The travel mat comprises a fabric panel of an appropriate size to be received on an airplane tray table or on a travel tray intended for use in an automobile. Toys/activities are provided on both the front and back side of the tray wherein the tray can be flipped as desired to change the set of toys with which the child is playing.

Abstract: A travel mat having a plurality of activities for young children attached to and distributed thereon is described. The mat is typically configured in an activity configuration to slip and/or slide over and be secured to an airline seatback tray table in such a manner that provides various activities to be enjoyed by a child when the associated tray table is in both its deployed position or in its stowed upright and latched position. The travel mat is also convertible into a tote configuration that protects and stows the various activities as well as other optional material, such as paper, crayons or children's books therein, and is easily carried by either the parent or a child. The mat can be turned inside out to convert it from the tote configuration to an activity configuration. Advantageously, the various activities and toys with the mat are protected and safely stored during transport between airplanes or between destinations.
