KABOOST Portable Chair Booster Giveaway
Have I told you I’m a work-at-home mom? I am. Every morning, I fire up the computer and work the same job at home that I used to do from an office, before a baby changed everything. Now that my baby is two years old, he’s not so content sitting in a bassinet wiggling his fingers while I type. Not anymore. Now he wants to be right up by me, sitting at the table with his crayons and books. But up until recently, he just couldn’t reach. No matter how hard I tried to dissuade him, he climbed up on the chair and sat with his chin resting on the table, waiting for Mommy to give him a task. Until I got a KABOOST, that is.
KABOOST sent me a most ingenious invention of theirs. It goes under the chair, not on top. This makes me one happy mom, since I got some beautiful solid wood chairs over the holidays, and I really didn’t want to scratch them up with a clunky contraption. Even better, I can take that KABOOST with me everywhere I go because it’s spring loaded, folds up really fast, and fits any type of chair. Now my son doesn’t even need the high chair at Grandma’s house. He can look everyone square in the eyeball while he’s throwing his peas across the table. (Much better aim that way.) And it’s sturdy too. One evening, I turned to place dinner on the table and found my husband was a good 6 inches taller than usual. He sat the whole dinner through on the KABOOST much to the chagrin of everyone present. Held him nicely, thank you. (Although it holds up to 300 pounds, I wouldn’t recommend this as a good everyday use for the seat; but hey, we’re running important tests here.)
So you want your own KABOOST now, do you? I thought you’d say that. And so did the KABOOST people, because they’ll send one to one of you, ($37.95 retail) if you’re the lucky winner! All you have to do is follow the rules below, and your kid could be sitting pretty very soon.

Thanks smart people!
July 2nd, 2008 at 11:56 am
the Kaboost product is a great invention! Using one of these with my existing chairs, I wouldn’t need to have a high chair. The little ones feel more comfortable eating at the big table with everyone else too! And keeping one in the car would be great too, how many times have you been to a restaurant and all those booster seats or high chairs are taken? Or broken? Or just plain YUCK? I can tell you its happened to me more than once! great idea for a product, very useful!

July 2nd, 2008 at 2:08 pm
Thank you for this great giveaway. I love that the Kaboost is portable. We could use this wherever we go or in homes that we visit. This would especially come in handy for when we visit the grandparents.
Thanks so much and please enter me.

I’ve never seen anything like it & it will fit permanently in the trunk of my small car!

I love that it move with the chair and looks to be easy to use. My daughter is at that in between stage - too big for the high chair but not quite big enough for a real chair and this would help a lot.
July 2nd, 2008 at 2:29 pm
KABOOST is wonderful. I remember being boosted up by telephone books as a child when I went visiting. I don’t want to embarrass my grandson in the same way. And it stores away easily when it isn’t being used at grandma’s house.

I really like it and I know my sister could use it.Then,after my baby is born,I will use it.
July 2nd, 2008 at 4:48 pm
What amazing minds think up these great new gizmos? Thank goodness I am a mom now and not 20 years ago!
July 2nd, 2008 at 4:55 pm
What a wonderful idea. I could certainly use this for my littlle ones. We have hardwood floors and the chairs are always slipping .

July 2nd, 2008 at 5:34 pm
This would be wonderful for some of the children I work with, children with small stature that want to sit at the table with their peers.
July 2nd, 2008 at 5:39 pm
This is great. I would love to have one for my son. Thanks for the giveaway!
July 2nd, 2008 at 5:41 pm
Wow this is perfect for the wee one. No slippy chair and the table isn’t at an awkward angle.
July 2nd, 2008 at 5:41 pm
I’ve been wanting one of these for a while so my daughter can ditch her high chair and be closer up to the table with the kaboost on her chair. Great giveaway, thanks!

It would work for me ,because as a grandmother of 4 under the age of 3 an another one on the way,I can keep it with me where ever I go an in the house,I dont have any baby equipment,they came so fast,hey they were suppose to spread them out over a long period of time so I could just wallow in my grandmotherhood,oh im joking,im having a blast,im nuts but having a blast,they are soooooooooo soft an sweet,an I just love be a Mamaw,an rocking an singin to my babies,so yeah,I could use this,I want them all here at the same time,I dont want any of them to ever feel left out,thanks
July 2nd, 2008 at 5:55 pm
I’d heard of Kaboost, but didn’t realize that there were two different heights. Now I’m wondering if I should get one for my short Grandma.
July 2nd, 2008 at 5:58 pm
I love that it’s so compact. Space is a premium for us, so I like that it’s small itself, plus it allows us to use what we already have without having to clutter up the dining room with an extra high chair that takes up way too much room and is then completely useless when the child gets bigger.

July 2nd, 2008 at 6:19 pm
I like that it folds up for storage or for taking out. Perfect
July 2nd, 2008 at 6:24 pm
I like how portable it is. It would be great for when we travel to our parents’ homes (4-6 hours away from our home) who don’t have high chairs. This would be perfect when our little one is finally home with us from Russia (we are adopting).

