Compare the top 3 baby play mats in Australia 2026

For most families the Fisher-Price Kick and Play Piano Gym at about $75 is the one to buy - it is the iconic, trusted-brand activity gym with four ways to play as baby grows, a removable light-up piano and Smart Stages with more than 85 songs and sounds, which is why it is our top pick. If you want the best-value gym, the Blissful Diary Activity Gym at about $60 is an Amazon's Choice soft mat with stage-based hanging sensory toys for sight, hearing and touch. Need a cushioned floor for crawling and tummy time instead of an arch of toys? The Joypony Foldable Foam Mat at about $62 is a BPA-free XPE-foam mat that wipes clean. The Baby Einstein Busy Barnyard at about $71 transforms through four modes from newborn tummy time to a toddler road-play map, with 30-plus songs along the way. For a foam mat that also walls up into a contained play arena, the Infantino 2-in-1 XL Mat at about $88 is the pick, and the premium choice is the Ingenuity Cozy Spot Reversible Duvet Gym at about $114, an ultra-plush machine-washable gym with a wooden toy bar.
