I'm looking for a floor covering to go over tiles to provide protection to my child who likes to run around a be silly. He will be sitting up without a high chair soon and we have a tiled loungeroom and dining room.

I was thinking of getting something like rugs, foam or rubber to soften any falls or trips & also make the room warmers in winter.

Room sizes:

Dining Room: 3m x 2.9m
Lounge room: 3.5m x 4m

Any suggestions on the cheapest place to get these (either online or in the Penrith/Blacktown/Hawkesbury/Hills Shire area)?

    Rug from IKEA or Bunnings.

    Plus 1 on rugs, probably the most cost effective and visually appealing. Alternatively you've got those jigsaw type gym mats, I've used then on a home gym and they are dam comfortable to walk on, but look super crap.

    Why do you have a tiled lounge room?

      I'm guessing it's a 60s home renovated by Italians in the 80s

      Some people prefer tiles.

        In the bathroom and laundry, yes

          some people tile their entire house, i had tiles in the living room for most of my life growing up, its not such a strange thing for people with european backgrounds.

      You should get out more. Experience the world.

        Oh, so you think washing machines in kitchens like the Uk is also a good thing?

      Not our choice, that's how the house came.

      Tiles are common on ground floors nowadays. More so than soft flooring.

    What we did for the exact same reasons, we went to a local seconds carpet seller and got them to make what we purchased into rugs. A 3x3 cost us around $50 into total.

    Great in winter and good for falling kids.
