Do not throw away your used pilates/yoga mat!
Great for pets to sleep on (washable). Leave in car for picnics, outdoor concerts, sit on folded to watch kids sports, and to let your pets sit on to keep hair off the seats. Cut your mat for outside waterproof table mats or coasters. Great to put in bath or shower for safety.
Can be used for kids crafts too.
