Star Kids Snack & Play Travel Tray

It's simple, light weight and it helped entertain my 2yr old on a 10 hour roadtrip! Very easy to use!

The tray is a bit soft for writing but that is easily remedied by using a writing pad or putting a book under the paper. It is a minor trade off for a tray that is safer in the event of an accident. My kids used it for drawing, playing w/ toy cars, and eating. The pockets on the sides are great for markers, etc. The tray doesn't fit close to the body on either of my kids' car seats but it didn't seem to bother them too much. I put a folded towel under one of them to help keep it level. It isn't perfect but it works well considering it is a safer option than a rigid tray.

I purchased two of these trays for my daughters, ages 3 and 18 months. We went on a road trip and I thought it would be a good way for them to be able to color or prop up their books. The sides worked great to keep the markers from rolling off the tray; however, because of how they buckle around the child, this caused the tray to tilt, so the markers easily fell down around their waist and into their carseats. My 3 year old didn't care and enjoyed using the tray; my 18 month old got frustrated with it, which is understandable given her age. I think they'll function better as the girls get older and transition to booster seats.

This is a great product. My two year loves using this to color and do other activities while we travel. We use it in the car and on airplanes. It could be a little sturdier, but it hasn't bothered him at all. Sometimes it bends in the middle when he is putting pressure on it. It does fold quite well. It is still a bit bulky, but I am able to get it into the diaper bag.

We got this product for our 1 year old becasue we take alot of long car trips, i went back and forth between this and the hard plastic version and chose this for the saftey rated crash test...it is soft and would just crumble down, where as the hard plastic trays would cause injury. The mesh pockets are nice on the sides and the try is pretty good over all, but it does not sit flat and the items slid back toward the child and fall down through the cracks if they are small...
