GATHER AROUND MAT 3M

"It is important for all of us to have a connection with other people, even though sometimes we don’t think it."

"Having a connection and a bond with others only enriches our lives and our stories, and it helps create us as a person," says Australian Aboriginal artist De Greer Yindimincarlie. "So come, gather around and let's connect with each other."

Made from recycled polypropylene sourced from plastic bags, plastic drink bottles, and medicine bottles, these mats ensure you are celebrating the planet as well as multiculturalism. The Gather Around 3m in diameter mat is light enough to carry or fold-up for transport or storage, so you can move it from your art space or reading corner to a shady spot outside at lunchtime. It's soft and comfortable, but equally sturdy.

These large outdoor mats are perfect for schools and early learning environments or use them indoors for storytelling, art and craft. Consider using them in conjunction with the Little Black Game to extend learning.

Gather Around also makes perfect sense as a camping mat, unique flooring inside your bell tent, at events, and as pop-up seating for concerts, picnics, and festivals. Also available in another colour option.
