Desk Mats for Sorting Activities

Here you have found desk mats that can be used for various sorting activities.

The activities can be for fun, learning, and or just because you want a cushioned surface to sort on.

Each desk mat is 31.5 x 15.5 inches. They are 3mm thick, and have a neoprene material with a polyester top. They have an anti-slip backing, which reduces slipping and sliding on most surfaces. They also have a durable hemmed edge.

The larger rectangle space can be a fun sorting surface for kids learning about sorting. They can sort larger objects, and simply have more space to spread the smaller items out.

Kids can learn to sort by color; all of the shades of blue can go here, all the shades of orange can go there, and so on. Buttons can be sorted by color, size, and or number of holes in each button. Buttons can also be sorted by style and shape. What other items might you sort with your kids?



The smaller rectangles can be used for sorting more buttons, etc., and also units for a building project, whether they are for kids and or adults. All the like items can go together; screws, nuts and bolts, small wood pieces, etc.

My adult daughter had purchased a variety of pieces of furniture that needed to be assembled. A mat like this would have come in handy. The floor would have been sheilded from sharp edges. The padded surface would also have made it easier to pick up the individual items.



The desk mat with the smallest rectangles are for the serious sorter. Crafters who want a pad for beads (that don't roll around), sequins, larger assortment of buttons, etc. Assemblers who want a padded surface for their washers, screws, small dow rods, etc.
