Try giving it a couple washes (maybe with softener) sometimes like bedding they take a little work to be softer 🙂
i’d recommend washing before purchasing something else, if after washing they aren’t to your liking you could always keep a playmat/picnic blanket instead x

I have bought a soft one and surprisingly it was from primark!
