Non-slip children's playroom rug | Jungle and road design | Green color | 81 x 152 cm

At 152 cm long, this rug gives a toy car a proper road to drive down rather than a lap around a coffee table. The green jungle-and-city print maps out a small town — a shop, a hospital, a police station, a home — linked by toy car routes and set among natural scenery, so a child aged one to six can play out errands, journeys and rescues on a surface that stays put underfoot.

What it does for play

• Stays where you put it — a TPR backing is specified for stability on the floor, so the rug is far less inclined to slide when a child kneels, crawls or pushes off it.
• Non-slip stitched edges — the borders are stitched rather than raw, so the perimeter is finished rather than left to fray.
• Learning built into the print — shop, hospital, police station and home scenes give a child familiar everyday places to name, visit and invent stories around.
• Room to build a scene — 81 x 152 cm is long enough for a road layout with space left for bricks, figures and a child sitting alongside.
• Soft underfoot — the surface is a soft, safe material, made for the floor-level play that fills the first six years.
• Easy to move — at 900 g it lifts and shifts between rooms without help.

What a TPR backing is

TPR is thermoplastic rubber — a flexible, rubber-like layer used on the underside of mats and rugs. It is the grippier of the two surfaces in play here: rubber against tile or laminate holds better than woven fabric against the same floor, which is the whole point of specifying it on a rug a small child will kneel and push off. This rug is listed with a TPR backing and non-slip stitched edges; the merchant does not state a slip-resistance rating, so treat it as a non-slip design rather than a guarantee, and check it sits flat before play on very smooth or polished floors.

Size and colour

One size: 81 x 152 cm, in green with a jungle and city design. Its shape suits a play corner, though nothing stops it living wherever your child plays.

Care

No manufacturer care instructions were supplied for this rug, so treat it gently: lift spills straight away, spot-clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then let it dry completely flat before it goes back down. Keep it away from direct heat and tumble dryers, as rubber backings dislike high temperatures. If in doubt, test any cleaner on a small corner first.
