Holidays with the extended family mean that the 9 grandkids are in the same house and whilst most of them are now old enough to sit at the table at mealtimes, the younger baby had been banished to a traditional highchair. That is, until Nana purchased a K&D Design kid’s booster seat.

Its a basic adjustable seat with tray. Can be adapted to 3 levels to suit the growing child. Its very easy to put together and to take apart for cleaning when the inevitable spillages occur. It attaches using straps to the back and base of an ordinary dining chair and so the child is seated at the dining table and part of the whole family for meals.

The tray can be removed if desired and the whole assembly is plastic, easy to clean and lightweight, thus ensuring its fairly portable.

Available from Argos and similar baby equipment outlets from around €20. Recommended.
