Excellent for tummy time!

Great product. My infant fought tummy time and would roll over on his back. I bought this water play mat to encourage tummy time and it worked! I was afraid that it would pop if he chewed on it, but it stood up to his tough gums! Even now that he's sitting up and crawling, he still enjoys playing with the mat.

My granddaughter didn't like tummy time until we introduced her to the open friends water play mat. It has made a world of difference!

My 8-month old twin grandsons are all about the tummy time these days. They love to slap the surface and feel the water move, following the objects with their eyes. Adds a little more excitement to tummy time for them.
