A cute jersey cover with a print of teddy bears that fits perfectly around your changing mat is the most practical basic in your layette. The fabric is soft and stretchy. Thanks to the elastic around the edge, the cover will stay properly in place around the cushion. And with this fun Teddy Bear print, it will also look cute and beautiful. Without a cover, the changing mat is pretty cold, and the plastic is not very comfortable. A loose towel will slip off, and it won't cover the edges. A standard hydrophilic cloth is too small and too thin to cover the changing mat properly. This changing mat cover will stay firmly in place, like a fitted sheet. You can easily wash it, and it will make your baby (and you) feel comfortable. Doesn't that sound great? We recommend buying multiple covers. There will always be at least one cover in the laundry.
