Baby Boom Elmo Travel Tray - STD7642

We bought this Elmo tray prior to making a 14 hour road trip with my 2 year old. We had her little Color wonder markers in the side pocket & she loved being able to use it! I liked the all soft surface because it was safe & kept the pieces of her activities together. Before we left I laid a heavy book on the tray on a flat surface to get the crease out of the middle (it's original package had it folded).

I bought this for a 10 hour trip for my almost 2 year old. He loves it but I don't think it is worth it. The 2" lip around the tray is the only good thing. We have been using it around town to test it out first. The tray has dinky clips that attach to the car seat cover so it can't be pulled too tight. It also leans down towards the feet not like the picture shows. The foam tray just isn't hard enough to stay upright. When my son plays with his trains, they keep sliding forward and he has to kick his feet up to make the tray slide them back to him. Doesn't seem to bother him. I think the Tabby tray is better because it is bigger and a harder surface. Haven't tried it with a coloring book yet but I think it might be difficult since the tray slopes down.
