HIGH CHAIRS

High Chair Engineering: Posture and Digestion

A high chair is more than a dining seat; it is a platform for proper digestion and motor skill development. Technically, a high-performance chair provides "90-90-90" support—keeping the child's hips, knees, and ankles at right angles. baby enRoute curates seating solutions from brands like Nomi and Cybex that feature adjustable footrests, ensuring the child has a stable base to push against, which is essential for safe swallowing.

Configuration Logic: Traditional vs. Grow-With-Me

The choice of a high chair often depends on long-term spatial planning. If the goal is a single investment that spans childhood, a "grow-with-me" chair is the preferred direction because it transforms into an adult-capable seat. Conversely, for families with limited dining space, a compact folding model from Peg Perego may be necessary to maintain kitchen flow.

Cleanability and Surface Design

Since mealtimes are inherently messy, the surface geometry of the chair is critical. We look for designs with seamless seat pans and removable tray liners. Eliminating crevices where food can get trapped reduces the daily cleaning burden and prevents bacterial growth.
