I am making a play area for my 6 month old. We have tile flooring downstairs where we spend most of our time?
I am looking for extra soft flooring that I can put in the play area so when she falls she doesn't get hurt. I already have an ABC mat, the traditional foam mats for a play area. I don't trust it by itself because she has fallien straight back on it and hit her head and started crying. She doesn't cry for much, so I'm assuming the regular play mat on the tile floor isn't enough cushion. I live in the Tampa, FL so if anyone knows of any flooring stores that I could go to that would be awesome. If not, any websites where I can get soft flooring would be great. I think I'm looking for something at least an inch thick. Any suggestions or advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Can I be a little bit more specific and say that I don't need a lecture, that a website or a store name would suffice.
The crying may not have necessarily been the pain, but that she got scared. Don't spend too much on this, remember kids grow up fast and out of stuff even faster.
But for your purpose:
I saw this stuff a few weeks ago at sears, it was about $30/roll. It was meant to be a roll out mat for play areas, work out etc.
They had two versions a blue one for what I mentioned above and a grey one for heavier duty areas.
It is very similar to a yoga/exercise mat, but thicker.
I can't find it online, but it was in the hardware section as opposed to flooring etc.
Good luck
