Jodi - i'll check out those alphabet mats today, thanks!
Mummy of Many - checked out ebay - no luck

The PVC covers are just so hard to come by!

Ren, there is one of those in the bottom of my porta-cot. It is a mattress (thin) that is pvc covered and folds into three sections. Is that what you meant? It is dark blue. I actually thought it would make a great play mat!

yeah sounds like it Oscar!! I have a portacot Mum bought us so i'll have to check out the mat that came with it!! lol didnt think of that.....

But i still want one thats separate iykwim..... i'll keep looking! Can buy them as a playmat alone that rolls up and has carry handles so you can pack it away easily etc

Ren do you have a sewing machine?? If you do, or know someone who does, pop into a spot light and grab some padded PVC material (which will more than likely be in the same section as muslin wrap material) and whip one together yourself. You can buy a piece of foam from Clark Rubber and use your own cover. That is what I did and worked out so much cheaper plus you can make it whatever size you need. Plus another option is when bubba gets a bit bigger you can take off the PVC and put on a material one.

Thanks Dan! I think i might just do that you know? It's going to be heaps cheaper too!!
Yep i do have a sewing machine just not very good at using it

Good luck honey. The best thing about it is it's just four straight lines. YOU CAN DO IT

We've got one that is a base for our playpen. But we haven't used it, coz the playpen is around the tv LOL. It's a fairly big square, and doesn't fold up neatly, but it sounds like what you want. We got it from babies galore with the playpen.
