How to play with him

Children's floor play products, like interesting books, are filled with various plots. Based on these storylines, the little director builds his original script for the game. And his parents can help him in this.

For example, there is such a children's play mat on sale called "Traffic". It contains a part of the city with its own infrastructure: roads, sports grounds, parking lots, buildings and other remarkable objects. Using this set, you can come up with different options for games. For example, playing a taxi driver or a late passerby.

If your little one is more interested in nature, then you can purchase another version of the carpet, on which, in addition to urban developments, there is also a suburb with its own villages and even an airport. The child can choose himself who he is: the mayor of the town or an ordinary taxi driver who brings everyone to the desired point in the city.

Another option for this kind of game is the creation of buildings. On some variants of rugs, not only road infrastructure is drawn, but also some buildings in the form of houses with land plots, which may contain pools, fountains and some vegetation. Your child will have to create his own suburban house with its small courtyard and buildings on it.

Kinds

Consider some of the varieties of these fascinating children's carpets.

Puzzle carpet. As you may have guessed, it consists of several small parts, rugs, which, when combined, form a solid carpet. Such a puzzle can be assembled in different ways, so that every time the kid will receive an interesting version for the game. This variation of the developmental coating can with dignity become an element of the decor of a children's room.

Particularly original idea is the letters and numbers printed on the puzzle, with the help of which the child can learn the alphabet and arithmetic in a playful way. In addition, it is mobile: in which case you can disassemble it and take it with you to nature or a summer cottage.

For school-age children, the developers have also come up with interesting variations of such carpets. Particularly popular options are a geographic map and maps of the capitals of the countries of the world, and kids will really like puzzles with characters from cartoons and fairy tales.

An additional plus of using such a puzzle carpet: prevention of flat feet in a child. The fact is that some developers use an orthopedic surface in the basis of the floor covering. Thus, they took care not only of the mental development of the child, but also of his health.

Three-dimensional or 3D carpets. The production of such wonderful products is achieved by combining pile and lint-free surfaces. Mini-islands in the form of convex multi-colored pile of different heights are formed on the gaming platform. They imitate vegetation, houses, furniture and many other elements of the play material, and the lint-free surface can be a road or a parking lot.
Children's carpet with road markings and signs. No less interesting option for a children's play carpet is a floor covering with roads and road signs. Here, the kid is completely left to himself: he can both give a lift to various inhabitants of the mini-town, and arrange races in cars.

By the way, some cognitive carpets are available in a set with various accessories. For example, a play mat from the company Dickie Toys. In addition to an interesting playing field, it also contains a machine with an unusual design, which will definitely please your kid.

Popular models

One of the most famous manufacturers of children's play mats with roads is IKEA company. Below we have presented two models of children's flooring from this manufacturer.

Model "Lillabu" equipped with a latex base, so the mat remains in place during the baby's play.

The playing surface of the product is endowed with many roads and junctions, and there is also a racing track. With the help of their parents, the kid will be able to build a real city, placing everything that is needed for this on the playing field: residents, houses, trees and much more. All this can be done using the constructor.

A richer version of the playing space is the model "Lekplats"... A country road with all its inherent infrastructure is already appearing here. The distinctive landscapes depicted on the carpet will help the child not only get to know the world around him, but also take part in the lives of the many residents of the town.

Another game model that I would like to talk about is "City Map" from the Chinese manufacturer Lee Chuyn. This flooring consists of as many as 81 parts! There are all the most important buildings here: a hospital, a school, a shop, a park, a playground. By adding toy cars and residents, the kid will be able to manage a full-fledged city. Thanks to such an interesting play option, the child will be able to independently come up with various plots for his games.

Of the positive qualities of this coating, it is worth noting its extraordinary softness, water resistance and resistance to dirt. It is mobile - you can just take it outside or to the country house.

By the way, this version of the rug can be combined with a similar one and thereby increase the playing space, which is highly appreciated by Russian buyers.

Tips for choosing

Below we have prepared interesting tips that can prompt you to purchase a certain model of a play carpet with roads for your child:

Due to the variety of colorings of the product, you can choose exactly that version of the rug for the child, which would become a decoration of the interior of the room.
Ask your child which version of the cognitive rug he would like to receive as a gift. The best option would be to browse the various flooring variations on the Internet with him. You will be able to decide on the purchase from photos or videos.
Ask the seller for a product certificate. The material must be environmentally friendly.
Avoid products with an adhesive base.
Inquire about the composition of carpet materials and their properties.
Read reviews on the Internet for each floor surface option you are interested in.
The older the child, the larger the rug is required for him. Indeed, to attract a student, it is necessary that the product be bright and large-scale.
The rug can only be used by a child over one year old.
When buying a product, pay attention to ease of care. The carpet should be moisture resistant and easy to clean.
The best option for a boys' play mat is a freeway mat, and for girls, a home or landscape themed play area is perfect. After all, boys from an early age are drawn to technology, and girls - to everything beautiful and homely.
It must be remembered that a child who has reached the age of 4 is already beginning to compare the world around him and the world of toys and look for similar moments in them. Therefore, it is important that the playing surface is as realistic as possible. Thus, the child will perceive the game as something more and similar to the real world.
