Abstract
A toy storage cover for a portable play yard is described. The toy storage cover includes four outer panels shaped to surround the outer walls of the play yard attached at their top edges to four inner panels shaped to line the play yard. A floor panel joins the inner panels and is secured to the floor of the play yard by a mattress pad shaped to fit within the inner panels above the floor of the play yard. A series of pockets are attached to the outer panels of the cover. The pockets have smaller pockets within them or on their outer surfaces. Tie-down straps, fitted foot pockets or attachments through the play yard walls are used to secure the cover to the play yard. The toy storage cover may be adapted to play yards of various designs, cribs or other open topped containers. A collapsible container, sized and shaped to fit between the inner and outer panels will include slots near its base to permit an attachment strap, attached at its first end to the lower surface of the floor panel, to pass through the wall of the container. The attachment strap includes means to removably fasten its second end to one of the interior or exterior surfaces of the outer panels. The collapsible container includes means to removably attach its side walls together for rapid assembly.
