## Abstract

A foldable, collapsible lap tray or desk, with or without a cup holder, that can be embedded in a stuffed toy, backpack, or other portable flexible material. The tray is deployable by unlatching the stuffed toy, backpack, or flexible material which allows the tray or desk to unfold. The tray or desk is made of sturdy enough material to support playing, reading, writing, eating, or other activities related to sitting. The tray or desk can then be folded and secured for ease of transport. The tray is usually rectangular but can be styled in any shape desired.
