Graco High Chairs Continually Receive High Praise
Think of highchairs and most of us conjure up pictures of the past, complete with cake-covered fingers and an icing smeared face. Sure, highchairs have changed, but your child can still have the same fun you had in your highchair (and make for great pictures to send to friends and family, too).
When looking to find just the right highchair, it is important to seek out a chair that fits your child. You should also look for a highchair that is comfortable and complete with a firm seat pad.
Depending on your and your child’s specific needs, you may also want to look for a highchair that reclines. And don’t forget to strongly consider height adjustment capabilities.
Particularly in the case of newborns and very young, small babies, a reclining highchair helps support the not-yet developed muscles needed to sit upright. The reclining high chair also makes feeding easier and is able to “grow” with your child.
If you’re highchair shopping for a newborn or a very small child, look for infant support that will help to lift the baby in the chair while adding side support to keep the baby safe and comfortable. You may also find it beneficial to find a highchair that allows for single-hand adjusting of height (a particularly great feature for busy moms and busy dads, single parents, etc.) and adjustable trays.
When looking closer at the adjustable trays, you should make certain that it slides with ease and can be pushed up closely to your child. This will help keep your baby’s lap clean and your floor tidy. And, by choosing a tray that is contoured, you are providing yourself (and your baby) with a great place to rest your arms during feeding time.
All of these features and more, including bib bars and storage baskets, help to make life easier for both you and your child and can be found on the full line of highchairs at Graco.
The higher end Graco highchairs also have specialized harness systems (all Graco highchairs have these, the trick is deciding which is best for you – the convertible 3-Point/5-Point harness on the Cadillac models or the standalone 3- and 5-point systems on the others) and should be chosen based on your unique needs.
From the Harmony™ - NEW FASHIONS! 3960BGN in Bergen and the Baby Classics™ Harmony NEW! 3960CNP in Central Park to the Easy Chair® 3192SBA in Safari Babies and the Double Tray™ 3856PLT in Platinum, Graco highchairs remain top-of-the-line and among the most popular on the market today.
Graco also boasts a superior line of table chairs, including the Travel Lite™ 3045JJP in Jungle Pets (a personal favorite) and the Travel Lite™ Table Chair 3045JKP in Jackpot (for the gambler in your young one).
Graco highchairs, like all of the Graco products, come in an overwhelmingly huge selection of patterns and fabrics. You may want to match your kitchen table and chairs, try something gender specific, or purchase a highchair that is fun and stimulating (think colorful with lots of geometric shapes) for you child.
For the parent who is looking for something to entertain their baby while in the highchair (perhaps while cooking dinner), Graco makes a great colorful, fun Mix N’ Move® Toy System. Its interchangeable design makes it practical for use on Graco highchairs, as well as Graco strollers, Graco swings and the Graco Activity System.
Cute, interactive (and without noise makers), this multi-use Graco accessory is the best! What’s more, the Graco Mix N’ Move® Toy systems encourage the development of eye-hand coordination and keep your baby occupied.
