Skil-Care Crash Pads for Kids Sensory, High-Density Foam Crash Mat, Nylon

Very happy with the crash pad! Two year old loves it. It’s an easy way for him to burn some energy. It’s soft and sturdy easy to clean not to heavy to put away and it’s held up for more than 6 months.It’s been 1 year and is holding up so good no issues with it. My grandson has so much fun with it still. Good product.

I purchased this originally hoping to use it as an outdoor climbing crash pad, but soon realized that this would not be very practical for outdoor bouldering. As a result, I decided to keep it in my living room (as opposed to going through the hassle of finding a way to resell/return), and ended up being incredibly surprised at how useful this would become!It sits in the middle of my large sectional couch (which coincidentally creates an almost-perfect square), and accommodates a queen-size, fitted sheet PERFECTLY. As a result, I can change the color/appearance of this pad to match whatever decor scheme I have going on, by simply buying a queen-size fitted sheet. Not to mention, it's very easy to wash the sheets on a regular basis, which functions to protect the material of the pad itself.It serves so many purposes as a living room crash pad that again, are incredibly surprising:- People are able to rest their feet on it, like an ottoman.- When friends stay the night, it serves as a comfy little cot.- It's great for curling up and watching TV/movies with a few people.- It's a great place to grab a nap in the middle of the day.- I've used it to place against a wall and drive golf balls against.- And of course, it's great at it's intended function of cushioning falls/flips/jumps (I can now do a standing backflip!)My only gripe with this pad, is that it has no in/out air-flow solution. The pad is essentially a zippered air-tight vinyl bag with foam blocks inside (imagine a ziplock bag with a bunch of sponges inside). As a result, whenever anyone jumps on the crash pad, all of the air inside wants to rush out, and a lot of stress is placed on the weakest part of the pad, which is the zipper. SO FAR, the zipper has not broken as a result of this, however, from time to time, a crash will force it to unzip and several blocks will shoot out. I've found that keeping the zipper very slightly open allows some air to pass from inside the pad to out, and decreases the tension placed on the zipper itself, hopefully prolonging its lifespan. I'm currently considering running a small piece of hose from the inside to the out to create a permanent solution.I'd like to clarify why I labeled this as an educational product. I truly believe that products like this serve to increase a user's awareness of their body's balance and kinesthesia. Using this every day in a way that challenges you will almost certainly improve your whole body appreciation of orientation in space, as well as balance and core strength. But that's just my $0.02!Overall, for the price, this has turned out to be one of my favorite things in my house. I highly recommend to anyone that lives an active lifestyle, and enjoys feeling like a kid every now and again!

My kids love it and I now I don't have to worry about them breaking a bone jumping from the couch onto the ground,now they're jumping onto the pad is very fun for them.

I bought two of these for my kids school. They look for odd with blocks of foam sticking out everywhere but the kids love them. The teachers appreciate that they can wipe them down easily.

My kids really enjoy this crash pad. It has great padding and is a perfect size. It’s light, so it’s easy to move around, but still provides enough protection for my kids to jump on it safely.

Crash pad is good quality and sturdy when my son lays on top of it. It goes down and when he gets back up every goes back to his original shape definitely worth it. He loves playing with it back-and-forth and I get to do my homework while he entertains himself!

I absolutely love our crash pad. My three daughters (4.5, 3.5, 2 years old) are obsessed with this thing and love jumping on it and playing with each other. It’s big enough for all of them to be on it at once. It does slide on our hardwood floor a bit, even though it is fairly heavy, so we have to put it on a rug to minimize that. It’s super comfortable to lay on, and the material is easy to clean if they spill any food or drink on it. Overall, my kids and their friends have a ton of fun playing on this crash pad and it was well worth the price! Would definitely recommend buying for hours of fun!

This is a great crash pad and a great price compared to other sites! My kids love it. The only thing I don't love is the smell. We've had it a couple weeks and it's still really stinky. Now that our weather has cleared up, I'm going to try setting it outside for a while to see if we can air it out a bit.A few little tips: it takes several days to reach full size. I was a little disappointed at first because it seemed kind of flat, but it has really expanded and is nice and plump just like in the picture.Also, I recommend the extra cover. I almost didn't get one, because my kids aren't very messy so I didn't think it would be necessary. But I'm glad I ended up getting one. We had a mishap and the whole thing was covered in dry wall dust the day after we got it. I just took the extra cover off and threw it in the wash. It would have been a pain to wipe that whole thing down. (It says in the printed material that it is "impractical" to remove the stuffing to wash the original casing and indeed it would be.) Besides that, the original casing has only a long, unsecured zipper enclosing it. I'm sure that my curious boys would have eventually gotten into it and that would be a huge mess.Finally, one of my sons is sometimes sensitive to the sound it makes. So, I cover it in a huge fleece blanket and that seems to help. (I think a softer, vented cover would be great for it. Maybe someday I'll make one...)

This is THE best investment for young kids. Keeps our 3 boys busy for literal hours. We move it from below the climbing walls to beside the couch and they do flips off the couch, wrestle or just laze. It's awesome and probably most used item in the jungle gym. Nothing negative to say about it- great quality foam, zipper and material. Also, easy to clean (we've had many spills on it too)

Great! Comfortable. Kids love it!

Great quality. Alot of foam to cushion. Washable. No issues.

Our son with ASD loves his crash Matt great for sensory seekers. Made some very high-quality materials.

An excellent tool to help super hyper kids to expell energy.
