  • Publication number: 20060207482
    Abstract: The fitted activity pad is a covering that is fitted onto a tabletop in order to protect the table top from damage and shield children from potential injury from bumping against the edges of the tabletop. The fitted activity pad has a top portion decorated with indicia and at least one sidewall extending around the top portion of the pad. The sidewall is stuff with a cushioning material. An elastic gather extends around the periphery of the sidewall, which provides the necessary elasticity to maintain the fitted pad onto the tabletop. The fitted activity pad is reversible and may be designed with additional indicia on the bottom surface of the pad.
