Cocon velvet play mat - Raspberry

This foam mat protects our children from falls, provides flexible support for their physical activities, and offers comfort during their time spent on the floor.

Because we can’t rule out a spilled glass, a snack leaving stains, or a diaper accident, its removable cover is easy to clean in the washing machine.

What are the educational benefits of this product?

As part of free play, recommended by all active educational approaches, the motor-skills mat is an essential aid for providing a sense of security, particularly for younger children.

It can support children as they learn about their bodies and master their movements. In the Pikler-Lóczy approach, particularly between 0 and 3 years of age, children are allowed to act without adults intervening in their postures; they initiate their own movements. This is the principle of free movement.

This mat can also be used to define areas within a prepared environment, as in the Montessori method. It is also an ideal support during the sensitive period for the coordination of movements identified by Maria Montessori, which children experience from approximately 18 months to 4 years of age. 

 

What are the benefits from a neuroscience perspective?

• Contribution to sensorimotor development* (*By supporting all their physical activities).
• Strengthening neural pathways through the repetition of movements.

What is sensorimotor development?

Sensorimotor 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, namely sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, as well as balance (through the vestibular system) and proprioception (awareness of the body's position in space, provided by the somatosensory system). 

These different senses work together and in conjunction with the motor system.

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

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

What age ranges is it suitable for?

The play mat can be used from birth to support your child as they develop their motor skills and independence. The motor-skills mat can be used throughout their childhood.

What are the product's key benefits, in summary? 

• Develop motor skills.
• Learn to be independent.
• Build self-confidence.
