Gym mats are used for comfort and safety when kids are learning new skill in gymnastics, martial arts and other forms of exercise. They are usually made out of foam in order to deaden the impact of a kid's body with the ground, whether it happens while landing from the balancing beam or falling off parallel bars. They also provide a nonslip surface as an additional safety measure. Foams used in exercise mats for kids can range from very soft to firm, depending on what you need during their training. Firm mats work well to give protection while still providing a surface where a child can balance.
Pit Mat
The Pit Mat is designed by the company The Cartwheel Factory. It consists of a vinyl cover that can hold several layers of single pieced mats, depending on the thickness you need for the kids. The cover has wide and reinforced handles so you can move the stacked up mats inside easily. The top of the mat cover is opened by detaching Velcro strips on its sides and the sides have mesh covers that serve as breathers, so that air can be expelled each time a kid lands on the mats.
The Fitness Kids Exercise Mat
The Fitness Kids Exercise Mat sold by Kalyx is a thick yoga style mat made for kids, measuring 68 inches in length and 24 inches in width. It is made with soft latex, making it flexible enough to roll it up for storage. The mat has an antibacterial surface that helps keep germs off your child's feet, hands and face when she lies down on it for floor exercises. The Fitness Kids Exercise Mat has 12 drawings of exercises that your child can perform, printed on the mat's surface, making them easy and convenient to follow and learn for your kid. This mat is ideal for travel due to its lightweight and flexible material.
Interlocking Foam Mats
Interlocking Foam Mats for kids are a convenient way of creating a safe place for them to exercise in practically any room. Each foam square interlocks with others so you can make as big a space as your want and you can also make uneven shapes if the room you are dealing with does not have a perfectly square surface for you to install your exercise surface with the mats. The company Soft and Safe floors carries interlocking foam mats that are fire retardant, non-toxic, latex and lead free and are also stain and water proof as well as oil resistant to prevent your kids from slipping.
