portable boosters
1 This folding booster has three height adjustments and a removable tray with three tummy adjustments to make way for growing tots. It includes a three-point harness, removable back and tray for older kids and shoulder straps and a snap-on cover for easy travelling. Healthy Care Booster Seat, $40, Fisher-Price. 2 This European-designed portable high chair fits nearly every dining table chair and at just five pounds, it’s easy to take to grandma’s or on a family trip. Folding Wooden High Chair, $159, HandySitt.1 “This seat is great—it is stable on almost any chair, easy to clean and very portable. We use it for Pieter with the tray on; he loves being able to sit at the same level at the dinner table with us. Willem also uses it without the tray and seems quite comfortable.”
Shelley Dennis, mom of Willem, 2, and 10-month old Pieter, Toronto
2 “Very smart, innovative and visually appealing. It worked on our chair at home and we took it to a restaurant and it worked nicely there as well. I liked the colours too; they were more adult-friendly than some other booster seats out there.”
Paul Robinson, dad of Sienna, 1, Edmonton
