Tripp Trapp® - The chair that grows with the child!Children can start using Tripp Trapp® with babyrail when they can sit unaided (normally the age of 6 to 9 months). Since the chair can be so easily adjusted, there is certainly no reason why it can’t be used for longer. In fact, adults can easily sit comfortable in a Tripp Trapp®!

One of the main ideas behind Tripp Trapp® is to bring the child up to the adult table, creating interaction between children and adults. Young children, like adults, prefer to eat with company. If your child is seated at the correct height and has someone to share the meal with, mealtimes will be an enjoyable occasion for her. Eating with a family also helps the child integrate into regular mealtimes as well as learn some of your basic family rules about eating at the table. In addition, children can benefit verbally, socially and learn imitative behavior such as feeding themselves.

Comes in white, whitewash, natural, cherry, walnut, black, red, orange, lime and turquoise. Comes with five point harness.
