From a Flickr gallery (Sylkwan)… There is little description provided on what this photo is all about. But this seems like a playground kids in this area love to hang around at, their own mattress playground.

It’s a powerful photo that can pretty much inspire you to enjoy the simplest things or to be aware of the world around you.

Here’s one opinion from someone who has used a waterproof crib mattress pad.

Too bad there was no mention of the actual product’s name though.

The baby’s play area serves two purposes — play and rest.

These materials have been shown to release or “leach out” potentially harmful chemicals such as phthalates and PBDEs (read the Five Problems With Crib Mattresses). Organic crib mattresses do not contain these chemicals. They offer a healthy and safer alternative to conventional crib mattress offerings.

From the Mama’s & Papa’s store, this changing mattress goes very well with their entire Nostalgia collection.

Inflatable mattresses are great for when you’re having guest sleeping over. However, it’s not so great when you let a tiny baby sleep on it.
