What Babylist Parents Say

“I knew this mat would be amazing but I didn’t realize how much of an essential it really is, I am shocked by the feel and texture of this, I’ve not felt anything like it, it feels like a cushion more than a rug, absolutely beautiful on my living room floor we actually have taken our rug up to replace it with our new mat!” -Beth

If you like the look of a playmat that doubles as a stylish rug but need a customizable option, look no further than Little Nomad. This gorgeous foam floor mat features hand-illustrated designs inspired by vintage Moroccan rugs.

This customizable floor mat is made from 42 triangles and 32 edge pieces, so you can change up both the pattern and the size. Parents with a modern or minimal aesthetic will appreciate the neutral color palette and wipe-clean surface and babies and toddlers will appreciate the soft, cushy spot to play. Just keep in mind that curious babies and toddlers will sometimes pull apart these types of interlocking foam mats.

If you’re shopping for a floor mat but are conscious of chemicals and toxins, consider Toki Mats. The design is unique; the mats consist of a removable (and washable) fabric cover, a natural latex foam insert and a zip closure. Everything is made from non-toxic materials and free of things like phthalates, PVC and lead, and the latex foam insert is certified all-natural rubber and is available in an organic or non-organic option. Toki Mats work on any type of floor and the covers are interchangeable if you get tired of one and want a different design.

Keep in mind that Toki Mats mats require a bit more effort to clean than a wipeable baby floor mat. You’ll need to toss the fabric cover into the washing machine and spot-clean the foam insert any time there’s a big mess like spit up or a blowout. If you want to minimize the mess, consider adding the waterproof cover.

“This mat is great for playing, rolling, crawling, and more! It’s supportive enough for floor play/tummy time and soft enough to cushion a fall. And best of all? It’s truly non-toxic!” -Mikaela

Sweet, simple and modern, this reversible playmat from Pehr is hand-quilted and ethically sourced. It’s light and easy to move around your home (or even roll up and take to grandma’s) yet still cushy and comfortable for your little one to play on. It’s also machine washable and dryer safe. Just note it’s on the smaller side, so if you need something to cover a larger space, the may not be for you.

This play mat may look simple—but you’ll be shocked at just how versatile it is. It’s made from buttery soft bonded leather on one side and flocked suede on the other, so it’s comfortable, water-resistant and folds compactly. And you can use it in so many different ways. It works as a playmat, picnic blanket, beach towel, craft mat, splat mat under the high chair…the possibilities are endless.

Just be aware this isn’t a padded or cushioned mat, so if that’s the type of floor mat you’re looking for, this isn’t your best option.
