At eighteen months, my son is just big enough to sit up to the table in a normal chair, but way too wiggly to stay there for long. We use his high chair at home, but I’m too busy trying to stash his extra stuffed giraffe and some clean underwear in our luggage to imagine fitting even a portable booster chair on the plane. I discovered the Sack-n-Seat before a recent trip to a family wedding in France, where I knew we would frequently eat sit-down meals at well-set tables. It’s a fantastic cloth harness that attaches to a full-sized chair, keeping the kid safe from sliding to the floor and preventing him from spending the meal running around the room stealing morsels off his fellow diners’ plates (or is it just my child who likes to impersonate Oliver Twist at events like this?). Best of all, the affordable Sack-n-Seat (I bought mine for less than 20 euros) wads up into a tiny, built-in drawstring bag that fits easily into a diaper bag or even Dad’s coat pocket. It’s available at retailers throughout Europe and Asia.

We’ve got a Sack-n-Seat too and LOVE it. It’s so easy to stick in the diaper bag and bring along everywhere. Plus if (haha, when) it gets dirty, you just toss it in the washing machine.
Ooo. I want one! The boy does well kneeling these days though. Hmm… I still want one!
Beautiful new site! I’ll be sure to tell my fellow Aunties about it, as well as my Mama friends. WoohoO!
