2.0 out of 5 stars Not such a great idea, July 23, 2003

I was so excited to see this mat I thought that it would be great to use with the wooden airplanes and buildings. I cannot understand why this mat was not made to accomodate the buildings/planes that are made for the wooden set (,planes, hangers, firehouse etc.) The mat should be a runway without airplanes and buildings pictured so that it could actually be played with. If anything they should have drawn dotted lines for where to place buildings that you have. What are you supposed to do with the wooden buildings that you have they do not fit on the mat. The planes can actually go inside the wooden hangers(more fun than a flat mat). Though the hangers are too small to accomodate all the planes(example the kids hanger....only two fit not three) It does make a nice, expensive rug or door mat for decoration though.

I felt "jipped" to receive what is basically a printed doormat for the $... I paid.

2.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't add much to the play experience, February 17, 2004

My 2-1/2 year-old son received this for Christmas along with three of the plane characters and one of the hangars. The play mat is very cute, but it basically just acts as a storage area in our living room for the toys. He never uses it to actually play with the planes in terms of running them down the roadways, etc. It is durable enough, but I would say it's a waste of money.
UPDATED: My son is now 4-1/2, and actually uses the play mat more now than he did before. He must have been too young to grasp the idea of it, but now he's using it like it's intended. I guess it was a good buy after all!
