Has anyone tried to glue the letters in place on the interlocking foam mats? I have covered my playroom floor with these lovely foam alphabet mats but the "letters" keep popping out and I'm forever treading on them to push them back down again. I want to glue the letters in but not sure if it would work or what type of glue to use?

Not quite sure Hun, I have the same in our playroom but ive just got used to popping them back in :)

If it helps, I know you can buy plain foam mats on eBay but I think the squares are bigger in size x

Could you use Gaffa Tape and tape them down on the underside?

You could glue a large square piece of card to the whole of the other side, this would prob give the glue a better hold & save you having to try doing it round the thin edges of the letters!:thumbsup:

Tape or card on the bottom is a good idea, but if not, tesco sell the bigger plain mats (60cm square) 4 for £7.50.

We just used duct tape on the back of each tile.

Ok well duct / gaffa tape it is then. OH said he will do it for me tomorrow, WITH the LO's still playing in there!!! Not sure how that will work but he seems to think it wont be a problem.

Thanks :thumbsup:
