Display Basket and Tray

The Display Basket and Tray are designed with the "Enabling Environments" framework in mind. By moving away from plastic tubs toward natural materials, practitioners can create a more calming and sophisticated learning space. This specific basket features a unique "high-back" design; this allows resources to be propped up for better visibility while keeping them securely contained. Children can easily browse through the contents, much like a display in a shop, which encourages independent choice and self-regulation. The hand-woven wicker provides a tactile, organic feel that is durable enough for daily classroom use. Whether used to house loose parts, art supplies, or small-world characters, this basket helps to keep the environment organised while making the resources themselves look more appealing. It is a practical, budget-friendly way to elevate the presentation of your continuous provision and support children’s autonomy in the classroom.
