My Project

We are looking for rugs for various classrooms to replace ones that were ruined in the flood, last year. This rug would be perfect as it is warm and friendly. It is large enough to fit a large classroom full of students to gather so the teacher can call the students to the carpet, to read aloud and share ideas. These colors and size are perfect for a classroom, grade 6, which would benefit 200 plus students as they rotate through classes. We would greatly appreciate your help and support with this project.
