2010 Holiday Gift Guide – Playspot by Skip*Hop Review And $75 Gift Certificate from Style Kid

June 16, 2019November 5, 2010 by Vivian

Kids are a lot of great things- funny, cute, surprising- but they can also be pretty messy. If your kids have a play room, or always play in the same place, then that spot of your house probably has a more scuffed-up floor or dirtier carpet than the rest. However, kid-friendly floor coverings usually don’t go well with regular home décor. Luckily, there’s one that breaks the mold: Playspot by Skip Hop.

Skip Hop’s Playspot is the perfect compromise between child-friendly and adult-approved. This innovative floor covering consists of 20 tiles, all 14” by 14”. They snap together to make a stylish carpet-like covering, and can be rearranged or combined with other kits to create the perfect size and design for your house. Also, unlike most foam tile floor coverings, Playspot is safe for children of all ages, from infant to teen. They’re also safe in another way: they’re BPA-, Phthalate- and PVC-free. The Playspot floor tiles are the perfect ground for any play area.

Although Playspot is available at several different retailers, the best place to check it out is at my favorite Canadian parent site, Style Kid. Style Kid was created by a mom, for other moms, and specializes in carrying products that are otherwise hard to find in Canada. In addition, Style Kid offers a fundraising program, as a way for schools, sports groups, etc, to raise money for programs and activities. They’re a great company doing good!

I was excited to review and give the Playspot tiles a run in my house. The floor of our playroom always seems to be messy, and it’s so hard to get sticky things out of the carpet. However, whenever I go to regular stores, the only kid-friendly carpet I see has loud designs that wouldn’t fit well with my home at all. The tasteful Playspot designs, however, came in several colors, so it was easy to pick one that went well with my home.

My daughter liked the new design, and she also liked how I let her bring drinks and snacks into the playroom now. When sitting on the Playspot tiles with her, I noticed that they were much softer and comfy than a normal floor would be. Also, whenever we had guests over, they noticed the cool new “carpet” and always asked me where I got it.

That’s why I think the Skip Hop Playspot from Style Kid would make the perfect gift. It’s great for kids of all ages, and would be especially great for families with more than one child. It’s durable, safe, and great looking! With the holiday season creeping up on us, you should head over to Style Kid and check out these Playspot tiles. They’ll make a gift that anyone with children can appreciate.
