IGLU Safety and Comfort 5 Mat Set
Lay, Roll & Explore with the IGLU Safety and Comfort 5 Mat Set – Five-Piece Cushioned Soft Play Mat Set for Tummy Time, Active Play & Motor Development
Description
Five cushioned foam soft play mats that turn any floor into a safe, comfortable space for active exploration across North America. The IGLU Safety & Comfort 5 Mat Set is designed to protect little ones during play while supporting the full range of early movement - from first tummy time sessions and learning to crawl, to active play, reading corners, and naptime. Whether it lives in a home nursery, a sensory room, a daycare, or a paediatric therapy space, this set earns its place by simply being there every day.
What Makes the IGLU Mat Set Different from Generic Foam Mats
The foam matters. IGLU produces their mats from firm, 100% recyclable high-quality (HQ) foam with a closed-cell structure - that means it holds its shape under regular use and resists moisture absorption. The surface is covered in tough artificial eco-leather that wipes clean with a damp cloth or wet wipe. Five mats arrive in one box, weighing 14.33 lbs total, with a combined footprint of 100"L x 50"D x 30"H when stacked. Each mat is lightweight and stackable so children can help arrange them, and the set packs down neatly for storage under beds or shelves.
These mats are CE marked according to the EU Directive of Toy Safety - an independent certification that matters for parents and OTs who prioritise verified, substance-tested materials around young children. Colours may vary slightly from photos, and mixing the Multi-Colour and Light Pastel variants creates a visually stimulating, sensory-rich arrangement.
Key Features of the IGLU Safety & Comfort 5 Mat Set
- 100% Recyclable HQ Foam with Closed-Cell Structure - Dense yet feather-light foam that holds its shape over years of daily use, unlike standard polyurethane foam that compresses and loses support after regular play
- Tough Artificial Eco-Leather Cover - Robust, pleasant to the touch, and wipe-clean with a damp cloth or wet wipe, making hygiene practical for early crawlers, toddlers, and therapy settings alike
- CE Marked - EU Toy Safety Directive Certified - Independently tested and certified for harmful substances so caregivers can place these mats with confidence in nursery, home, and clinical environments across Canada and the US
- 5 Individual Mats in One Set - Versatile, rearrangeable layout supports active play, tummy time, quiet rest, reading, and crawling practice - use all five together or spread across a room
- Lightweight and Stackable Design - Each mat is easy for children to move and arrange independently, and the full set stores compactly with no dedicated floor space required
- Made in Europe - In-House Production - Every mat is hand-sewn and produced at IGLU's own Northern Europe facility, not outsourced, supporting consistent quality and craftsmanship
- Wipe-Clean Surface - Cleans in seconds with a wet wipe or damp cloth; no removable covers to wash or dry, keeping daily maintenance simple for busy families and care settings
- Colour Mix Options - Available in Multi-Colour and Light Pastel; mixing both variants creates additional visual and tactile variety, supporting sensory stimulation during play
Why Early Movement Matters - and How a Padded Surface Helps
Floor time is foundational. Paediatric physiotherapist Tanya Barrett, owner of Just 4 Kids in Canada and a regular IGLU product user in her practice, notes that this style of soft play equipment is "a fun way to promote gross motor skills and strengthen different muscle groups." A cushioned surface reduces the physical barriers to getting down on the floor, making tummy time, rolling, and crawling practice more comfortable and longer-lasting for both child and caregiver.
For children with sensory sensitivities or those working on proprioceptive awareness, a firm but yielding surface provides the kind of grounded, predictable feedback that supports regulated movement. These mats are not therapy tools on their own - but they create the kind of environment where therapeutic and developmental activities can happen with less friction.
Skills Your Child Develops Through Daily Play on the IGLU Mat Set
- Gross Motor & Physical Development - Moving across, rolling onto, and pushing up from a cushioned surface builds the core strength, balance, and coordination that support early physical milestones
- Tactile Exploration - The smooth, firm eco-leather surface gives young children a consistent tactile reference point, supporting sensory discrimination as they move and explore
- Independent Play - A defined, comfortable play space supports children in initiating and sustaining self-directed play, building confidence and focus in a low-risk environment
- Mathematical & Spatial Awareness - Arranging the five mats into different configurations introduces early spatial thinking as children experiment with layout, fit, and shape
Ideal for Families, Educators, OTs, and Paediatric Clinics Across Canada & the US
Home nurseries, playrooms, calm corners, sensory rooms, early years classrooms, occupational therapy clinics, paediatric physiotherapy practices, childcare centres, and any space that benefits from a padded, safe floor surface. Suitable from infant crawling age through early childhood and beyond. The set supports neurotypical and neurodiverse children equally - the firm cushioning and wipe-clean surface are practical wins for every setting.
