Choosing a Play Mat by Season

Quick answer: A good play mat works year-round: in winter it insulates a cold floor so baby is warmer, and in summer its cool-touch surface stays comfortable to lie on. PopsyKosy's closed-cell surface gives that warmth in winter and a cooler feel in summer.

Warmer in winter

The cushioned, closed-cell layer puts a barrier between baby and a cold hard floor, so floor play stays comfortable in cooler months.

Cooler in summer

The surface has a cool-touch feel that stays comfortable to lie on when the room is warm.
