Favourite item: the play mat from play & go

Translation: machine translated

For me, the cute play mat has passed the practical test: Play mat, tidy-up bag and changing bag in one! With this practical 3-in-1 solution, you are equipped for all eventualities.

I lean back and reminisce about the past. When was the last time I could have used a play mat like this? Once, my neighbours rang the doorbell. I looked behind me and blushed, because we had such a mess in the living room that I didn't even want to open the door. Too late, the chaos was revealed. Tidying everything away was no longer an option. Another time, we visited our friends. The problem: they don't have children. There were objects in every corner that could have broken. There were no toys.

There were several times when we went to a café or restaurant where there was no play area. Holding the child on your lap when it wants to play and crawl is not really relaxing. And the coffee ends up cold. The most sweat-inducing situation of all is the search for a changing table. When you need it, it has disappeared into nirvana. In all these moments, I wished I'd had a practical all-rounder with me. I have now found my problem solver: the practical play mat from play & go.

My first impression

With the play & go play mat, you are equipped for (almost) every situation. You can quickly tidy up, pack up your child's favourite toys and take them with you. You'll also be extremely flexible, as your child can let off steam anywhere with this mat. Changing nappies goes hand in hand with playing. The blanket can be washed and is therefore not only practical, but also functional for everyday use. What more could you want? For me, it's a favourite item that's worth writing about. Incidentally, it also makes a great gift for parents-to-be.

This play mat is a great all-rounder and can be used anywhere.

With the play mat from play & go, you'll be prepared for these situations in the future:

You spread out the blanket in the living room, place toys on it and let your child play. As soon as they've finished, pull the cord and everything is tidy. Ideal for when unexpected visitors turn up.
You are visiting friends, acquaintances or relatives. Put the blanket down, let the child play and simply pull the blanket and toys together when you go home.
You go to a café or restaurant. Your child wants to play, but there is no play area. The floor has seen better days and is dirty. With the blanket, you always have your own little play corner with you. It is also easy to wash.
Use the blanket as a changing bag. Put everything in and off you go. As changing tables are not available everywhere or your child doesn't always have a full nappy at the right time, you can use the padded blanket directly as a base.
You go for a walk, see a green meadow and want to savour the moment. Put the blanket down and savour the moment.
You are at the playground. The older child is playing and the baby can let off steam on the blanket next to them.
It's unexpectedly cold outside and you've left the blanket at home. Put the contents in a bag or in the basket of the pushchair and voilà, the emergency blanket will keep your child warm.
