Sooner or later, the time comes when the baby has to get used to eating independently. The first step to this will be mastering a baby feeding chair. There are many different models, but among them you need to choose the one that suits your child.
Instructions
Step 1
Determine the type of chair that your baby needs. Here you need to take into account all the nuances: the age of the child, the availability of free space in the kitchen, the design of the chair, the price.
Step 2
Decide what material you want your baby's feeding chair to be made of. It can be plastic, wood or chipboard. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. The tree is definitely more environmentally friendly. Also, in comparison with some other plastic models, its price is much lower (especially for models from domestic manufacturers). Plastic is easier to clean, which means that even the baby himself can wipe his chair. Chipboard products are even cheaper than wooden ones, but chips and scratches on them can lead to harmful fumes from the constituents of the glue, which holds the chipboard contents together.
Step 3
If a simple feeding chair is not enough for you, choose the popular table-chair model. It can be foldable or not. The non-folding version of this product is usually more monumental and solid. Foldable is more elegant, and its quick transformation from a highchair to a free-standing children's chair and table is a great option for budget-conscious parents.
Step 4
Consider options with a reclining chair back, because babies can not sit on a high chair right away. And this model will make it possible to feed the baby in a reclining position.
Step 5
See if this model has a removable tray with plate and mug compartments.
Step 6
Pay attention to the reliability of the mechanisms, their fastening, and the ease of use of the chair. Evaluate how smoothly the chair mechanism adjusts. Check the presence and strength of the retainer to prevent the child from slipping out of the chair. See if safety belts are available and how reliable. Check what material the seat of the chair is made of. It will be better if the material is non-slip and easy to clean.
Step 7
Place your baby in the feeding chair. He should feel comfortable and comfortable. The chair should please the child.
Step 8
Ask the seller for a quality certificate for the selected model. A chair for feeding a child must meet all sanitary and hygienic requirements.
