My son absolutely loves this mat!!. This is his favourite one 10/10
My 2 and a half year old is loving colouring in all the bugs and different bits and pieces with all of the bright colours. The textas are easy for him to hold, colour well and survive his sometime full on colouring.
Incredible tool to help small children with writing/manual dexterity We have been working with my 3 year old on writing letters and this is absolutely the cats pyjamas. Only thing I would do differently is have the letters in alphabetical order but honestly - itโs an amazing tool.
Subject: Follow-Up: Extremely Disappointed by Lack of Response Hi there, Iโm following up on my email below, which I sent on 24 August, as I have never received any response from HeyDoodle. Outlook.pdf I have to say, I am extremely disappointed by this. I took the time to write a detailed and genuine complaint because I have invested a considerable amount in HeyDoodle products and have otherwise really loved the brand, particularly the silicone mats. Outlook.pdf I raised a legitimate concern regarding the colouring pens, the difficulty of removing the ink, and the fact that I have now discovered your newer washable, non-toxic pens. I also specifically asked what HeyDoodle would be prepared to do for existing customers, particularly those of us purchasing through Canada. To receive no acknowledgement or response whatsoever is incredibly disappointing and, frankly, not good enough from a customer service perspective. I would have expected considerably better, particularly given how much I have supported the brand and invested in your products. I am not someone who complains unnecessarily, and I deliberately contacted you directly because I genuinely like HeyDoodle and wanted to give you the opportunity to address my concerns properly. At the very least, I would expect my email to have been acknowledged and my concerns addressed. Ignoring a detailed customer complaint for this length of time does not leave a particularly positive impression. Please can someone please come back to me with a proper response and an explanation as to why my original email has gone unanswered, as well as what you are prepared to do to resolve this matter? I look forward to hearing from you promptly. Kind regards, Louisa Carroll

My kids love these! We use them all the time ๐คฉ
I can't wait for the kids to try out the sensory mats! We now have 10 mats and the kids choose a different one each time. Such a fantastic tool for kids when out and about
My kids absolutely love the Doodle mats! They will be so excited to try out the new sensory mats!

My toddler loves this mat and we use it for many activities, not just colouring. Have already recommended it to other people.
Busy Bugs = Busy Kids I love this new mat. The kids were right in to colouring it and exploring the patterns with both the markers and coloured water. It is a great addition to our Hey Doodle collection and has already been used on the go. I love that the design is not as intricate as others, making it easier for younger children to engage with.
Learning while having fun! What a great idea! Easy to use and when the young ones are not feeling well, a safe play time๐
Story time! My grand babies love them all! Time to sit and chat and draw! ๐ฅฐ
Highly recommend I have bought countless HeyDoodle mats and have always given them away as gifts before I've had a chance to gift one to my own daughter, well this time I gave it straight to her and I'm so glad I did. This mat is genius. There's so many ways to use it for play and learning. I love that it comes with a dropper too.
Excellent Just bought this to be gifted to a special family at some point
Excellent I gave this as a present to a young family with a little girl who's just starting to learn to draw and they were delighted
The gift that keeps on giving!! We received our first Hey Doodle mat just over a year ago and we honestly take it everywhere. When we take it out at restaurants the other tables always ask where we got it. We've bought lots since we've been given ours to give as gifts and parents are always grateful. Every kid needs a Hey Doodle mat! Ideal for restaurants and travel.
Great mats These mats are our go to now, for dinner or in cafes they are so handy and easy to carry because they are light and the fact they are reusable, big tick for the environment.
imperfect packaging had no effect Kids absolutely fighting over these, between my 1 and 5 year old.
Highly recommend! I bought this mat for my daughter but I think I enjoy it more than her! The smooth feeling of the textas against the silicone mat is so calming and I can bond with my daughter while colouring as well! The bonus is that my daughter actually enjoys cleaning it with a wipe when we are done!
Invisible imperfection We adore the hey doodle products & love the idea of sharing these for Christmas with all the kids this year. Took a chance on ordering the imperfect packaged products but could not notice where they were damaged. Very happy with the purchase!
Good as stocking fillers We bought heaps to gift our friends. You wonโt even find the imperfect packaging at all!
Amazing!! This mat is AMAZING! It is our 4th Mat and I see my son reaching for it over the ones as it has a new challenge for him, he loves to trace the letters again and again! ๐๐ป๐๐ป
If you're a mum with fussy eaters, you know the trick of 'hidden vegetables.' At HeyDoodle, we do the same with our matsโmore than just coloring, they're designed to educate through play.
