The carpet version is great for adding Velcro manipulatives like Tumbl Trak hands and feet or Velcro numbers to help teach skills.
If a panel is not connected to another panel, will the flap scratch me?
We've designed the Velcro flap to fold closed when it is not needed, or not in use. See the photo insert above.
