Modern research places increasing emphasis on the importance of designing effective and innovative environments for integrated learning, emphasizing that the space in which children spend their time should be made as functional and multifaceted as possible. This research had two aims. The first was to identify the differences between the contemporary spatial environment and the contemporary spatial environment stimulated by movement. Secondly, it aimed at identifying differences in the level of physical activity between children in the control group who spent their time in the contemporary spatial environment and children in the experimental group who did the same, but in the contemporary spatial environment stimulated by movement. Two newly built kindergartens with contemporary outdoor and indoor facilities in the City of Rijeka participated in the study. In each of these kindergartens, a mixed nursery group was included in the study. Qualitative variables were coded based on the spaces in which children resided daily, namely the living room, hall, hall and open (outdoor) space. Quantitative variables were formed based on the Omron HJ-720IT-E2 pedometer. The results indicate a significant difference (p = 0.00) in favor of the contemporary spatial environment that supports movement. The children in the experimental group are statistically significantly more physically active, moving on average up to five times more than the children in the control group, at an intensity level that ensures a significant health effect. Such a modern spatial environment that stimulates movement is appropriate for every child and his or her potential because it homogenizes children equally at the level of physical activity and there are almost no differences between the children of the experimental group in the results of physical activity levels. This research is extremely important for the direct work of educators and the educational process. The foundations have been laid out from which criteria can be developed for a new approach to space organization and movement-driven integrated learning. It is a contemporary approach that is proven to give more motivation to children’s physical activity, thus enabling their full development and integrated learning. It is applicable in all areas of an early childhood institution and has a significant health effect.
