highchair or booster

Do you use a highchair or booster in a restraunt?  At home?

DS is in a booster at home (that has a buckle) we just switched him a month ago. 

We haven't tried a booster in a restraunt yet, but I'm thinking we should.  I'm just leary because they have no belts and I have a kid who refuses to sit still.

Re: highchair or booster

  • We would use either, however DD almost fell out of the booster in the restaurant last time we were there, so it scared the crap out of us (and her.) I would probably err on the side of a high chair if I had the choice between the two. Sometimes DD even just sits in the chair with nothing (she prefers that over the booster we use at home.)

  • At home, we have the SpaceSaver, but we just use it as a booster (no tray, just pushed up to the table). At restaurants, we switch between the booster and the highchair.

  • At a restaurant it really just depends on where we sit and her mood.  We've done both and she doesn't seem to prefer one over the other.

    At home we have a wooden high chair (like you'd see in a restaurant) that we push up to the table.

    I actually just sold our big Graco high chair this week.  We hadn't used it since around her first birthday, so it was just sitting in the kitchen taking up space.

  • We just switched to a booster at home. We had one time in a restaurant in a booster and took turns holding him down. Never again.

  • We've switched to a booster seat in restaurants. He is completely unwilling to sit still, and we'd rather he be wiggly than screaming.

    He sits just fine in his high chair at home, though.
