The Science of Sitting
Why feet matter at mealtime
When a baby's legs dangle in a highchair, their core muscles work overtime just to stay upright. The result? Fidgeting, fussing, and distracted eating.
Pediatric feeding specialists advocate for the : hips, knees, and ankles each at a 90-degree angle. This creates stability, allowing your little one to focus entirely on the complex task of chewing and swallowing.90-90-90 position
Our adjustable footrest provides that critical third point of contact—transforming chaotic mealtimes into calm, focused moments of connection.
"Pediatric occupational therapists recommend the 90-90-90 position for all mealtimes—hips, knees, and ankles each at 90 degrees. Our footrest makes this easy to achieve."

How do you attach a footrest to an IKEA highchair?

Installation takes under 2 minutes with no tools required. Simply slide the O-rings onto the highchair legs at your desired height, then rest the footrest board in the notches. Adjust as needed—most parents move it up every few months as their baby grows.
