What sensory floor mats are
Sensory floor mats provide varied input through texture, movement, and balance. The large tiles feature different patterns that can be explored with hands or feet, enabling activities focused on tactile discrimination, movement, balance, and coordination. Unlike standard foam mats, these are designed specifically to deliver varied sensory input via distinct textures.
Textures included
- Dots.
- Transverse lines.
- Interlocking circles.
- Grass-like textures.
Applications and benefits
- Tactile discrimination via hands or feet.
- Balance and coordination exercises during walking, standing, and transition tasks.
- Hand–foot matching and sensory identification activities.
- Activities that integrate sensory input with movement and attention.
Example activities
- Arrange the five tiles as a path and have the child walk across them.
- Identify a requested texture using the foot.
- Match textures using the small discs to the corresponding large tile.
- Transition between tiles, stand briefly, and maintain balance.
- Hide small discs within the activity area and ask the child to find and match them.
- Hand–foot matching: match the texture felt underfoot with a disc in hand.
Use guidance and safety
- Place tiles on a level floor and space them according to the activity.
- Start with a single tile or a simple path, then add pieces gradually.
- Incorporate the small discs for matching and identification tasks.
- Adjust activity difficulty by age, abilities, and session goals.
- Supervise children during balance and walking activities.
