ECR4Kids Everyday Folding Rest Time Mat, 4-Section, 1in, Sleeping Pad, Blue/Grey, 5-Pack

Everyday Folding Rest Mats are the perfect place for little ones to rest and relax when nap time happens away from home. Daily routines can offer the sense of security and consistency for little ones, creating an environment of relaxation that helps to release the tension of the day. The transition to nap time teaches children self-esteem and independence as they carry out these familiar routines and take a break from the day’s activities. Children can get their own bedding and place it on their mat. Sleep plays an important role in childhood brain development and children nap best when they have their own space to fall asleep. For those that don’t sleep, quiet time helps children refresh for more focused learning. Children who don’t sleep also become skilled at being respectful of those who need quiet time. When naptime is over, simply fold mats in four for compact storage. The accordion style folding design keeps the "sleep side" separate from the "floor side". Designed for everyday use in daycares, preschools, and early learning environments. Pair classroom nap mats with ECR4Kids Rest Time accessories including sheets, blankets, and Nap Mat Companions with pillows, sold separately.
