Gifted my friend a play-mat with 4 bedtime buddies and she loves this thing. It came in a handmade travel pouch so she takes it everywhere. The play mat is beautiful and can also be used a napping mat - that's what she's using it for now - an on-the-go travel nap mat! These mats are also machine washable which is great and they're unlike any other play mats I've ever seen in stores. You can see the hand-crafted details. Love the brush-stroked technique. Gorgeous!
