Welcome to Tiny Town!

Tiny Town is designed to spark your child’s imagination and to create rich language development opportunities through play. When you’re not exploring the streets, this Tiny Town Messy Mat is perfect for picnics, nappy free time and messy play. It’s got you covered!

Messy Mats are absorbent play mats with a waterproof backing which stops liquids seeping through to the surface below. They're 150cm by 150cm, the perfect size for catching messes without taking up too much room. They're designed to make it easier for everyone to get messy without the stress. 

If messy mats had a middle name, it'd be 'multi-functional'. Use your messy mat under the high chair to catch spills, at the beach to dry wet bodies, over their mattress to catch accidents, for nappy-free time and for under the potty when your little one is toilet-learning. Best believe we cover our sofa with them when gastro is about. 

They're completely machine washable and come in a drawstring backpack, so you can quickly bundle them up and take them on the go. 

 Messy is best!

FAQs

Are Messy Mats reversible?

The underside of our mats are black. The waterproofing works in either direction so you may choose to use the mat with the black side facing up for any activities that you think could stain your Messy Mat.  

Do you retail in other stores?

Yes! Have a peek on our stockists page to see whether there's a store close to you. We're regularly updating and growing our stockists - reach out to your local store and ask them to stock Zazi if they don't currently. 

How do Messy Mats work?

Zazi Messy Mats have a quilted polyester top layer, a padded middle layer and a waterproof base. They're absorbent, so liquids can soak into the top two layers and then the waterproof base prevents liquids seeping through to the surface below. 

Are they big enough for our family?

Four people can sit on this mat comfortably. They're a great size for covering beds up to queen size as a mattress protector, or to fit under high chairs to catch food. They're wide enough for the messiest of messy play. 

How can I  use a Messy Mat for toilet-learning?

Stick your messy mat over your child's fitted sheet to catch any middle-of-the-night accidents and protect their mattress. It'll mean you can quickly strip the Messy Mat away and get everyone back to sleep without having to change the whole bed. 

You can also put your Messy Mat under your child whenever they're having nappy free time. Place their potty on the mat to catch any wayward wees!

How messy can I get on the Messy Mat?

The whole point of our messy mats is for you to get as messy as possible. We know that messy play is fantastic for many areas of development but often us parents hold back from messiness because we're worried about damaging our property or dealing with the clean up. 

The reality is that even 'washable' paints and dyes can stain fabric, so yes, our Messy Mats can be stained. PLEASE don't let that stop you from getting messy. Messy Mats are created to protect your property, so it's better that the mat is stained rather than your home. The more stained you can get your Messy Mat, the more fun we know you're having!

Do you ship overseas?

Yep! We ship worldwide! Reach out to us if you have any issues ordering to your country and we'll sort it. 

Will it stay waterproof?

As long as you're following the care instructions correctly, our Messy Mats will stay waterproof. Avoid hot washes and tumble drying as this can deteriorate the waterproof layer.
