    Patching a Pac n Play?

    I have a pac n play that is in good condition except for a few small holes (starting to grow) in the mesh. They are small enough they are safe, but I would like to patch them before it becomes dangerous/unusable.

    Any suggestions?

    Licensing allows 2inch in diameter holes so I am within regs, but I want to get it fixed, patched before it gets worse

    Maybe heavy duty thread or some type of sport mesh?

      A Pack 'n Play is a portable play yard for a baby that can be used as a crib, bassinet and, with some models, a diaper changing table. It is safe for baby to play in while indoors or out. The sides are made of mesh, but the mesh can tear and create a small hole.

          I had that too and I just repaired it with a few pieces of dental floss.

          I am surprised licensing allows holes at all since a child could rip the hole bigger.

            That's what my licensor said to use.

            Mine doesn't. I had a couple of eraser-sized holes and got written up because the child could pick at it and make it big enough to be a strangling hazard. The child was 3 mos at the time so I figured I had a little time before it would be a danger.

              Holes or repairs would be a big fine here. Unsafe sleep environment. No modifications allowed to any crib or pac n play.
