My DS is 2.2 and recently decided that he no longer wants to sit in his highchair or on the booster seat. He can climb up and down onto a kitchen chair by himself and now won't sit still for very long at mealtimes. I keep asking him to come back to the table but he either walks around the kitchen or just wants to play musical chairs. Is there a way to avoid this becoming a battle of wills? I have a small table and chairs in his bedroom that he uses for drawing etc. Would it be a good idea to offer that instead of the big table? I quite like the idea of us all sitting together at the table which this wouldn't allow. Thanks in advance. XxÂ
