This is a high chair. I repeat: a high chair.
Looks familiar? Of course it is. You can see this type of chair in any TV drama or film in which a baby is featured, or in some mommy blogs too.
Perhaps, many of us have been using high chairs to seat the baby while eating in fast food restaurants like McD, KFC or Pizza Hut. And, may also use the colorful back strap plastic high chairs like this one too.
But, how many of you have or actually use a high chair at home? I bet not many.
Some of you think that high chairs are a waste of money and space. And, all of the little nooks and crannies end up with food stuck in them. It’s just something that you could do without.
Well, for me it depends.
When your baby is about 6 months old, it’s time to introduce semi-solid food. Meaning, you need to feed the baby ok?
But, how to feed a little angel that can’t sit unsupported? You can either hold the baby while feeding, or buy a Bumbo Baby Seater like this!
Once she can sit well, you can use the walker.
But, there will come a time when baby is too big for the walker, but not tall enough or disciplined enough to sit in a regular chair at the table.
So, it’s time to get a high chair. So, baby can join the family at the table during meal time.
Tips for new parents.
- Feeding a baby in Bumbo Baby Seater is better than in a walker. Because, you can easily wipe clean all the messes from the rubber seater. Cleaning a walker is much harder since the seater usually made of cloth.
- There are many choices of high chair in the market. From the expensive RM600 each to cheapest RM30 one. The best is to find one that can be easily clean (not made of cloth). I highly recommend Ikea Antelop High Chair – very cheap (RM49 only!) for a high quality brand.
- If you have little space, you can also replace a high chair with a booster seat. It takes up less room since it’s strapped onto one of your dining room chairs.
Beside feeding, Izzah also uses the high chair for watching her Brainy Baby and Baby IQ series.
nuha pun eliss belikan satu sebab dier sibuk nak makan time orang nak makan..hikss..so sama level duduk senang sket nak suap 😀

mama emma, waaah.. pandai tolak kerusi sendiri.. terer tu ryan.. now ni high chair tu i letak kat living room – dia makan dan menonton kat situ aje la dulu..
Have never bought high chair nor bumboo seater nor walker. We just sat on the floor.. 😀
suealeen, izzah ni tak leh bagi makan duduk kat lantai..maunya dia pegi sana sini, capai mainan la, kacau babah dia la..penat mau kejar dia nak bagi makan..he..he… duduk atas riba? lagi dia meronta-ronta.. so senang kira, nah duduk atau kerusi tinggi ni.. mana mau lari? makan sampai abis baru bole main…muahha..ha..ha (i mama yg notty)..
We never bought high chair..the closest one we got was Bumbo Sitter tapi dah jahanam bila I pinjamkan kat my sis last 4 years.So baby Hambali x merasa Bumbo Sitter tu..been thinking to get one but my hubby is against the idea. Perhaps I should get the strap yg boleh strap kat mana2 chair tu…hemm…thinking2 🙄
.-= Hanz´s last blog post..I am SO sickly in LOVE with Vampire(s) & Werewolf =-.
hanz, ari tu i tengok booster seat tu kat tesco dalam 70 hinggit kot.. maybe ada yang lagi murah..
Along ada beli dulu Bumbo seater tu utk Dina. Pinjamkan ke akak ipar, sib baik x jahanam dek anak dia. Dapatla my youngest ni pakai nanti insya’allah..bila dia dah start makan nanti.
High chair pun ada..my mom beli kat mana ntah. I dunno where it is anymore, haven’t seen it since we moved to our new house..hahaha..
.-= Along´s last blog post..More Mid Term Results =-.
along, high chair missing in action? ha..ha.. tak pe.. pakai je bumbo tu dulu
saya tak belikan darwisy high chair..
sebab,
rumah kami tak ada meja makan..
tapi dia biasa lah guna kalau makan di luar.
kalau di rumah, walaupun makan di lantai,
dia akan duduk di lantai juga bersama2 kami.
kalau dia dah mula bangun dan berjalan,
stop makan. senang cerita.. hehehe
kalau nak makan, duduk. nak jalan, jangan makan..
lama2 dia tahu sendiri… 😛
*rumah kecik sangat, tak muat letak meja makan.. huhu
.-= sya´s last blog post..luahan hati =-.
sya, tak pe la tu.. makan atas lantai pun ok.. dulu masa i kecik2 pun mana ada pakai bumbo, walker, high chair bagai ni pun.. hidup gak kan..he..he.. tapi kena disiplin la.. macam u buat tu bagus la.. tau la darwisy behave time makan ye..
kakyong beli highchair yg murah tu, tak silap rm10 kot.. itu pun masa fikri dah hampir 1 tahun. sbb dah beli meja makan & akmi nak biasakan fikri makan sama2…
.-= kakyong´s last blog post..185 Sesi menepek award.. part 1 Julai 2009 =-.
kakyong, mula2 pun ingat nak cari highchair yg macam kat kedai makan tu tapi tak jumpa la.. masa taknak banyak.. masa nak takde..he..he..so pegi ikea beli sebab kira masih murah la compare dgn harga brand lain tu.. apa2 highchair pun takpe..asal digunakan
