Nature is all around us although you do expect to be closer to it when you are outside. We have a superb range of nature carpets for indoors to thrill and inspire children, whether they are enjoying some quiet time in the reading corner or sitting listening to story time.
Classrooms used to house the very basic essentials needed to teach children. Today, they are warm, visually engaging and bright places for study and our nature carpets are no exception. This range of nature carpets brings the outdoors into the classroom with beautifully chosen scenes from nature.
We have a range of nature carpets which have highly realistic imagery featuring pebbles, grass, logs, sand, frost and even leaves. Each of these play mats are ideal for helping to create imaginative areas for children and can be used to help spark discussions on nature and the world in which we live. In addition, they provide useful additional items for role play as children imagine themselves sitting on a beach, or rustling through the leaves on a crisp autumnal day.
Or you can choose from our delightful range of flowers, fruit, sea shells or even dinosaur fossil play mats. The flower play mats are stunning in their detail and are a wonderfully calming way of bringing nature and a splash of colour to the classroom. There are four different designs in the range including an orange chrysanthemum, blue poppy, yellow daffodil and red rose. They can help create a themed room or be used for teaching about flowers and nature.
The sea shell range is as visually striking as the flowers. They bring a touch of the seaside to any classroom or nursery environment and are huge fun, allowing the children to pretend they are on the beach, building sandcastles and collecting sea shells.
Also within this range are a set of four fruit mats which feature an apple, orange, lemon and strawberry. These can be used in the theme corner but also used to engage children in an innovative and unusual way about healthy eating. Completing this particular range of nature play mats is the set of dinosaur fossil play mats. Featuring a T-Rex, the Archaeopteryx (a type of bird), the Diplodocus (the longest land animal) and Triceratops. They can release the young archaeologist lurking in your classroom. All of the flowers, sea shells, fruit and fossil play mats are 88 cm diameter so they are a perfect size for placing almost anywhere within the classroom or nursery.
Completing the range of nature carpets are our play mats which feature a palm tree, beach, waterfall or lagoon. As well as being beautiful play mats in their own right they can also be used as part of our reading corners. Together with the complimentary other products such as the pebble reading pouffes or sea shell pouffes they combine to make a simply amazing reading corner the children will love stepping into time and again.
Whichever nature carpet you choose, it is bound to add a wonderfully imaginative and creative atmosphere to any classroom or nursery setting.
