AirPlay™ Tray Cover Set for Flight from Star Kids Products

Denver, CO – (December 22, 2009) – MILES OF SMILES! Star Kids Products today announced that it is prepared to handle your child’s in-flight entertainment needs with the nationwide availability of its new AirPlay™, a play center sleeve for infants and toddlers that conveniently slides over any airplane seat tray table.

The AirPlay (recommended for ages 6 months – 24 months, MSRP $24.99) is an all-inclusive, double-sided, self-contained activity center that fits snuggly over most airline tray tables. It has different features on each side so that a child can play whether the tray is down or stowed in its upright and locked position.

The brightly colored, wipe-off poly-cotton tray cover is full of exciting and educational activities for babies.

Creators and sisters, Jennifer Gilbert and Suzie Whitson, saw the need to create the AirPlay when, after an exhausting flight with her 16-month-old daughter, Gilbert found herself playing the roles of mother, comedian, clown, singer, and yoga instructor to try to keep her toddler entertained and quiet.

The sister team, drawing on their 20+ years of experience in education, created the concept for the AirPlay as an easily portable, entertaining play center designed especially for toddlers and young children on the go.

They joined forces with Alyson Probst , President of Star Kids Products, makers of the successful Snack & Play Travel Tray, and the AirPlay was born. Together, they were diligent to make sure that the components of the AirPlay would be made of child-safe materials, and the activities would be age appropriate for engaging fun, as well as facilitate important motor skill development and provide sensory input needs.

The product is a uniquely designed resource that features a complete assortment of entertainment and wonder. Elements of the AirPlay include a crinkle strip, repositionable geometric shapes, different color ball beads; and an oversized buckle, button and zipper for small hands to operate; as well as a peek-a-boo mirror; photo album; a mesh pocket that contains a soft dog character rattle toy.

For Star Kids Products, the new AirPlay is a perfect complement to the company’s best-selling, parent-praised Snack & Play Travel Tray, developed by Probst in 2006. The Snack & Play Travel Tray (MSRP $19.99) is also an affordable, lightweight portable product for children. With a universal fit for use with any child seat, car seat, booster or stroller, the Snack & Play provides a flat, bordered surface that is hard enough for coloring and rolling cars, and soft enough to be safe and comfortable for the child. It comes complete with attached mesh, elastic side pockets for additional snacks and toys to be stored within easy reach for the child. The product solves the problem of a child repeatedly dropping items; a toy rolling out of reach; or messy food spilling in any direction.
