How to Pick the Right Play Mat Size

Quick answer: To size a play mat, measure the open floor zone where baby will play, then size up so there is cushioned margin around the edges. For full coverage or odd-shaped rooms, a custom Build Your Floor layout removes the guesswork.

Measure then size up

Note the clear floor area, then choose the next size larger so a rolling or crawling baby stays on the cushioned surface.

When to go custom

For open-plan rooms or layouts with furniture islands, a custom layout fits the exact space with no gaps.
