Abstract

A tray for use on the lap of a person for supporting a small bet or use in activities such as card games, writing, etc. The lap tray is formed from an elongated, flexible plastic panel formed from a plastic such as high density polyethylene. The lap tray has a flat central portion with two intermediate portions extending from ends of the central portion at approximately 90.degree. to the central portions and two end portions extending from ends of the intermediate portions toward each other, approximately parallel to the central portion. The end portions can be manually spread apart and the tray placed over the thighs with the central portion across the thighs and the other portions around the legs. For storage, the end portions may be folded against the intermediate portions and the resulting assemblies folded against the central portion to form a relatively thin, flat package. If desired, suitable restraints, such as elastic bands, may be used to hold the package in the stored position. For use, the restraints are simply removed and the tray automatically returns to the use position. A tight fitting liquid absorbing fabric cover is preferably provided over tray.
