The portable high chair is one of today’s seemingly minor, yet extremely convenient inventions, especially for mothers on the go. Unlike the old high chairs, some of which were also semi-portable in the sense that the legs could be folded up, the new innovations in high chairs are lightweight, some can even be collapsed and packed away in bags. This makes it very ideal for families who have to eat out and can’t afford to leave their baby at home, and many restaurants do not have more than a couple of high chairs in stock.
Ironically, portable high chair is usually made from materials that are not as durable as the stay-home chairs. Typically one that is portable will be made from thick plastic with a few metal pieces where non-portable ones can be made from plastic, metal or even wood. Some of these chairs will look like a car seat that got stuck on some taller legs. A high chair that is portable will often have wheels and a few extra bells and whistles to keep a baby busy while everyone else eats a meal. The wheels help the parents move the chair around as is needed. The extra items might simply be an extra strap or two to keep the baby in their seat or they might be built in toys to play with.
Make sure that the seat belts of the portable high chair are easy to put on, so that you are able to do it with one hand, keeping the other firmly on the child to support him. Inspect the portable high chair for small parts that can be detached. Babies have the natural tendency to put anything small enough in their mouths. In this event, the child might swallow or choke on the object.
