Little People Play Mat $4.99 any comments?

[intuitionmom]

Does anyone have this mat? How good/ useful is it? $4.99 INCLUDING S+H is really tempting...
Thanks.

There was a post about the mat last fall and the overall opinion was that it wasn't THAT useful. I have a friend with one and I think her kids can take it or leave it, but hey, $4.99 could be worth it.

I have one and I'm not that impressed. It has little icons to suggest using the farm, garage, and house with it. We have none of those sets.

Granted, my ds is only 14 mo right now, so maybe we'll find it useful later. Maybe we'll end up getting those sets...who knows.

I just ordered one & it should be arriving any time. I can let you know. Guess I could always sell it on E-bay as I have seen some there for quite a bit more than $4.99.

We haven't really used it yet. DD is 21 months and is just really starting to get into her little people sets. It took forever to get. They sent me one three times before I got one! I felt like they didn't believe me that it wasn't reaching my house. The address was correct and everything. 7 months later, I finally got one!

We got ours when DS was about a year. Now he is 22 months and really getting into Little People and "pretend play" in general. The mat is nice for his bedroom -- he generally keeps his people confined to the mat. While we don't put things were they indicate on the mat, my DS loves sitting and playing on it. For $4.99 I say get it. It's a cute addition to the little people items we have.

We have it- and my 16 m.o. daughter LOVES it - it's colorful, and really makes our little people sets look like a village. i love it too becasue we have TONS of little people and it helps keep them neat and organized and in one area of the playroom. Totally worth it. in fact, we also have the pop 'ems one- same idea and its also great.

Where did you find this? DS is just getting into Little People so I'm always looking for something new :-)

A little flyer comes in each set of LP with mail-in directions. You could probably call FP directly and ask.

HTH!

I didn't even think to check my Little People boxes. And Deb, thanks for the printable form - so easy! :-)
