I am doing away with the high chairs. I am moving to a child sized table instead. I have mixed ages, some can sit at the table and some are not able to sit without being strapped in. The booster seats I have do not fit on the small kid-sized chairs so I am looking for options on seating.

I have 12-15 month olds that need to be strapped. I was looking at these: http://www.discountschoolsupply.com/...?Product=29261

but am interested in seeing if someone else has something else that works?

I bought similar type chairs (without the trays) and they worked perfectly at my baby table. So much better than high chairs

Yes. I have these

I love them! They are also available at Walmart online and a few other places. Amazon had the best price.

Ive wanted one of those infant feeding tables where the seats are in the table.I would think it be easier than washing a bunch of high chair trays.

I wonder if anyone has put seat belts or strap s on regular kid chairs some how

Thanks, ladies.

So, being in Canada, those seats cost a small fortune. Triple the price with shipping.

I was thinking I should be able to get straps sorted out somehow but I did manage to get a booster seat to fit on one of the wooden children's chairs.... so that is what I am going with for now. Hopefully it works but I'm hanging on to the high chairs for the week just in case.

Thanks!

I bought wooden chairs and replacement straps for a high chair and screwed the straps into the chair. Worked great

I cut down wood restraunt high chairs to the shorter height to use with my child-height table.

I just switched, I had a space saver high chair. (bought used for $15, sold for $20 and bought one of this for USED $10) This one folds for storage and easy to clean.

Then sold my bumbo with tray (I did not like using it with the straps, it was to hard to buckle) (Bought for $25, sold for $20 bought one of this NEW for $28) Converts from a bumbo type seat to booster seat, easy to clean

I liked this one but went with the fisher price one instead.

I also use restaurant style boosters like this, but mine have straps. They are harder to clean but until I get another cooshee, I am keeping them for old kids when needed.

and a cooshee for my daughter (got this one on a good deal at a mom sale, for $2) easy to clean and stays put.

Then I use a restaurant type wooden high chair with chair cover.
I have 2 older booster seats that I have for sale, that fold up for storage but they are to hard to keep clean.

I really like the tot seat as I don't have to have a larger piece of equipment in the daycare. I just put it on an existing chair, and then throw it in the washing machine. Plus, it is pretty cheap, considering the prices of other options. You can use it as young as 9 months, I think.
