While many adults wish the average forty-hour workweek included a daily nap break, this privilege is still reserved exclusively for children in the younger grades. In classrooms all over the country, lucky children hunker down for some quality rest and relaxation at least once a day. Despite the thrill of being able to sleep at school, in-school naps don’t always measure up to nights spent snoozing at home. Some schools provide nap mats for children, but they’re often well worn and flimsy, providing little comfort and inadequate padding. Of course many parents take the initiative to venture out and buy a simple nap map for their son or daughter, but this also involves purchasing extra accessories such as pillows and blankets. All in all, this can prove a hefty burden for a young child to shoulder or carry home. For those who believe that students are entitled to good quality sleep both at school and at home, Stephen Joseph once again delivers a phenomenal product that will not only help your child rack up sleep hours, but will also eliminate the hassle of bundling a pillow, mat, and blanket together each day.

These plush nap mats are not only exceedingly adorable, but also blissfully comfortable. Each nap mat set includes a plush mat that works to prevent backaches and soreness by providing a soft cushion between your child and the floor. Each set also includes an attached plush blanket to ward off shivers and chills as well as a soft, themed pillow upon which your child can rest his or her weary head. The mats come in a variety of models, although most mimic the faces and bodies of cuddly animals. Dog lovers may choose to purchase the Stephen Joseph Dog Nap Mat, a cheerful blue canine with a smattering of brown spots and cute tail. Children can also snuggle up in the arms of a turtle, a horse, a monkey, a ladybug, and even a frog. For a touch of flower power, try the Peace Nap Mat or for sports fans, the Sports Nap Mat may prove ideal. Each nap mat is machine washable and made from a soft velboa material. The nap mat itself measures 52.5” x 24.75” while the blanket measures 41” x 25” and the pillow 11.5” x 10”. Each nap mat can be rolled up, secured with two straps, and carried like a backpack. Custom embroidery is also available for personalization, with inscriptions visible when the mat is rolled up.
