Is your 2 + year old still..

Using a high chair?
We got rid of ours in favour of a booster because Ella had learned how to undo the straps and was trying to climb out of it at every opportunity.
We then got rid of the booster because she learned how to undo the straps and would come and sit next to us on a regular chair on her knees anyway so it seemed a bit redundant.
Anyway, last night I was given a lecture about how 'She really should still be in a high chair' and it made me wonder how many kids her age still are?

Ramble over, lol

we sit at the coffee table in the lounge to eat....bad i know! anyway....jack has his own wee chair he sits in but if we do sit at the table, he sits in his high chair without the tray, so it's like sitting in a normal chair if you get what i mean?

No highchair, booster seat sometimes otherwise she sits on a normal chair.

Andrew has his own table and chair (as we don't have the space at the moment for a dining table) and has been sitting there since about 18 months old. He too could undo the straps and he ate at daycare at the table (had been since he was a year old) so it was easier for him to do the same at both places. In my opinion a highchair isn't for a 2 year old they like to be independant and letting them sit with you or at a special chair is great for them.

I got sick of having the great big hunk of high chair in the middle of our dining room so Han now sits on a normal chair... sometimes with a cushion. But that's more to stop her spilling food all over the chair than to prop her up. hehe

Ayja is still in a high chair.. she's 2 weeks younger than Harmony, but that's only for dinner time. Brekkie and lunch she has at the little table and chairs, both girls have one and they are good. We have a large xmas table cloth that is plastic backed (the "messy mat") which goes down under the tables or under the highchair and paris's table.

Paris was about the same age. I mean brekkie and lunch are usually les messy so we started with those.. plus, really, dinner is when you really want to sit and relax and enjoy your meal and at the mo, Ayja is still too monkey-ish to be able to sit still and wait for us to clean her up - if she was at a table and chairs she'd just get up and run away in the middle of us eating dinner.

It's up to you really. but no, I don't think she should still be in a highchair unless there is a reason for it (he he, ie entrapment) if she's doing well without then don't worry about it.

With Ashlyn I cant remember when we really stopped using highchair but it was great for really messy stuff and when I needed to get something done and wanted to know where she was so she was too young to let herself out. Anastasia only gets put in highchair if we are all eating at the same time or I need her to be restrained while getting things done. Karl doesnt get home till after 6.30 and I like to have the girls fed by then if poss. so its more of a mothers-aid than anything. Although when Ashlyn is tired she wants to go into the highchair instead of Anastasia. We got a great set of chairs and table from Ikea while in Sydney, the legs flare slightly so they are a bit more stable and its a perfect hight for them both. Very sturdy, chairs hold adults easily

i need to get a lil table an chair set for harms.xander had one but it got a lil too cozy with the heater and melted one leg off the table lmao

Haleigh's 16 months and is in her highchair but I only do it cuase we dont have a dinnert table and I want her to sit while eating, even though she knows how to undo herself and escape (she escapes form anything she's strapped into). We are looking into buying ehr her own table and chairs to sit at.
