The pros of booster seats

A highchair is a tall chair which stands placed on the floor on its own legs. A booster highchair seat is a short seat that needs to be attached to an existing dining chair. Both a traditional highchair and a chair booster seat can be used from around six months or whenever your sweetheart can confidently hold his or her head up by themselves. 

Here are some of the excellent reasons why you might choose a table booster seat for dining table meals instead of a highchair. 

• Booster seats are versatile. Most can be used up at the dining table for meals and creative play or popped on the floor as a secure play and relaxation seat. 
• They may not be as roomy as a highchair but they are portable so you can use them throughout the home. Some can even be folded up and used for travel, visiting friends and relatives or eating out at a restaurant. 
• A booster is much easier to clean thoroughly than a highchair. If it gets really yukky, just take it to the bathroom for a good hose down with the power shower. 
• Their size makes them a great option for a small home or dining room/kitchen. 
• If you are on a budget, a booster seat is a much cheaper option. Even the most luxurious cost £60 at the most and good quality mid-range products will be £20-£25. 

Find the best baby booster seat and the best toddler booster seat– the features you should be looking for. 

• A toddler booster seat for eating needs to be easy to clean, during weaning and creative play, things can get messy! Look for a seat that has few nooks and crannies, is dishwasher safe and has removal, washable covers. 
• A high chair booster seat should be light and compact. You could decide to buy a sturdier one for permanent mealtime use at home and a portable one for visiting, eating out and holidays. 
• Pick the correct product for the age of your child. A baby chair seat will have lots of safety features. A toddler booster seat for table eating may just be a piece of wipeable foam that lifts a slightly too small child to the correct height for enjoying a meal with their family. 
• Some boosters come with a removable tray, if this is the case then the ability to give it a hot wash in the dishwasher is a brilliant feature. 
• Any plastic should be certified BPA free. 
• Lots of adjustability in the harness and attaching straps means it will fit most ages of baby and designs of chair.
