Basically hyper-detailed area rugs, 3-D kids play rugs depict different scenes — farm landscapes, city blocks, houses — with props like furniture, greenery, or road dividers woven, or “built,” into the rug. Kids can use the 3-D carpets to act out whatever scenes they can dream up, much like they would with a dollhouse, race track, or toy barn, but without the need for so much stuff. Since 3-D rugs feature lots of texture, they also provide quality sensory play. And since they look decent — especially the beautiful ones made by Ivi — they can just stay on the floor, and actually improve the look of the room while serving as both low-key inspiration for kids and easy-access toy. Whether your kid is into action figures or toy tractors, farms or mid-century mansions, there’s a 3-D carpet for them.
