We are off on hols with our 15 month old shortly, and know there is no high chair where we are going.


I have one of the cloth ones, which does not always seem to do the trick with us. Are there "travel" high chairs on the market, and if so , what would you recommend (ideally that packs away quite small).


Thanks

I'd second the handysitt. I'm a recent convert to them and can't praise them highly enough. We've also used the cloth wraparound ones which were fine when he was much younger, but no good for a strong toddler, and I've always been afraid to leave him unattended in it. (probably due to the fact that the one time I did he fell out!)


They aren't the cheapest, but my niece is now 4.5 and has only just stopped using hers so I don't think it's bad value for money.

Hi - we have 2(!) - a phil and teds which is great but doesn't fit on all tables, and a softer one from mothercare/jojos - perhaps this one, which is good as fits on most chairs and quite easy to chuck in the bottom of the buggy - it lifts them up just a bit more than the cloth ones. Saved out lives in Spain this year as nowhere seemed to have high chairs!
KBN - we found where we were (andalucia) NONE of the cafes or restaurants had high chairs at all - it was really weird - they seemed to expect you to feed your child in the buggy....not remotely possible the way baby snowboarder eats!! They looked at us in amusement when we whipped out our travel high chair!! So would recommend getting one as easy as poss to carry around...

We got this one for going on hols this year.

It's not as light as the blow up ones but we found them a little scary as our LO gets bigger and more mobile - the sides seemed a little insecure. We liked this one as it was stronger and hence we felt better for a full 2 weeks of constant use but still portable. A little fiddly to clean if food gets in the seams but easy enough to take apart to clean.

    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
    • Best you post when you have an idea of dates  - waste  of everyone’s time
    • Hi there,  Looking for 10-12 jars (to start with) of local honey to fill a small section of a deli space in my work canteen. Please get in touch if you know of any community projects/small scale productions Cheers
    • Yeah, it did work out in the end, but it was way more stressful and expensive than it needed to be. He lost money. He had higher offers early on, but those buyers pulled out because of all the delays. On top of that, he spent a fortune on legal fees trying to get the neighbour to sign off on the freehold transfer. It dragged on for ages. In the end, he was lucky the final buyer stuck with it, but the price was lower, and the whole thing left a bad taste. A lesson learned. Share of freehold can be a real nightmare if the other owners aren’t cooperative. You’ve got to be 100 per cent sure everyone’s reasonable, otherwise it’s just not worth the hassle.
