Abstract: The placemat 10 comprises an eating surface 12, a first attachment assembly 13 selectively attached to the eating surface 12 for selectively attaching the placemat to a surface during use, and a second attachment assembly 16 for selectively attaching the placemat to a seat assembly during use. In this particular embodiment, the first attachment assembly 13 comprises a weight 14. Alternative first attachment assemblies such as suction cups are contemplated and are considered to be within the scope of the invention. The term eating surface as it is used in this disclosure should be interpreted broadly and is simply the surface of the placemat 10 upon which food or items may be placed during use. The eating surface 12 is preferably made of, or covered by, a smooth, liquid-resistant material such as vinyl.
