Lovevery Play Mat | Playtime With Purpose

Shopping for a baby is hard. Babies don’t require much beyond food, warm clothing, diapers, and a bed. There have been a few times I have wondered how to shop for my little ones at a holiday that was pretty close to birth. If investing in something for your child’s first year, take a look at the Lovevery Baby Activity Mat. This sweet gift not only invests in your child’s first year, it invests in your child’s development which invests in a lifetime. This mat has years of play in one box!

The Lovevery Baby Play Mat is designed by child development experts for fun and growth at every stage. It is eco-friendly, non-toxic, and is grounded in science for playtime with purpose.  We had a play gym with our last baby, but when finding something for the twins, I wanted to to find something large enough for them both but also a mat that focused on developmental milestones.

The mat was just that, large. You can see it easily fits Henry (twin A) and Elijah our toddler. The packaging was very thoughtful. Not only was it adorable, it was very easy to put together.   I really appreciate the FSC-certified wooden structure. It makes the piece very solid so I can trust (to an extent) my older son around the younger boy. The structure is sturdy meaning he can lean on it and it isn’t going to collapse. It can easily be broken down as well for storage or moving purposes.

The mat is also intuitive. This play Gym is designed by experts for your baby’s developing brain. The fabrics are soft and colorful – very aesthetically pleasing. The mat comes with toys as well as cards. One of our favorite feature are the gym’s activity cards. We used them for our 15 month old to identify parts of the face but we also used the black and white cards for the 8 week old twins as their eye site develops. It was amazing how they both tracked and focused on the cards. (You can see the video of Max above.)

We use our play gym at the very beginning of the day. Their brains are well rested and they are ready for tummy and back time. The mat is incredibly soft and great for room to roll over and move. I have placed all three babies on the spacious mat, though I usually spend time holding one while the other two play.

Each edge of the mat has a purpose for your child.  On the mat, there are five development zones that reveal or conceal to prevent over stimulation and promote brain and motor skill development:

• Learning to focus
• Making sounds
• How things feel
• Hiding and finding
• Exploring colors

The play gym comes with…

• The Play Guide – 24 stage-based play activities and ideas for fun stage-based play from newborn through 12+ months.
• BPA-free Montessori organic ball & teether
• Sustainable wood batting toy designed for grasping, mouthing and passing hand to hand.
• 4 interchangeable learning card sets – black & white, body, objects, mirrors
• Sustainably-sourced wooden legs for stability

You can also hold on to this toy for longer. The wooden legs can be covered and convert to a play fort or small tent, perfect for our toddler!  The Play Gym becomes a cozy space for your growing baby and their friends to play.

All in all, there were a few features that were very appealing. On this mat, I could focus on fun with my babies without worrying about things I need to do for their development; a book came along with some ideas! Another favorite feature, was the two minute setup and take down, no tools required.  You hear me mothers? no tools, no batteries!
