Investigation Mats
Look closer. Think deeper. Discover more.
Our A3 Investigation Mats are designed to turn everyday finds into exciting opportunities for exploration, observation and conversation. Each wipe-clean mat provides playful prompts and challenges that encourage children to look closely, compare, investigate, make predictions and share their ideas.
Perfect for on-the-go learning, take them into the garden, on a woodland walk, to the park or simply use them at home. Add loose parts, natural treasures or an Explorer Bag to make the investigation even more hands-on.
And when you're ready for your next adventure, simply wipe clean and use again!
