Ideas Before You Buy Kids Floor Mats

Tips & considerations for purchasing Kids Floor Mats:

The following blogs offer tips on what aspects to look for in kids floor matting before making a purchase. Wherever you plan to use this flooring, these are all important things to learn before making your final decision.

Top 10 Questions About Kids Floor Mats

Below are the most popular questions we've received about floor mats for kids. Click the question to get a detailed answer and explanation on these topics.
  1. How Do You Clean EVA Foam Mats for Kids? Use a broom or vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dry debris from the surface of the foam floor layout. You then can use a mop to apply a floor cleaning solution to clean and sanitize the floor before allowing it to dry in the air over a few hours.
  2. What Are the Top Temporary Basement Flooring Options for Kids? When installing a temporary floor in a basement to create a kids’ play area, you may want to stick with puzzle-style tiles that pop together without needing to use glue. After playtime is over, you can disassemble the tiles and return them to storage when using these interlocking tiles.
  3. How Do You Soundproof a Kids’ Room? To reduce stray noise from the playroom penetrating the entire house, consider installing kids floor mats that have some sound reduction capabilities. Foam typically works best as noise reduction flooring for kids, and it also provides cushioning to protect against falls.
  4. What Are the Best Basement Playroom Flooring Features? When installing kids floor mats over a concrete basement subfloor, it’s important to look for mats that can provide some cushioning in case of falls. Thermal protection against the cold concrete subfloor is also helpful when kids will be sitting on the floor to play.
  5. What Are the Top Kids Floor Mats on a Budget? When trying to create a safe type of flooring for a kids’ playroom at a low price, you may want to consider EVA foam tiles. Inexpensive foam flooring is comfortable for kids to play on, providing cushioning, and it is available in many different colors that are fun for kids.
  6. What Are The Best Floor Ideas for Daycares and Preschools? Installing a safe type of floor at a daycare or preschool is easier than you may think. Consider foam tiles that provide cushioning against potential falls, while being easy to install and clean. PVC plastic and rubber can also work well as kids floor mats at a preschool.
  7. How Thick Should Interlocking Foam Mats Be for Kids? Thicker kids floor mats can provide an extra bit of cushioning for children, while thinner mats cost less and can be easier to install. Mats around 1/2 inches in thickness are inexpensive, while mats around 1-1/2 inches thick provide maximum protection against falls while playing.
  8. What Is the Best Soft Outdoor Patio Flooring for Kids? In a patio area that often consists of unforgiving concrete, finding kids floor mats that provide a safer space for children to play is a must. PVC plastic is a popular selection, as it stands up well to all kinds of weather, while providing more cushioning than some other options.
  9. What Are the Best Cheap Playground Tiles? When seeking a safer type of flooring to install at a playground to reduce injury possibilities when kids fall, consider rubber, foam, or PVC plastic tiles. These kids floor mats typically have a relatively low price, making them  easier to install when you have a strict budget.
  10. What Are the Best DIY Kids Floor Mats for a Bedroom? Children often will be sitting and laying on the floor of a bedroom to play, meaning having a soft type of flooring will provide a high level of comfort for the kids. Interlocking foam tiles and interlocking padded carpet tiles are the most popular selections for installing in a child’s bedroom.
