USAGE TIPS

STORAGE
The life mat folds in half, making it easy to slide behind or under the sofa. We recommend against storing it in its tote bag for too long — folded in half is the best way to keep it in great shape!

USE:
If your mat has got very wet, even if the cover is waterproof, we still recommend removing the cover to make sure the foam isn't damp at the central seams. If that's the case, remove the cover and let both the cover and foam air dry thoroughly.

Your questions

What is a life mat?

Much more than a simple play mat, our life mat is designed to grow with your child and your family. Thanks to its modularity and her activity covers, it adapts to every stage of life: sensory play, motor development, games, quiet time, extra bed for sleepovers… In short, useful from 0 to 99 years old ! Because at the end of the day, comfort has no age limit.

Designed with the help of early childhood professionals (psychomotor therapist, occupational therapist…), it is perfectly suited to the needs of newborns:

✅ Large, flat and without raised edges for optimal freedom of movement

✅ Specially selected foam to encourage motor development safely

Also designed by a mum, it is adaptable, portable and practical, ideal for everyday family life.

What is the life mat made of?

2 foam pieces (or 3 for the king-size format) protected by non-removable waterproof mattress covers

A cover fitted with 2 zips to insert each foam piece (+ one cover for the extension on the king-size format)

An XXL tote bag included to take it everywhere

How did we choose this foam?

With the help of early childhood professionals, to ensure it meets the babies' motor development needs :

✔ Thickness: 2.5 cm

✔ Firm: so baby can feel every surface properly

✔ Soft: to absorb any bumps

✔ Optimal density: for maximum durability (and just as much comfort for the parents too!)

Which life mat should you choose?

Spoilt for choice and not sure which life mat to pick? Let us help you see things more clearly 😊

Two main criteria to consider: the size and the fabric.

Which size should you choose?

Our life mat comes in two sizes:

Standard size: 120 × 120 cm – made up of 2 foam pieces and 1 zip cover
King size: 180 × 120 cm – the standard mat + a 60 × 120 cm extension which attaches with a press-stud system

💡 No stress: you can absolutely start with the standard size and add the extension later. All our standard covers are already fitted with press studs to accommodate an extension whenever you like.

Which fabric should you choose?

Two types of covering are available for our life mat covers:

✅ Our fabric zip covers (machine washable)

Available in 3 versions, depending on the feel you prefer:

Organic cotton: "shirt fabric" feel

Organic sweatshirt fabric: "soft sweatshirt" feel

Cotton-linen: "slightly textured" feel

👉 The back of these covers is made from water-repellent coated canvas, durable and suited to outdoor use.

Care: removable covers with zip fasteners, machine washable at 30°C, air dry (Cotton / cotton-linen: dries in around half a day; Sweatshirt fabric: allow a full day)

✅ Our waterproof zip covers

Covering leather effect (front and back)

Super easy to clean with a sponge (machine washing not recommended)

Want to go bigger later?

Good news: all our zip covers are sold individually, which lets you update your life mat over the years, to suit your décor tastes and needs. Head to the next question to find out more about our flap covers

Can you tell us more about the flap cover system?

At Mèzamé, we designed the life mat so it grows with you for a long time, and above all adapts to your child's development.

That's where the idea for flap covers: covers that are placed in a matter of seconds, like a exercise book cover, directly on top of the mat.

The idea? No need to take everything apart — just add a layer of exploration, play, protection or softness depending on the moment:

🧸 Activity covers: sensory for babies, a racing circuit, a wonderland to discover animals, a colouring sheet for budding artists, or in the city for the big imaginers.

💧 Waterproof covers: perfect for messy activities, a snack or a trip outdoors.

☁️ Fluffy covers: for those winter days when all you want to do is cosy up.

One mat, endless ways to play, explore, protect… and wonder.

📌 The flap cover is designed for the standard mat size (120x120), but the extension can be added by fastening the central press stud to expand the play area.

⚠️ Exception: the fluffy cover comes in standard and king-size versions.

What is the difference between a waterproof zip cover and a waterproof flap cover?

Great question! Both are waterproof and designed to handle messy activities, spilled snacks, chaotic DIY sessions or outdoor adventures. But they work a little differently:

🔁 The waterproof zip cover

It's the main zip cover of your life mat. You insert each foam panel and voilà, your mat becomes fully waterproof since it uses the same fabric on both sides. Perfect for stress-free everyday use!

➕ The waterproof flap cover

It is sits on top of your mat, like a book cover. Its front is made from waterproof fabric and its flaps from water-repellent coated canvas, perfect for those one-off moments: an art session, a suspiciously runny fruit pouch, or a trip outdoors. And once you're done, it comes off in three seconds and you're back to your lovely soft fabric mat.

In a nutshell:

– Zips = continuously waterproof

– Flaps = waterproof on demand

How do I care for my waterproof mat or cover?

To care for your waterproof mat or cover, we recommend a sponge cleaning with water and, if necessary, a suitable antiseptic product.

⚠️ Machine washing is not recommended.

📌 Precautions when exposed to water:

✔️ If your cover or mat has been exposed to a lot of water, we recommend that you remove the cover from your life mat and allow the foam pieces air dry to avoid any moisture. Indeed, a slight water infiltration may occur at the seams.

✔️ For the waterproof cover, also make sure it is completely dry before storing it to avoid any moisture build-up.

📦 Long-term storage:
If your waterproof cover is not permanently in use on the mat, it
is best to store rolled up to prevent
the appearance of marbling marks.

👉 If marks appear, they may fade with a quick iron
on the reverse side.

Is the life mat really safe for my baby?

Absolutely — and it's actually our number one priority. We know you're trusting us with what matters most to you, so we are uncompromising when it comes to the safety and quality of our products.

✔️ Designed with the experts

The life mat (including the sensory cover) was developed in collaboration with early childhood professionals, to meet the real needs of babies from their very first months.

✔️ Quality materials

All our materials are Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified, free from harmful substances, gentle on skin and safe for little ones.

✔️ Laboratory-tested safety

Our mats go through the safety standards applicable to toys for children under 3 years of age, tested and validated by an independent laboratory.
