What makes your sensory play mats special?
Our sensory play mats aren't just colourful, fun mats for your child to play on, they also help boost their development. Expertly designed by our founders Anthony and Marketa, along with an orthopaedic specialist, our mats promote the healthy development of the joints and muscles and can even boost cognitive function too.
They are an amazing tool for encouraging creative play, parent-child interaction and sensory stimulation – three things that are vital for any growing child.
Why is sensory play and barefoot stimulation so important?
Before we all lived in concrete town and cities, our children explored all sorts of natural surfaces, from grass and pebbly rivers to woodland. Often they explored these terrains in bare feet.
This stimulation of the feet – which are as sensitive as our hands – was a vital part of human development and naturally prevented the onset of foot conditions like flat feet and bowed legs by challenging and strengthening the muscles, improving balance and posture and promoted the development of healthy joints.
This is what we emulate with our sensory play mats. With fun, colourful designs, we replicate the textures found in nature to allow your child to develop healthily.
What does the science say?
The benefits of barefoot walking and stimulation is becoming increasingly popular with many people opting to wear minimalist shoes that help them reconnect with the ground. Research has found it helps improve balance, core strength and coordination.
This is why sensory mats are a common tool used in medical centres across the world. Physiotherapists, chiropractors and occupational therapists all use sensory mats to treat injuries and other health conditions.
We enlisted the help of orthopaedic experts, physiotherapists and sports therapists to design our range of play mat tiles to ensure your child gets the therapeutic benefits of sensory play mats in your own home.
