If you’re a first time parent like me and can’t decide whether you wanna buy the ole traditional letter puzzle mat or this one, I bought both so hear me out. The measurements of the alphabet mats are so off these days, not to mention those products are thin (I bought that too so I know, trust me). My daughter was a late fast crawler and didn’t start until a month or two ago so that tiny mat wasn’t enough. Not only is this huge but also foamy and soft and the top is plastic so you can clean any type of spills or messes. I can’t recommend this enough!
