Tried: Stokke Tripp Trapp Newborn Set
July 28, 2011 by Kat · 4 Comments
As soon as the Stokke Tripp Trapp Newborn Set was released I was sold. My favourite highchair: suitable from birth bringing the baby into the heart of family meal times. When Betsy was born, knowing we were fans, Stokke very kindly sent her her own newborn set. As Betsy is now five months old and [...]

If you have ever tried to eat a meal while a small baby makes their protest at being down on the floor in their bouncy chair than you will know it isn’t long before you’re either holding them and attempting to eat or have abandoned eating all together. This was an all too familiar scene [...]

The No Tray Highchair
If you’re looking at these highchairs and having a ‘Do I know you from somewhere?’ moment think Pizza Express, Jamie Oliver’s Recipease, a host of restaurants around the country, and er…KFC. Like many parents, we’ve used them frequently and if you’ve liked them so much you’ve wondered how you can own one, you’ll be pleased [...]

A few months ago when it was time to wean baby Nia (now one), and Saria made it very clear that she wasn’t going to let her use her precious Svan highchair, Norwegian designers Stokke’s Tripp Trapp was instantly top of our list for Nia’s new eating home, and they were kind enough to send [...]

I know enough Stokke Tripp Trapp owners to know that they tend to passionately love their chair although the one thing that they always have to reconcile themselves to is the lack of tray which some find difficult to hack in the early months of use when your baby is…well…messy! The Stokke Table Top offers [...]
