What is this called? Colorful rubber/foam squares that fit together into a rug/mat?

Posted on September 29, 2009 by admin

I need them, but I don’t know what they’re called, so I can’t find them! I’ll try to explain what they look like.

Square, about 2ft by 2ft.
Colorful, sometimes with pictures or ABCs or something like that.
Edges are like this: _I¯I_I¯I_I¯I_I¯I_ so they can fit together.
Made of rubber or foam-like substance.
You use them to make a rug/mat on the floor.
Sometimes used in kindergarten classrooms.

Where would be a good place to buy them?

Actually, Home Depot stopped caryying these about 2 years ago. Try Lowes.. They usually just call them Children’s Flooring.

    You can go to http://www.allmats.com

    That’s where I bought an "ABC" one for a play room I decorated.

    Lowes, Home Depot, Walmart, lots of places sell them. Usually come in a pack with various colors of mats.
