How to Set Up a Kids' Vegan Leather Sofa for Play and Rest

Start with the room, not the sofa

Before you unpack the Transformable Vegan Leather Kid Sofa, choose a spot that meets two conditions: it is indoors, and it is away from stairs and hard or sharp surfaces. The sofa is designed for indoor use only, and the same rule applies to the Vegan Leather Soft Playmat Shades of Day. A playroom, nursery, or living space works well as long as the floor area is clear of obstacles and hazards.

Measure the floor space first. The sofa is 116 cm long, 60 cm wide, and 34 cm high. The playmat is 120 cm by 180 cm. If you plan to use both together, you need room for the mat plus clearance around it so children can move safely. Keep the foam blocks dry at all times, and remember that prolonged exposure to water can damage the foam and cause it to lose its shape.

Set up the transformable sofa in four steps

1. Clear and check the floor: Remove toys, cords, and sharp objects from the area. Confirm the space is indoors and away from stairs.
2. Unfold and position the sofa: The sofa transforms quickly from a sofa to a play mat and back again. Set it in its sofa form for reading or lounging, or open it flat for play.
3. Add the playmat if you have one: Place the Vegan Leather Soft Playmat Shades of Day beside or under the sofa to extend the play area. The playmat folds easily for storage when not in use.
4. Do a final safety check: Make sure the play area is clear of obstacles or hazards, and always supervise children during play.

What the sofa and playmat give you

• Transformable Vegan Leather Kid Sofa - Shades of Day: Functions as both a comfy sofa and a play mat, and transforms quickly from one to the other. One piece covers sitting and floor play, which saves space in a small playroom.

  

• Vegan Leather Soft Playmat Shades of Day: Folds up easily for storage and transport. You can clear the floor quickly when the playmat is not in use.

  

Make the reading corner work

A kids' sofa for a reading corner needs a quiet spot with a wall or shelf nearby, but not so close that the sofa becomes a climbing aid. Place the sofa with its back to a wall if possible, and keep the front open. The neutral, daylight-inspired tones are designed to blend with modern home decor, so you do not need to hide the sofa away.

If you are using the playmat as the base, lay it flat first and then position the sofa at one end. That gives you a defined lounge area and a separate floor space for puzzles or play. The playmat is 120 cm by 180 cm, so it suits a corner of a nursery or playroom rather than a whole room.

Clean vegan leather without damaging the foam

Both the sofa and the playmat have a water-resistant, wipeable surface. Use a clean, damp cloth or sponge with mild soap, non-bleach detergent, or a general-purpose cleaner. Wipe up spills promptly and dry the surface afterward. Do not soak the foam or leave the sofa or mat wet, because prolonged exposure to water can damage the foam and cause it to lose its shape.

Keep the foam blocks dry at all times. This is the most important care rule for both products. If a spill happens, blot it with a damp cloth rather than pouring water on the foam.

Care and safety details to know

• Transformable Vegan Leather Kid Sofa - Shades of Day: Suitable for age 3 and up. Always supervise children during play. The sofa is not a unsupervised play structure; supervision is part of safe setup.
• Vegan Leather Soft Playmat Shades of Day: Suitable for age 3 and up. Always supervise children during play. The playmat has the same age and supervision guidance as the sofa.
• Transformable Vegan Leather Kid Sofa - Shades of Day: This product is not intended for sleeping. The sofa is for play and lounging, not for overnight rest.
• Vegan Leather Soft Playmat Shades of Day: This product is not intended for sleeping. The playmat is not a bed, so keep sleep in a crib or bed.

Choose between the sofa and the playmat

If you want a seat for reading and a quick transformation into floor play, the Transformable Vegan Leather Kid Sofa is the more versatile choice. If you mainly need a large, soft surface for tummy time, crawling, and playtime adventures, the Vegan Leather Soft Playmat Shades of Day covers more floor area. Both are exclusive Coco Village designs and are certified to ASTM / SOR / CE / AS/NZ ISO8124 / UKCA standards for chemical components and safety of objects intended for children's use.

You can use them together, but check the total footprint first. The sofa is 116 cm by 60 cm, and the playmat is 120 cm by 180 cm. In a small room, the playmat alone may be enough. In a larger playroom, the sofa adds a dedicated lounge spot without taking over the room.
