Bargain Messy Mat

**Lainey Lou** · 03-09-2009, 03:44 PM

Hiya, I've been looking everywhere for a really cheap shower curtain to use in messy play as I don't think the messy mats you can buy are big enough. Anyway found what I was looking for in Asda - 95p (bargain), used it today when we were doing water play indoors and it was fab, kept the floor dry and as it was so big didn't have to worry about water running over the edge onto the wooden floor. Gonna get a couple more so always have them in.

That is such a good idea!

Thanks for sharing

wow. what a good idea. i'd never have thought of a shower curtain and if you buy the fabric kind, rather than plastic, they'd be machine washable too!

thanks!

I buy the Ikea ones which are about the same and they wash ok.

I have wooden floors and they make such a difference!

I could do with something under the little ones when they eat in the living room though... thank you for the tip!
