1. Be sure that the straps are nice and snug but give your child enough room to be comfortable. 2. Use the high chair only for meals to keep its use routine. 3. Do not use the lap table as its own restraint. The table is not a secure strap, and you won’t want your child to fall out of the chair. 4. Never leave the child unattended in the high chair. 5. Don’t let your child stand in the high chair. 6. Distance the high chair far enough away from the table that they can’t use their legs to knock over the chair. 7. For foldable high chairs, be sure that every part is locked into place before placing your child in the seat.

Cut two tie-strips 19 cm (7.5") by 1 metre (40"). Hem or zigzag all edges of remaining piece. 3. At one short side of your large rectangle, bring sides in to meet at center front and sew along each edge of angle formed. 4. Fold each tie-strip in half, right sides together. Sew 1 cm (1/2") seams along long edge and one short end. Turn right way out, tuck in and finish last short edge. 5. Center one tie-strip at each short end of larger piece and top-stitch or zig-zag in place.
