Booster chairs
Baby booster chairs typically attach to a dining chair to enable a small child to join the family dinner table at mealtime. While baby booster chairs provide seating capabilites for children, they can be at best only an inexpensive substitute for the baby highchair.
The booster chair is not a complete chair, but rather an additional seat that can be mounted and attached to an existing chair. Sitting your child in a booster seat requires you to dedicate one chair for this purpose, or to continually mount and dismount the device for each sitting.
Though many variations of baby booster chairs have become available in recent years, the question still remains: does the baby booster chair provide the functionality and support of a baby highchair?
As a fixed seat, the booster chair provides little or no adjustability, and does not allow you to adjust the height of the chair as your child grows and develops. Often, the booster chair does not include a footrest option so your child’s feet are not supported, leaving them dangling. Without complete support, your child is unable to move, shift their weight, or adjust theirposition; making them restless and uncomfortable when seated.
Though the booster chair can be considered as a seating option for your child, in truth, it does not provide a real alternative to the highchair. It is possible at best that the booster chair may be considered a substitute designed as a low cost, portable alternative to free-standing, fully-supporting highchairs.
