GEARING UP (Travel Column, 10/8/2006)
"As tough as it is to drive with a cellphone pressed against an ear, try taking a road trip with the toddler frustrated 10 miles into the trip because all 48 crayons from the box are on the floor behind the driver's seat, and he's going to scream at windshield-shattering decibels until you pick them up while passing that semi at 70 mph on I-70. Thank Denverite Alyson Probst, who invented the Snack & Play Travel Tray, which won Whirlpool's Mother of Invention Contest and a place in our hearts for coming up with a washable, soft-sided nylon tray that buckles to a car seat, stroller or even around a kid sitting down. It has a side pocket for snacks, toys, books, whatever, and a 2-inch- high border that keeps stuff from falling off the edge. The 18-inch-by-14-inch flat surface is sturdy enough to hold a coloring book or a plate of food, and the whole thing cleans easily. You can even take it on an airplane and avoid the whole "tray table in an upright position" for kids who want to stay occupied during takeoff."
Says:
"The Snack & Play Travel Tray is a soft foam nylon tray that buckles around the child, the car seat or the stroller and provides a surface for snacking or playing in the backseat of a car, or even on an airplane. Best of all, there's a 2-inch wall around the edges to prevent toys and food from falling off, and two large side pockets for storage of drinks and toys. In an emergency, the tray collapses on impact. The tray retails for $19.99, and is available at www.BabyAbby.com , www.familyonboard.com, and www.starkidsproducts.com".
"I was tired of the constant dropping of food and toys and asking mom to pull over and the screaming bloody murder until you did,"
The tray wipes clean and comes with side pockets where cups, snacks, story books and crayons can be kept.

"Keep 'em busy in the car.
Kids on long car rides get antsy. Snack and Play travel tray, made from durable foam, holds toys and snacks that can help keep a child busy. The tray has a 2-inch high edge around it to help keep things corralled. The tray has large side pockets for storage."
Says:
"Snack easily in the backseat!
Snack & Play Travel Tray is perfect for keeping kids fed in the backseat, in strollers, and even on the airplane! Made of soft, durable foam and 100% Nylon, this gadget buckles around the child, car seat, or stroller for easy on and off. It even has a 2-inch wall around the edges to prevent food from falling off and includes large side pockets for easy storage of food, drink, and toys."
Says:
"With the school holidays upon us, long car journeys loom large. This travel tray, which attaches to a car seat or buggy to provide a play surface, is made of foam, so it would collapse safely in a collision. It has two large side pockets for toys and food."
Says:
Another useful item, says McCarthy, is the new Snack & Play, a fold-up travel
tray made of nylon that buckles around the child and folds down to the size of
a magazine. "It gives kids a work area in front of them that can hold crayons, or a cup or a couple of Tonka toys," she says. "And it weighs nothing."
Says:
"If only you had a way for him to sit and be occupied for just a few minutes! (I’ll take a few seconds). Well you should try Snack & Play’s portable travel tray. It can go just about anywhere, from your car seat to your stroller or even a basic chair without a table. You can easily store your child’s coloring books, crayons, juice, and a favorite toy. The tray is easy to clean and has a rim to protect most toys from falling off. "
Says:
"A happy child makes a happy parent. Well, at lease when you’re in the car together. To help aid in keeping parent’s sanity, and occupying kids during long driver, Star Kids has come up with the Snack & Play Travel Tray. Unlike many similar products on the market, this kid-friendly play table fastens around the child or the carseat, not across laps – which can be dangerous. Having recently passed crash testing, it’s easily removed in the case of an accident and made of soft nylon for minimum injury (and easy clean-up.) And when you finally reach your destination – simply detach and secure to the stroller. What could be easier? "
Says:
"It might have been inspired by a mother or just a requirement of busy family schedules, but the new Snack & Play Travel Tray makes commuting a little more involving for children – and simpler for the driver."
Says:
"...delay that inevitable "Are we there yet?" -- whether on a plane or in a vehicle.
This inexpensive item is made of foam and 100 per cent nylon, and buckles around a child, car seat, booster seat or even a stroller, providing a durable work surface surrounded by a five-centimetre wall to prevent items from falling off or liquid spills from getting to the upholstery or carpet. It also has side pockets for convenient storage.
Since it is so soft and collapses under load, there does not appear to be any safety concerns, provided the device is used with a properly fastened restraint system."
Says:
"Every parent faces the challenge of traveling with kids. Whether traveling to see family or on vacation kids can become restless. The handy Snack & Play Travel Tray is designed to help make your next family trip an entertaining one for kids. The Snack & Play Travel Tray is made of soft, durable foam and 100% Nylon, and buckles around the child, the car seat, or the stroller.
The beauty of the Snack & Play Travel Tray, which retails for under twenty dollars, is that can be used as a safe surface for kids to play with toys on and enjoy meals. The sidewalls of the Snack & Play Travel Tray help prevent the spill of crumbs. The award winning Snack & Play Travel Tray has been crash tested by a federally recognized laboratory for safety, and is great for car or plane trips, and playtime any time on-the-go. It versatile straps fits around most car and booster seats and has side pockets with a 2 inch wall to prevent items falling off."
Says:
"My compliments go to the inventor of this one. It is a practical gift to keep baby occupied during a car trip, without losing the toys, games and other amusements due to the car movement. It includes a side pocket to keep juice boxes, books, crayons and whatever else the kid needs to amuse him or herself on a long car trip. Mom and Dad can appreciate the quiet, instead of a scream, when baby drops his or her book with every bump in the road. Besides, don't you get tired of reaching behind the seat to find all the toys?"
Says:
"Your child is seated in his or her car seat and drops a toy. Tears ensue as you locate the toy while keeping an eye on the road. You hand it back and all is well once again. If this scenario is familiar, perhaps a Snack and Play Travel Tray is in order."
Says:
"Since Tim's the one who drives and I get the job of keeping the kids happy,
I'm the one who has to unfasten my seatbelt, wrench myself around, and lean
awkwardly into the back seat every 10 seconds to pick up books, markers, toy
pieces, and everything else the kids have accidentally dropped and are
screaming for. The Snack & Play Travel Tray -- a soft tray table, with
two-inch-high walls and mesh side pockets, that I buckle around Doug in his
car seat -- minimizes this droppage and (hopefully) teaches him to be more
organized.
Says:
"Consumer Center - Keeping kids occupied on a trip is always a challenge, especially when they're strapped into a safety seat. A strap-on flexible tray called the "Snack and Play Travel Tray" is designed to make trips neater and more fun. You just snap the strap around the child and they have a surface for drawing, playing, or eating; with edges to keep it all from rolling off."See article
