Wendel, the one rug claimed to be a child's prayer rug that I know of is a Beshir advertised by Ronnie Newman in HALI 98 page 109. Its dimensions are 2-7 x 3-0, so it's as wide as a normal prayer rug but shorter. In fact, it looks like a Beshir of a standard type but with truncated length. Since the piece we are discussing here is of standard prayer rug size, there is no reason to suppose that if it is a prayer rug at all, it is one for a child or for two people. But, as I said in an earlier append, it isn't likely to be a prayer rug at all.
