Tranquil Corner – Complete Nursery Reading & Quiet Area Set

Create a welcoming corner for reading, storytelling and quiet activities with the Tranquil Corner – a coordinated early years set containing two large felt wall panels, four contrasting cushions and a soft floor rug. Designed to transform an otherwise unused corner into a clearly defined learning space, the Tranquil Corner combines comfortable floor-level resources with soft, muted styling to create an inviting area within nurseries and early years environments.

The two hard-wearing felt wall panels form the Tranquil Corner backdrop and attach to the walls with Velcro. A 150 × 100cm floor rug provides a comfortable central area, while four contrasting-coloured cushions offer flexible seating for children during books, storytelling and appropriate quiet activities.

Everything has been coordinated as one complete set, making the Tranquil Corner an easy way to establish a dedicated reading or quieter activity area without having to source the individual elements separately.

Complete Tranquil Corner Set

The Tranquil Corner includes the main elements required to create a coordinated floor-level corner:

• 2 large hard-wearing felt wall panels

• 4 contrasting-coloured cushions

• 1 soft floor rug

The individual components work together visually while serving different practical purposes.

The wall panels define the area, the rug creates a comfortable floor space, and the cushions provide movable places for children to sit.

Two Large Felt Wall Panels

The Tranquil Corner includes two wall panels made from hard-wearing felt.

The supplied panel sizes are:

• 1 × 150 × 100cm wall panel

• 1 × 100 × 100cm wall panel

Positioned across adjoining walls, the panels help visually define the corner and distinguish it from the surrounding learning environment.

This can be particularly useful within larger rooms where several activities take place simultaneously.

Velcro Wall Attachment

The felt panels attach to the wall using Velcro, providing the intended installation method for the Tranquil Corner.

Adults should install the panels according to the supplied instructions and ensure that the chosen wall surfaces and fixing arrangement are appropriate.

Check the fixings regularly as part of routine maintenance and reposition or secure components if necessary.

Four Contrasting-Coloured Cushions

The Tranquil Corner includes four cushions in contrasting colours.

These provide flexible seating that can be moved according to the activity.

Children can select a cushion when settling down with a book or participating in an appropriate floor-based activity.

The four individual cushions can be:

• Arranged together

• Positioned around the rug

• Used for small-group reading

• Moved according to the activity

• Returned to the corner after use

Their contrasting colours also introduce subtle visual variation within the otherwise coordinated environment.

Soft 150 × 100cm Floor Rug

A 150 × 100cm floor rug forms the central floor area of the Tranquil Corner.

Its soft construction creates a comfortable surface for appropriate seated activities and visually connects the cushions with the wall panels.

The rug's colours complement the rest of the collection rather than introducing highly contrasting patterns.

This helps create a coordinated overall appearance across the complete corner.

Create a Dedicated Reading Corner

The Tranquil Corner is particularly well suited to creating an early years reading area.

Add suitable book storage separately, so children have a clearly identifiable place to sit with books.

The area can support:

• Independent book exploration

• Adult-led storytelling

• Shared reading

• Picture-book discussions

• Small-group literacy activities

The physical environment helps define where the activity takes place while allowing practitioners to change the books and learning focus as required.

Comfortable Storytelling Space

The combination of rug and Rugr cushions also creates a useful environment for storytelling.

Children can gather within the Tranquil Corner while an adult introduces a story or picture book.

Afterwards, practitioners can use the same space for conversation about characters, events or children's own ideas.

Because the Tranquil Corner doesn't have one fixed educational theme, the books and stories can change throughout the year without changing the seating area itself.

Quiet Activity Area

The Tranquil Corner can also provide a defined space for appropriate quieter activities.

Potential uses include:

• Looking through books

• Listening to a story

• Talking with an adult

• Small-group discussion

• Suitable quiet play

• Individual seated activities

The set provides the physical environment rather than prescribing how children must feel or behave while using it.

Individual children respond differently to spaces, colours and furnishings, so the Tranquil Corner is best described as creating a comfortable, quieter area rather than guaranteeing calm or emotional regulation.

Soft, Muted Styling

The coordinated wall panels, cushions, and rug use a softer visual approach designed to create a harmonious appearance.

Rather than filling the area with numerous unrelated furnishings, the Tranquil Corner provides matching components selected to work together.

This can help practitioners create a polished reading or quiet area with minimal additional setup.

Make Better Use of a Classroom Corner

Corners can sometimes become awkward areas within a nursery or classroom layout.

The Tranquil Corner is specifically designed to turn such a space into a purposeful part of the learning environment.

The two differently sized wall panels work with the corner configuration, while the rectangular rug defines the usable floor area.

The result is a dedicated space that remains visually connected to the rest of the room while having its own clear identity.

Flexible Floor-Level Seating

The four separate cushions allow practitioners to alter the seating arrangement whenever required.

During a small-group story, all four might be positioned together.

During independent book exploration, children can spread the cushions around the rug.

This flexibility makes the Tranquil Corner suitable for changing activities without requiring fixed furniture.

Nursery and Early Years Environments

The Tranquil Corner is particularly relevant to environments where comfortable floor-level areas are used throughout the day.

It can be incorporated into:

• Nurseries

• Preschools

• Early years classrooms

• Reading areas

• Book corners

• Storytelling spaces

• Quiet activity areas

• Small-group spaces

Practitioners can then add suitable books or learning resources according to the intended purpose.

A Coordinated Alternative to Separate Furnishings

Creating a reading corner piece by piece can involve trying to coordinate different rugs, cushions and wall features.

The Tranquil Corner brings these elements together as one set.

You receive:

Wall panels + Rug + FoRugcushions

This creates a consistent visual style and provides the principal soft furnishings needed to establish the area.

Additional books, book storage and learning resources are supplied separately.

Why Choose the Tranquil Corner?

The Tranquil Corner provides a straightforward way to transform a nursery or early years corner into a comfortable, visually coordinated reading and quiet activity space.

Two large hard-wearing felt wall panels help define the area, with one measuring 150 × 100cm and the other 100 × 100cm. The included 150 × 100cm rug creates a soft central floor area, while four contrasting-coloured cushions provide flexible individual seating.

The components can support reading, storytelling, small-group discussions and other appropriate quiet activities while retaining enough flexibility for the space to change throughout the day.

For settings looking for a nursery reading corner, early years quiet area, classroom cosy corner or complete reading-corner set, the Tranquil Corner provides the principal furnishings within one coordinated collection.
