Black & White Deep Spot Felt Mats - Set of 2

Why did the black and white mats start a band? Because they knew how to make a pattern of hits!

Our Black and White Deep Spot Felt Mats are here to turn your sensory play into a visual symphony! This 2-mat set includes a white mat with a black spiralling pattern and a black mat with bold white spots. These mats offer an exciting tactile experience, whether you're using them for sensory investigation, loose parts play, or early maths activities.

The high-contrast design is not just visually striking; it also encourages visual tracking and focus, helping young learners develop those essential cognitive and sensory skills. Whether your learners are simply exploring the texture, these mats provide endless opportunities for hands-on learning.

Pair them with our Black and White Sensory Balls or Nesting Baskets to create an immersive sensory experience, or use them with our Deep Spot Trays for extra versatility. They also work beautifully as standalone resources in any area of your learning space.

Made from soft yet durable felt, these mats are perfect for EYFS and primary settings, helping to foster independent learning and creativity. Plus, who wouldn't love adding a bit of pattern to their play?
