Question: When can I transition from a high chair to a booster seat?My son is 16 months old. He's a little small for his age, but he is not satisfied in his high chair any longer. Can I safely transition him into a booster chair?Answer: It probably seems like just yesterday you were strapping a barely steady baby into that high chair for his first taste of solids. While some children will continue to use a high chair happily and safely into the preschool years, others need to move on much earlier. A booster chair can be a good option for a toddler who wants to eat at the table just like everyone else in the family but who isn't tall enough or balanced enough to sit in a regular chair.Before you choose a booster seat, however, consider whether it offers the right support for your child and will work with your dining area and family eating habits. Here are some important fact to consider as you weigh the pros and cons of a booster chair.Your Child's Size and Stage of DevelopmentWell before their first birthday, most babies might be able to use booster chairs as long as they are able to sit up steadily on their own.
However, some booster seats have little all-around support and may not be appropriate for young toddlers. For instance, travel boosters do not usually have a front tray or lock-in system, which can help smaller toddlers and babies keep themselves upright.Most children are steady enough for all types of boosters by 18 months of age. What you have to also consider, though, is that larger toddlers may be too big for some booster seats. If your child is strong enough to wiggle the booster forcefully (which can loosen the safety straps securing it to the dining chair or move a non-strap booster), you may need to forget this option altogether. Don't worry, though, there are choices available for larger toddlers and young preschoolers, including:Your Toddler's DispositionFor a toddler who doesn't like to be held down, a booster seat can offer a little more sense of freedom and equality with the rest of the family since they are pushed right up to the table.The new-found joy of being fully included can actually help you deal with some challenging behaviors such as food fussiness or dinner-time tantrums.
Getting rid of the high chair may also be a good idea if you have a climbing toddler. Little ones are often tempted to scale the sides of high chairs that can easily fall over. Or your child may like to climb into and out of the seat himself, which can be dangerous. Even with a booster, you need to be vigilant when you have a climber. Your toddler might easily be able to climb into his booster. But once up there, he is at great risk of falling both while sitting and while trying to get back down. Luckily, boosters can easily be removed from your dining chair and stored in a safe place between meals and snacks to eliminate the temptation. Table and House Set UpKeep in mind that you need a specific type of set up to use a booster safely:Clean UpIf part of your frustration with the high chair is tied to the nearly impossible mission of cleaning it completely, know that the booster makes the chore much easier.With typical models of high chairs, you're left with straps that you somehow need to scrub and soak in order to remove traces of the oatmeal that came back up and crevices that hold fossilized crumbs of cookies and Cheerios.With the typical model of the booster, you can put the entire seat into the sink for a hose down.
