These elegant, ultradurable cots add a warm and fuzzy feel to rest time. Educators worldwide recognize a well constructed cot as the ideal sleep surface in a child care program. A dedicated space can help children better self-regulate and manage their emotions, especially when they are tired.
By elevating children slightly above the floor, the child enjoys their own sense of space, with some personal space around them. They feel a sense of privacy and security, which is crucial for relaxation during rest time; whereas placing mats directly on the floor can feel more exposed and less defined, potentially leading to distractions and disruptions as they might feel less able to settle down due to the lack of personal boundaries.
These cots are both lightweight and rugged, with gapless, no-pinch design - steel tube frame & legs. The stain-resistant nylon and mesh fabric creates a personalized, comfortable sleeping surface. The legs feature a special plastic over-molding to protect floors and add extra durability.
The life expectancy of this very well constructed cot is approximately 8 to 12 times the lifespan of a rest mat, making this a great investment. These cots arrive fully assembled and ready to use, packaged in sets of 4. Each measures 53-1/4" x 22-1/2"W x 5-3/4"H. Select either Gray or Blue, above.