I’d love to keep this in my car for when we are somewhere like grandma’s house or aunt and uncles’ places.
July 2nd, 2008 at 6:31 pm
One great thing about the Kaboost is that it adds stability to the chair, because my kids sometimes fall off our chairs when trying to reach the table. This would be perfect for our 3 year old son. Thank you!

The Kaboost is really brilliant! I would have never thought to boost someone up from the bottom of the chair like that! I’m sure it will catch on fast!
July 2nd, 2008 at 7:33 pm
i have been wanting this for some time now. i love the spring loaded arms of the kaboost!
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:00 pm
While I don’t have a nice dinette set yet - I still think this would be great for my daughter to be able to sit and see things on our level.
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:03 pm
I love this so I can get rid of the big, bulky, ugly high chair!
dansan826 at yahoo
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:22 pm
oh my gosh! that is a super cool idea!! portable and easy to use. i love that i don’t have to worry about having a booster or high chair at grandma’s house or my house either! i just pack the kaboost in it’s own little bag and take it with me to use with her chairs or at a restaurant. it’s gonna be great that my kid won’t be able to tip the chair even if he tries. very stable! adjustable height by flipping it over - it will grow with my son. lightweight, convenient - what more could a mother ask for. i have enough big and bulky stuff already to haul and this will be very, very nice and something that i will get “alot” of use out of! i “luv” the green one. super great invention!!
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:31 pm
I love how it lets toddlers sit like the big kids!
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:36 pm
I like it because it Stays attached even when chair is moved. This would be great for the grandkids.
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:37 pm
My daughter is just starting to be more interested in the big-girl seats than in her high chair. This would safely allow her to use a regular chair!
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:45 pm
I like that it easily folds up. It would be great for us because we have 2 little ones in highchairs right now, but only have 1 portable seat. It would be nice to have a second one, so I don’t have to feed one of the children from my lap!
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:59 pm
I like that it folds up nice and small for storage.
Thanks!

That is brilliant. Perfect for my four year old, who is too short to sit at Daddy’s desk, but wants to do his letters there instead of his own desk. If I don’t win it, I’ll probably buy it.
July 2nd, 2008 at 9:35 pm
I like that it can be used with any chair- that means that if we are out and about we can use this at grandma’s house, or uncle’s house, or even our house. And best of all, this facilitates the use of a “big boy” chair, which would be a hit at our house!
July 2nd, 2008 at 9:39 pm
I like that it is adjustable to fit just about any chair, so I can use it at home, the in-laws, wherever!

I love that it is so small and portable. It seems much safer too. My daughter has fell from the booster seat so many times becuase you can never get it tight enough!! I hope I win!
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:08 pm
My son hates sitting in his booster. Loves to sit in the big chairs, but he just doesn’t reach. This would be perfect for him!
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:18 pm
I love that I won’t have to buy another high chair when my new one arrives in a few months!! I also love that it increases the stability of the chair… my little boy will definitely test that feature out!!
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:24 pm
I love how portable the kaboost is, and how it will help my petite two year old sit like a big girl!
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:26 pm
I have never seen anything like this at all. this is so unique. I love how it goes under neath the chair. How neat!
Thanks for the chance!
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:27 pm
With #3 on the way, I desperately need one of these! I really like that it’s portable and fits on most chairs.

I love the idea of having a portable booster for my 2 year old. Hes so hard to contain! I’ll get good mileage out of it, because we’re having baby #3 in August!
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:51 pm
I love that it can fit on different chairs- that way, we can take it with us!
July 2nd, 2008 at 11:02 pm
This product will save me from battles with my 3 year old about sitting in his booster seat.
July 2nd, 2008 at 11:03 pm
I love the portable nature–high chairs at all the grandma’s houses!

I love that it is unobtrusive but functional for kids that are a little too big for a high chair or traditional booster chair. A great invention!
July 2nd, 2008 at 11:59 pm
It would travel really well and be practical for us to use on the go.
July 3rd, 2008 at 12:00 am
I love this because it looks like it would work great with any chair. This would work wonderful for us because my son is too little to sit up to the table in a chair, but he wants to sit in a chair so bad so he can feel like a big person. This would enable him to sit up to the table with the rest of us.

Very clever! I’m really glad it comes in other colors than green. I think I like the chocolate color the best. I also like that it adjusts to any chair with 2 different heights.

