Children's clothes rack with rectangular drawers • Floki

With the Floki clothes rack, your children develop their independence every day. Thanks to its child-friendly height, they can see their entire wardrobe at a glance and easily choose, hang up, and put away their clothes. They can express themselves freely by creating original outfits, playing dress-up, or imitating grown-ups, much to our delight!

By getting dressed on their own, they refine their motor skills, discover textures, colors, and patterns, and learn to sort, coordinate, and put things away. The Floki clothes rack supports them in these learning experiences while adding a natural and elegant touch to the bedroom. The built-in drawers keep their favorite accessories or shoes within easy reach.

What is the educational value of this product?

Clothes racks, like other storage furniture, play an important role in children's development because they facilitate independence.

For Maria Montessori, they are one of the essential elements of the prepared environment in which children freely engage in their activities and “work.” They also support children during the sensitive periods of movement coordination, order, social behavior, and the refinement of the senses.

It will inspire imitation games, which are part of childhood and identity formation. Rudolf Steiner defined the first stage of childhood, from 0 to 7 years, as the stage of imitation - during which the child goes from being one with their mother to becoming a social and autonomous individual, and in which imaginative imitation plays a decisive role, alongside open-ended play. 

Through imitation play, children reproduce the behaviors they observe around them, progressing from simple imitation to the creation of complex scenarios and role-playing games in which they are no longer the main actor but the director.
 

Jean-Ovide Decroly considered imitation and play to be “anticipatory instincts,” essential maturation factors that give children a comprehensive understanding of reality. For Célestin Freinet, through imitation, just as through observation or reading, individuals appropriate the experiences of others, diversifying and accelerating their own personal experience.

But above all, children will learn to dress themselves and do things themselves, “for real,” learning from real things in the real world, as advocated by Charlotte Mason.
 

What is its value from a neuroscience perspective?

• Contributes to sensory-motor and cognitive development* (*Through the first hand movements used to grasp and then handle the doll, as well as the discovery of colors and textures.).
• Strengthens neural circuits through the repetition of movements and tasks.

What is sensory-motor development?

Sensory-motor development is the process through which children develop their senses and learn to perform, master, and coordinate their movements.

The senses include the best-known ones - sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch - as well as balance, through the vestibular system, and proprioception, which is the position of the body in space, provided by the somatosensory system. 

These different senses work together with one another and with the motor system.

In terms of motor development, two broad categories of motor skills can be distinguished:

• gross motor skills, which refer to movements of the entire body or the body's larger limbs and muscles (legs, arms, torso, head),
• fine motor skills, which refer to movements of smaller muscles and limbs (fingers, hands, wrists, feet, ankles, toes, lips, tongue).

What is the value of this product in summary? 

• Develop motor skills and executive functions.
• Practice everyday tasks.
• Cultivate a sense of order.
• Learn to become independent.
• Strengthen self-confidence.
