Nature View Reading Haven & Floor Mat Set | Classroom Play House with Built-In Book Shelves
*Ships via truck in 4-6 weeks.
Winner of the 2020 Teachers’ Choice Award for Preschool, the Nature Reading Haven and Floor Mat Set brings the restorative qualities of nature into early learning environments through biophilic design. This beautifully crafted quiet space invites children to relax, read, or recharge beneath a stunning curved shatterproof acrylic roof imprinted with the realistic image of a spreading tree canopy. The uplifting design encourages calm, focused behavior while ensuring full visibility for adult supervision.
Inside, children will find a cozy, durable floor pad that provides comfort during reading and quiet play. One interior side panel features two built-in book display shelves, making it easy to showcase favorite stories and rotate seasonal or thematic titles. The opposite panel includes viewing cutouts that add visual interest and allow natural light to filter through the space.
Each end panel includes a tunnel-style opening, giving children multiple entry points and promoting safe movement and exploration. These openings also ensure maximum visibility of children inside—a key feature for classroom supervision.
This reading haven coordinates seamlessly with every piece in the award-winning, biophilia-inspired Nature View Collection (each sold separately here), making it a natural centerpiece for a calming, nature-connected learning environment. Perfect for early learning classrooms seeking a designated quiet space that children will love returning to again and again.
