My 19 month old used to be very happy in her Ikea high chair. Now more often than not she throws a massive leg kicking tantrum when I try to put her in it. Even tempting her in with a big pile of goji berries has stopped working. If we put her in against her will (2 person job) she just screams, head bangs, tries to climb out and refuses to eat. If she agrees to go in she quickly asks to sit on my knee when she tries to throw my food on the floor or feed it to me with a fork... Her preferred option is to run around the kitchen occasionally grabbing a mouthful on the go.
None of these are ideal.
I'm not sure if this is just one of those pesky phases or if we need to think about alternative seating arrangements?
Has anyone got any wisdom to share about high chair refusal and what alternatives might work? She is too small to use a normal chair and tends to topple off.
Thanks in advance.
