I won’t tell you what kind it is, but I will tell you that I really dislike our portable booster seat. As a matter of fact, I’ve never really met a booster seat that I like. Well thanks to the good folks at Target, there is now a great alternative! It’s called “Kaboost”! (Isn’t that fun to say? Say it out loud a couple times. It makes me smile.) Kaboost is a portable chair booster that fits on the bottom of almost any chair and makes the chair taller. Geeenius! It’s really light-weight, and it took less than a minute to install. It adjusts to two different heights, (the same heights as standard booster seats do) and has TONS of traction on the bottom so it won’t slip. As a matter of fact, my hubby commented on the traction several times. It made a real impression on him! Also, it stays attached if you pick the chair up and move it. This thing is SO convenient!! And of course, it detaches and folds up easily and compactly so it is not a hassle to take with you when you are going over to a friend’s for dinner. If you are having a hard time visualizing , here are some pics of Joshua using a chair in our dining room fitted with our Kaboost. I will note that the Kaboost is for kids ages 2 and up – Sophie isn’t quite old enough to sit in a chair and not be strapped into it (besides – she can’t be trusted!)
Here’s Joshua without the Kaboost, sitting at our dining room table:
And here he is inthe chair with the Kaboost – look how much taller he is! (He’s checking to see if his peanut butter toast has a heartbeat.)

And here’s a close-up of the Kaboost on our chair:
Isn’t that COOL? I love it SO MUCH! It retails at Target for $29.99 and I predict it is going to be the Next Big Thing on everyone’s baby registry. It also comes in three colors – chocolate, like mine, green, and natural. You can check those out here. It’s also part of Target’s new Parent Inventors Line – one of many cool products invented by moms & dads. Em & I will be reviewing some of the other products from this line within the next couple of weeks. But I can honestly say, I wish I’d thought of this one! The Kaboost rocks, and it works for me!
