Developmental Benefits of Baby Play Mats

A quality baby play mat does more than just provide a safe space - it helps with important developmental milestones:

🤸 Motor skills – encourages reaching, rolling, and eventually crawling
👂 Sensory development – different textures and sounds stimulate the senses
👀 Visual tracking – bright patterns help babies practice focusing their eyes
📏 Spatial awareness – helps babies learn about their body in relation to space

Products like our Soft Landing Safety Pad foam mat offer unique sensory experiences that babies love during tummy time.

Most Asked Questions About Baby Play Mats

When should I start using a play mat for my baby?

You can start using a baby play mat from birth! Newborns benefit from short supervised tummy time sessions, which help strengthen neck and shoulder muscles. As your baby grows, they'll use the mat in different ways - from batting at hanging toys to practicing rolling over and eventually sitting up and crawling.

How do I clean and maintain a baby play mat?

Most of our play mats for babies can be wiped clean with mild soap and water. For water mats like our Under the Sea Learning Fun, you can easily wipe the surfaces. Always check the care instructions for your specific mat, and make sure it's completely dry before letting your baby play on it again.

Are baby play mats worth it?

Absolutely! A good baby mat provides a clean, safe space for your baby to play and develop important skills. They protect your little one from hard floors, can be easily cleaned after spills, and often include features that stimulate development. Many parents tell us their play mat becomes the most-used baby item in their home!

What's the difference between a play mat and an activity gym?

A basic baby play mat is a padded surface for your baby to lie or play on. An activity gym includes a mat plus an arch with hanging toys for your baby to look at and eventually bat at or grab. Our collection includes both simple mats and more interactive options to suit your preferences.

How big should a baby play mat be?

The ideal size depends on your space and how you'll use it. For basic tummy time, a smaller mat (around 30x30 inches) works well. If you want a space for your growing baby to roll and eventually crawl, look for larger mats or expandable options like our Soft Landing Safety Pad that grow with your child.

• Ensure the mat has enough room around it for you to sit comfortably

• For rolling babies, consider adding CornerHugs™️ to nearby furniture for added safety
