Dearest teacher-friends, I'm stuck! My classroom has tile flooring & so I like to have soft-welcoming areas about the room for gathers/floor-work/reading/etc. I have tried carpet remnants (which are very hard to keep clean in a busy classroom), cheap area rugs (which have backing that breaks down & creates sand all over the room), foam mats (which wear quickly & always look dirty- unless you wash them daily --which resulted on a mold situation as they were not drying out enough), ugg! Frustrated. Every b2s I end up making a new purchase. What do y'all use?!? I feel like I've seen/tried it all & I would love some feedback on what you think works best & how you keep them clean! Your thoughts/pictures are needed (use #classroomgatheringspace)