This would be easy to take along when traveling so I wouldn’t have to worry about the restaurance having enough high chairs. Plus it would be great at home, so that my son could eat at the table with the rest of the family.
July 3rd, 2008 at 6:47 am
This is perfect for at home and travel friendly. It’s perfect for my daughter. She is almost to big for the highchair, and has been really trying to sit at the table with her daddy and I. This is an amazing product.
July 3rd, 2008 at 6:57 am
What a clever product and in pretty colors, too. Thanks for the chance to win.
July 3rd, 2008 at 7:10 am
It’s great that it’s portable!
July 3rd, 2008 at 8:03 am
I like that the chair is still usable for adults even with the Kaboost on. This is great for that “in between” preschool age where they still need a bit of a boost to reach the table but they are really too big to fit in a highchair, especially at a restaurant.

I love the Kaboost, we didnt register for a high chair for baby #2 coming cause Ive had my eye on this for some time now, I just dont have the extra money for it yet. I love it cause we live in an apartment and it isnt big and bulky taking up so much of my little space I have here!
July 3rd, 2008 at 9:32 am
I love that it’s adjustable and it also folds up compact so I could take it with me to restaurants, grandparents house, etc… Also love that it can take the place of the eyesore of a highchair in the kitchen!

July 3rd, 2008 at 10:00 am
This would be great to use at our bar, it’s just *that* much too high for little ones to sit at
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:16 am
This is one of those “Now - why didn’t I think of that?”. Great idea.
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:24 am
Love it!
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:53 am
I just love the fact that it raises the chair so easily. It is such a neat idea with little effort that leaves smaller kids feeling like big kids. It is ot big and bulky and would add a nice booster when my nieces and nephews come over for a visit.
July 3rd, 2008 at 11:07 am
I think the Kaboost would work well for us because it is, well you say it in the post’s title: PORTABLE! This would work so well to take on trips when we go visit family and I just love the ease of use. Thanks for the entry.
July 3rd, 2008 at 11:17 am
Wow, that would be awesome! We travel A LOT. and half the time our daughter ends up eating on the floor or something due to lack of booster seat/high chair. This would solve that problem!

Very cool idea. Much more portable than brining a booster seat
July 3rd, 2008 at 1:10 pm
We have one of those plastic booster seats. Food and gunk gets into every little crack. It’s gross! The kaboost would solve that problem.
July 3rd, 2008 at 1:29 pm
thank u
July 3rd, 2008 at 1:42 pm
This is terrific for older tots
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:17 pm
I really like that the Kaboost is under & not on top of the chair. Boosters on the chair get so nasty with little food crumbs & spills - this seems much cleaner!
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:26 pm
What a clever idea. And I loved those hilarious videos. My youngest can be a handful the table. He doesn’t want to sit in a high chair, he wants to sit at a big chair like his older brother and the adults. However, he isn’t quite tall enough to reach, so he ends up trying to stand in the chair. This would be terrific for our dining room.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:48 pm
We could really use this at home - our dining space is very cramped, there isn’t room for the high chair so we always end up eating on the sofa whle my daughter sits in front of us in her high chair. With the Kaboost we ccould eat together at the dining table! I love that its portable, so we can take it to grandma’s and my daughter can eat with us there too!

My favorite thing about Kaboost is that it would allow my child a feeling of independence since he is sitting on an actual chair, just like everyone else. And because the chair is raised up, he’d also be on a more equal playing field, rather than so much lower than everyone else. I was so excited the first time I saw Kaboost in Babies ‘R Us, and would love to have one! Thank you!
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:39 pm
I absolutely love the Kaboost for so many reasons! My child can sit at the table with us in a stable setting…no marks on the chair from a booster seat, the kaboost is transportable…I can go on and on! We love Kaboost!!

This is a wonderful idea. I love that it has two height options–I have 3 kids under 3 and we’re currently going through lots of stages. It would be great to have one compact contraption to get us through all of them!

July 3rd, 2008 at 8:12 pm
I like that I can use my current (matching) chairs for my kid. And it seems like they’ll have an easier time transitioning to just sitting at the table if they’re used to sitting in the chair already!
July 3rd, 2008 at 8:45 pm
I love that you can use an existing chair this would be great for grandma’s or travel.
July 3rd, 2008 at 11:10 pm
I love the Kaboost because it seems so easy to use and would enable my son to feel like a “big boy” and sit in a “real chair” next to his big sissy.

Why did it take so long for someone to come up with such a fabulous idea.
July 4th, 2008 at 7:29 am
This is great for at home or travel. Especially with a toddler who’s out grown the high chair, but could still use a little “boost” to reach the table. I’d really love it for eating out. Those booster seats always seem to tip over. This looks like it would be light and easy to bring along.

July 4th, 2008 at 10:32 am
I like that it is so small. You are not dragging some huge crazy contraption everywhere
July 4th, 2008 at 10:58 am
I really like to entertain, but sometimes we have guests over, who have young children, and we do not have seating that is suitable for them, aside from our tall counter stools that have no backs. I would love to have a Kaboost on hand, since it is small enough to store easily away, unlike trying to keep a high chair around, and is easy to use. We have any number of dining chairs, just not ones that are high enough to make young children feel like part of the group.
