I always love the idea of making homemade gifts for parents and grandparents every year.
Yes, I love the idea. However, I rarely actually follow through with that idea…
This is something I could follow through with though. I am so stoked to share these car play mat t-shirts from our sponsor, BKY Kid!
These would make a perfect gift for Mom or Dad, or even Grandma or Grandpa!
Its kind of three gifts in one t-shirt.
- For the adult that wears it
- But also for the kids to play with
- Which creates the ultimate gift of all, their time spent together.
I’ve had my eyes on making one of these for the longest time. I’ve pinned them and shared them, and have thought they were just plain genius.
But making one…. that seemed just too daunting to me. How would I ever draw on a t-shirt smoothly? Have you ever tried drawing on fabric? I swear, its nearly impossible.
These are the perfect answer.
You can purchase your own car play mat t-shirts in the BKY Kid Etsy Shop. Or enter to win one of your choice in the giveaway listed below.

For 15% off any t-shirt use code HANDSON15 or buy 2 or more adult shirts and get 20% off with code HANDSON20
Both codes expire December 12, 2014. Use your code here.
They have regular car play mats t-shirts for men, women and even kids.
And then some really cool designs like the one shown above on my husband. 3…2…1 Blast Off!
What makes these really special is the story that comes with each shirt.
You read along to the kids as they’re driving over the roads on your shirt.
I especially love the Number Tracing T-Shirt.
It even has starting points and little arrows to show the correct way to make the numbers.
But the story is even better, rhyming and showing the way to form the letters in a fun way for the kids.
George really got a kick out of the story and wouldn’t move onto the next number until I read it all.
He’d tell me the number, I’d read the story about the number as he traced along. Its so cute! And a great way to practice number recognition, not to mention writing.
Now its time for some fun, of course! As promised, I have a BKY Kid T-Shirt to give away!

I would love to get the Train mat t-shirt for my husband and 2 year old son. We’re about to add a new baby to the family (I’m due in 6 days!) and I know my son will feel a little left out with all the attention going to a new baby. I think he would love if daddy had a cool shirt just for him that he could push his trains around on! In fact, the matching kid/parent t-shirts would be even cooler. I know he would be so proud to have his shirt match daddy’s :)
