This tray provides a safe surface your child can use for snacking, reading or playing in the car. The bottom portion that rests against your child's lap is made of soft foam for comfort and safety; the side walls around the perimeter of the tray top are also padded, and will help keep things from sliding off as your child is using them. It can be used with most forward-facing car seats and comes with easy-to-install adjustable side straps. The removable tray insert is dishwasher safe and the rest is surface-washable vinyl.
