Me Too Clip-on Portable Highchair

Your child can sit at the table with you; anywhere!

This is one of those little things that are ideal for people on the go. If you have spent any time traveling, you can really appreciate the advantages of having a lightweight, fully collapsible, clip-on highchair that can go everywhere you go.

This is not a new idea, but has recently been adapted from a 20 year old European concept for the North American market by redesigning the seat to meet the highest safety requirements.

The seat clamps onto tables from 3/4″ to 2″ (19cm to 50cm) thick and creates an instant highchair anywhere. This is in the range of most picnic tables which is the way that I used mine the most. Great for travel, visiting somebody’s house, or camping. One use I’ve seen here in town is taking it to a restaurant; you never know if they have a highchair, or if they do what sort of condition it’s in…

The clamp-on seat weighs 2 lbs and collapses to a mere one inch thick, so it will fit in most diaper bags and backpacks. The nylon seat makes the chair easy to clean and the frame & clamps are made of aircraft quality aluminum with a rubber flange to provide a secure grip. Overall one of the sturdiest highchairs you’ll ever use; of any design.

It's still Cold Up Here - Heading South?

Up here in the the wilds of British Columbia, it’s still very much winter. But lately i’ve seen a rash of locals fleeing for warmer climes in pursuit of some relief from the snow. Only a few months of winter (and we get such a perfect winter), and everyone starts looking for sun and surf. At Mountain Baby we’ve had to dig though the back, pulling out sunhats and sunglasses, sunscreen and lifejackets. I’ve put away my speech on layering systems and started imparting the wisdom of sun protection. In this day and age, most people (and parents especially) know all about the long term affects of the suns rays. And I don’t mean darker skin so that you can show off to your friends that you’ve been on holidays.
Remember:

• It’s a lot easier to get them to cover up if you lead by example; wear a hat, put on sunscreen.

• Waterproof sunscreen does not mean all day, keep an eye on it. Or wear some sunprotected clothing (look for at least a 40 spf rating).

• Those big floppy hats may look a little silly, but sure beats dealing with a child in pain all the way back on the plane…

Kids will be kids. They want to play, not worry about their skin; that’s your job. If you have any questions about how to protect your children, drop us a line; we’d be glad to help.
