A high chair makes it
easier to feed your child, but you should make sure the child can't tip it
over.
The American Academy of
Pediatrics mentions this safety checklist for high chairs:
•
The chair
should be sturdy and not tip over easily.
•
If the
chair folds, make sure it's locked before the child sits down.
•
Fasten all
safety straps in the chair, and don't allow your child to stand up in it.
•
Don't
position the chair close enough to a table that your child can push against the
table and tip over.
•
Children
should never be left unattended in a high chair. Older kids should never be
allowed to climb on it.
Avoid using a high
chair that hooks onto the table, in place of a freestanding one.
