NUBY Booster Seat Review



One thing I love about mealtime is having my whole family sit around the table and spend time together. But having my 15 month-old daughter join us at the table wasn't very practical because she couldn't sit high up enough to see her food...until I tried the NUBY Booster Seat!


The NUBY booster comes with a three-point buckle and two longer straps to secure the seat to an adult chair. My chairs have a large cushion area, so I had to attach the two straps together to make one long strap. It still did a great job of holding the booster firmly in place.


When I first put my daughter in the chair, I was surprised at how high she sat. A definite plus! Her feet rested perfectly on the cushion below the booster and the booster's handles were at just the right place for her to grasp. She seemed very comfortable.


I was very happy with the way the NUBY booster positioned her at the table. She was able to sit high enough to see down into her plate versus having the plate a chest-height. This is very important now that she feeds herself with a spoon.


And because the NUBY booster can accommodate children up to 65 lbs., even older kids can use the seat. It does appear that 3 and 5 year-olds develop strange facial expressions when in the seat. I might need to do some further testing! ;)


Probably my favorite part about the booster is how much my daughter loves it! When using the booster as a stand-alone chair on the floor, she can't seem to get enough of it. She will climb in and out of the booster for 15 minutes and be perfectly happy. And if I buckle her in, she is fine sitting with a book. It's too cute. (It is recommended that the longer straps be removed when using the booster on the floor).

 
The NUBY Booster Seat is a great choice if you want your little one to join you at the table. It is also the perfect travel booster for trips to Grandma's, or when you don't want your toddler sticking to old goo in restaurant high chairs! You can get your own Booster Seat HERE.
