Turn any spot in the classroom into a cosy place to relax with these large-sized comfy cushions. Children and students can rest, lean or sit on these colourful pillows. Each comfy cushion has an inner insert filled with a supportive foam crumble. The outer cover is made from machine washable polyester and features a strong zip. These large comfy cushions are 75m square. In a kit of 4 in primary colours Red, Yellow, Blue and Green. These cushions will create a warm and authentic atmosphere in any environment. These large and soft cushions create a comfortable reading corner, a rest area or can also be used for small group play.

The insert is made from thick foam crumble. Each cushion insert has been vacuum packed. This simply means that the air has been removed from the packaging. When opening the vac-packed cushion insert please take care not to cut the pillow, and to cut along the side. Remove the insert and dispose of the packaging. Each insert will expand back to size and can take up to 30 hours. To speed up this process you can gently plump and agitate the insert to allow the foam to absorb air and expand again. These cushions are also a great way to help support social distancing and physical distancing in the classroom.

These cushions have been treated with an anti microbial product from Fresche Bioscience. This antimicrobial treatment scan kill up to 99.9% of odour causing bacteria. It can also help to prevent the formation of harmful biofilms, and helps to prevent infestation of dust mites. This new anti-microbial treatment also inhibits the growth of mould, mildew and fungus in these sheets. This treatment does wear away over time with washing, and so it does not last forever. This time will depend on how often the cushion covers are washed and how they are washed and dried.

Cushions and soft furnishings help to create warm and inviting spaces for play and learning, Using cushions and soft furnishings such as carpets, fabrics and canopies also help to reduce the noise level as they absorb sounds unlike hard surfaces which bounce sounds around a room. Using a variety of textures, fabrics, colours and materials helps to create an environment that is visually appealing and stimulating, but also calming. The learning environment should be comfortable and welcoming for children, parents and educators. Young children respond differently, based on the design, the types of resources, and the materials used in the environment. An effectively designed classroom has the potential to positively influence all areas of a child's development, including physical, social, emotional and cognitive. Soft furnishings are excellent when dividing up spaces and are perfect for use in quiet areas such as libraries, reading nooks and for making small spaces for children and students who require a calmer environment. They are very suitable for use in flexible learning environments. Offering children and students options for sitting other than a traditional chair.
