Toddlers and young children are rarely truly quiet, but this area should focus on promoting the ability to work and play calmly. The quiet play area is usually used for reading or contemplative activites. This quiet area should provide cushions and comfortable seating for reading as well as tables and chairs, primarily for children or students working on puzzles or other quiet activities. If there is not space in the room for a seperate napping area, the quiet play area should also contain the cribs and cots or mats.
