Playtime is Portable – Even on an Airplane!

It’s time to get booking those holiday flights, and since the holidays don’t really seem like the appropriate time to ditch the kids with Grandma you’re going to have to bring them with you. Kids and confined spaces aren’t a great combination at the best of time. Try it for hours on end and mix it with the excitement of the holiday season and you could very well be screwed if you don’t plan ahead.

Portable Playtime is a patent-pending kids backpack that converts to a playmat designed to fit the airplane tray table. It’s the ideal accessory for traveling by air. As your child’s carry-on, it is lightweight and foldable and looks like a compact backpack. When you open it, though, Portable Playtime becomes an instant playmat that fits on the fold-out trays on airplanes. It is secured by adjustable straps and features easy-to-use zippers and several pockets for storing toys and snacks. More important than storing them, though, is the fact that it provides a germ-free snacking & play area in what is otherwise a germ-filled bubble.

Portable Playtime comes in five fun styles: Plane Fun (pictured @ top & middle) , Aero Playin’, Princess Adventure, Pirate Passage, and Enchanted Journey.

Now that I’ve got my Portable Playtime ready for my preschooler’s first airplane ride, I just need someone to buy me the ticket. Any takers?

Win it! We’ve got a Portable Playtime mat in the Plane Fun style to give away. To enter, leave a comment on this post before noon mst on December 10, 2008.

    So cool – as a mom who travels with her kiddos all the time, (both kids took their first trans-continental flights in their first month!) I can agree that long flights are tough on rambunctious little ones! What a super idea by Portable Playtime.
