    That is a great idea! I have looked at the foam squares, but just thought they would never stay in place on carpet.

        Thanks for the idea IVT77 with the plywood and foam mats.

        I have the large foam mats and the alphabet foam mats.

        I only used the large foam mats where the craft table is but it is always moving. I packed the alphabet foam mats away because the kids were damaging it.

        Now I am going to get the ply wood and glue it down.

        IVT77 you have carpet but is the kids stumming their toes on them or tripping.

        I don't want them to fall.

          this does happen sometimes, but they fall on the foam or the carpet so no one gets hurt. I dont allow rough play, so it does not happen often. I added the 1x1 boarder and wrapped it in foam as well, so there are no splinter or stubbing of any toes. It is very sturdy... I love it. Now i just have to figure out how to get the white wall behind it to stay white... I have to clean it nightly with water and bleach...ugh

            Cleaner

            I have the same ideas as the others...mainly with foam mats.

            But, with the approach of cleaning up carpet AFTER disaster strikes,..
            Spot Shot spray is amazing!!

            We did a fire drill out the window yesterday (yes, my kids LOVED it:. Well, I had the genuis idea of letting them go back IN the window as well. My carpet and mats were BLACK with mud.

            After Spot Shot and some lysol wipes...perfection. Today, the kids were like how did you do that??
