Baby Play Mat buying guide
A soft play space for the floor
Hard floors and babies do not mix well. This play mat gives your child a big, soft space for play. It measures 198 x 178 cm, which is about 78 x 70 in. The foam is 1 cm thick.
There is room for your baby to roll and crawl, and room for you to sit down and play too.
Two pictures, one mat
The mat is printed on both sides.
- One side has an alphabet road. Toddlers love to drive toy cars and trains along it.
- The other side has animals. Point to them and name them with your child.
Flip the mat over when your child wants something new.
What it is made of
The mat is made of XPE foam. The maker says it is free from BPA and phthalates. The foam is soft to sit and kneel on.
The surface is waterproof, so milk, juice and drool sit on top. Wipe them away with a damp cloth. Let the mat dry before you fold it.
Folds and travels
It is one mat, not a set of puzzle tiles that come apart. It folds up in a few steps, and the gallery shows how. A travel bag comes with it.
The mat weighs about 1.2 kg. That makes it easy to carry to another room, to a family visit or to the park.
Planning your space
Before you order, measure your floor. You need about 198 x 178 cm of clear space. Lay the mat on a clean, flat floor. It works on hard floors and on carpet.
Keep the play area clear of cords, sharp corners and small objects.
Ways to use it
- Tummy time for younger babies
- Rolling, sitting and crawling
- Car and train play on the road side
- Reading and naming animals together
- Building with blocks and puzzles
Good habits
A play mat is a soft place to play. It is not a place to leave a baby alone. Always stay with your child while they play on it.
New foam can have a light smell. Unfold the mat and let it air out before the first use.
