Swimming is one of my favourite things to do with my baby. But when they fill their nappy while in the pool, it is inconvenient to go to the pool toilets to change them. This Splash About changing mat is therefore a perfect choice to change your baby by the pool. You can just lay out the mat and safely change your baby without them touching the floor by the poolside or in the changing rooms. If you’re short on space and have opted out of using a changing table, this pad may be the best solution. With its four raised sides, you don’t need a table, as this will fully cover any surface. When you’re done with it, you can simply stash it in a closet.
