Be it a kindergarten, preschool, crèche, day care center or Montessori; these centers of learning and fun have a very interesting and much-looked-forward-to break time known as the “naptime”. This specially allotted time is quite useful for toddlers, as it provides some happy moments of relaxation in the afternoon or after hectic playtime activities.
Comfortable, made from non-toxic materials, organic and affordable , napping mats are a ”must-have” on the list of centers dedicated to the cause of positive physical and mental growth of children. Quite akin to a gymnastic mat, a napmat can be spread out on the floor when the child is ready to sleep and provides those much needed moments of rejuvenation and relaxation.
In most cases, a day care nap mat is provided to each child by the parent and has to be ferried each day. Though the act proves to be cumbersome at some times, it is a better option than the preschool providing the same. Firstly, as children are prone to soiling their possessions, it becomes difficult for those involved with the centers to maintain the right hygiene levels and have their napmat cleaned on a regular basis. These products come along with washable covers and can be easily washed at home. Secondly, a child may be suffering from lice or other concerning skin conditions and is capable of passing on the germs to other children –if their mats are stacked alongside those of others. So, it is always good to look for a nap mat that is portable and can be transported without much fuss—on a daily basis.
In modern times, there is no dearth of ways in which you can get easy access to the mat of your choice. You may choose to purchase one online or walk through the racks of a local kid’s store and pick the one that best addresses your custom requirements. You may like to settle for a mat that comes without a pillow attached to the same or choose one that has the motifs of your child’s favorite cartoon character imprinted on its surface. While some can be washed easily by hand and do not fade and tear; others are too delicate and need a lot of care and maintenance. Along with good wash ability features, ideally search for a product that’s comfortable, portable and cost effective in nature. All these mats come equipped with a light cushioning and protect your child from the hard floor—choose accordingly.
Available in an exhaustive range of styles, designs, colors, patterns and shapes, these mats are the perfect gift for toddler’s looking forward to a nice gift to call their own in a preschool. Truly, something that smells of home and allows them to get spirited and comforted is always welcome—right?
