From its first weeks, your baby needs a dedicated space to discover their body and the world around them safely. The play mat is much more than a simple decorative accessory: it is your child's first exploration ground. In Morocco, where floors are often tiled and cool, having a comfortable and insulating mat is essential for practicing "Tummy Time", which is vital for strengthening baby's neck and back before they start crawling or sitting up.
At Wlidaty, we have selected a vast range of mats and play areas designed to stimulate the senses of toddlers while harmoniously fitting into your interior. Whether you are looking for a cozy cocoon for a newborn or a large foam play surface for an active explorer, our collection meets all developmental needs (visual, tactile, auditory) and all budgets in dirhams (MAD). It is the guarantee of offering your child a healthy, fun, and protected environment.
Discover the different types of play mats and areas available:
- Play Mats with Arches: The great classic from birth. Equipped with suspended toys (mirrors, rattles, soft toys), it stimulates sight and encourages baby to reach out and grab objects.
- Giant Foam Mats (puzzle or foldable type): Ideal for babies starting to roll over or crawl. They offer excellent thermal insulation against cold floors and cushion small falls. Easy to clean with a wipe.
- 3-in-1 Mats and Storage Bags: Ingenious solutions (often made of organic cotton) that serve as a comfortable play mat and close up into a bag to store toys in the blink of an eye. Perfect for parents in a hurry or for taking to the grandparents'.
- Musical Mats (Piano Gym): These interactive models allow baby to create sounds with their feet or hands, promoting the understanding of cause and effect.
- Activity and Support Cushions: Ergonomic accessories designed to help baby hold their head or sit comfortably while playing.
- Sensory and Montessori Mats: Clean designs with contrasts (black and white) or varied textures for gentle cognitive stimulation without overwhelming the child.
Our tips for choosing and using your play mat:
- For newborns, prioritize comfort and softness with low arches so they can clearly see the toys.
- If you have tiles or marble at home, opt for a model with good thickness or add foam tiles underneath to insulate against the cold.
- Consider maintenance: fabric mats must be machine washable (regurgitations are frequent), while foam mats must be water resistant.
- Alternate suspended toys to maintain baby's interest. Do not put everything out at once to avoid overstimulation.
- Never leave baby unsupervised, even on a secure mat, especially if they start moving around.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about play mats:
At what age can baby be placed on a play mat?
From birth (0 months). Initially, baby will simply observe contrasts and colors. Around 2-3 months, they will start trying to grab the suspended objects.
What is the difference between a play mat and a playpen?
The play mat is open and encourages free movement on the floor. The playpen is an enclosed space with barriers, useful for securing a child who is already moving when you cannot supervise them 100%.
How do you clean foam mats?
Most foam mats and puzzle tiles are cleaned simply with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemical products because baby might put the mat in their mouth.
Are the mats thick enough to insulate against cold floors in winter?
Yes, we prioritize padded or dense foam models specifically for thermal comfort. For thin fabric models, we recommend placing them on a living room rug or a foam base.
What is a Montessori play mat?
It is a mat that favors neutral colors, natural materials, and simple realistic or sensory activities, avoiding electronic overstimulation (bright lights and loud sounds).
Do you deliver giant mats everywhere in Morocco?
Absolutely. Whether it's a small nomadic mat or a large XXL foldable mat, Wlidaty ensures home delivery in all cities of the Kingdom.
