Gone are the days of the high chair. Where is time going? We kept him in his high chair for a bit longer than we probably needed to. But honestly, we didn’t have a booster seat for him and we weren’t sitting at our kitchen table with him.
Now, we’ve cleaned up our kitchen table and he has a new booster seat. And he LOVES it! (Does your kitchen table become a mess of papers, books, puzzles, and art supplies like mine? It’s hard to keep up with it!)
The kids love eating at the dinner table now. It is a new fun thing for them. We’ve always eaten meals together, but we had been eating in our kitchen. My Little Man in his hair chair, daddy and Princess on the bar stools and mommy just stood. (And ran around the kitchen getting food, drinks, utensils, napkins…) Now we are sitting down at a clean kitchen table and eating together and visiting. No electronics. No television in the background.
Do you eat family meals together at the dinner table?
About Happy and Hungry Booster Seat
Children through 50 lbs will enjoy the booster seat featuring Eric Carle’s caterpillar from beloved book – The Very Hungry Caterpillar. This easy to clean cushioned seat has a removable tray, 2 recline positions, 3 tray positions, and 2 height positions! I love the handle for easy transport and the 3 point harness for safety.
Since we pushed his chair right up to the kitchen table, we didn’t use this awesome removable tray. But, if we’d had this booster seat earlier, I would have been using it instead of my gigantic bulky high chair! That is our only complaint – we wished we had it sooner.
You can find this affordably priced booster seat exclusively at Burlington Coat Factory online here.

Well congratulations! I love the bright happy colors and I’m sure you love that it’s easy to clean.

J Merrill says
The first thing I notice is just how comfortable it looks. I want a chair that looks that cozy!
LaVonne says
Right?! Our dining room chairs look all hard and uncomfortable compared to it.
Coralie says
What a fun age! All of my kids used booster seats as well and it was so nice to have that added height. This seat looks so comfy and perfect for little ones wanting to be part of the “big” crowd.
LaVonne says
He does feel like a big boy now, Coralie. It is cute. He sits up there next to me when I have my laptop at the table and he just colors. I am quite happy with it!
Robin Gagnon says
I remember so looking forward to my daughter graduating out of her high chair. Of course, once they are free of it they have even more opportunities to be little mommy terrorists.
LaVonne says
That is so so true Robin. Sometimes, I think his goal in life is drive me insane. It’s a good thing I love him so much! LOL!
Mommy Blogger says
they get big fast, don’t they? in 5 minutes, he will be in no seat at all ๐ LOL
LaVonne says
That’s what I am thinking! Time is flying by so quickly. I’d love to keep him little forever…
Melanie says
What a big boy, he looks so cute in it. Luckily we have a kitchen table (where we eat off of our meals) and a dining room table (where kids do homework, crafts, etc). Family dinners are so important. You learn so much about each other’s day and of course kids always say something that keeps you laughing!! I grew up eating at the dinner table each night and want my kids to as well.
LaVonne says
We ate dinner at our kitchen table every night too. My mom used to have a bowl of questions that she’d have us answer. Random stuff – like what would you do if you won a million dollars. I had a great childhood ๐
