them moving. Our toys simply let children be children – we focus on movement and imagination rather than technical stimuli.
