Get ready to spend A LOT of time on the floor—from the newborn stage, to tummy time, to the toddler stage when you're sitting down and playing with your kids. This mat is comfortable and will grow with you. It's by far the thickest of all the mats we tried and there are a ton of patterns to match your style.

This mat's one flaw is that it can be a bit time consuming to take the cover on and off. Pro tip: lay a baby blanket over the mat, then throw the blanket in the laundry when it gets dirty.
