Strapping a toddler to a chair

I'm looking for a solution to strap my very active 2 year old to a dining chair whilst were on holiday. I have a travel seat by dont really want to waste luggage allowance. I need a 5 point harness style thing.

I did consider reigns but I can't see how you would attach them to a normal chair.

Does anyone know of anything or have any suggestions please?

I can't remember how to link properly from my phone so if this doesn't work, Google baby chair harness...

Maybe the above would suit?

Thanks both for your replies, ive seen this style before and they dont work for her, she is a very active climber and just pulls herself out.

I just use the reins harness (proper one), unclip one end of the lead, wrap it through the chair wherever possible (spindles, seat, arms, whatever) and then clip it back together when DS2 is secure.

These are the reins I use

My 2 yr old sounds very similar to yours - always climbing!
I found it easier & safer not to strap him into anything that wasn't permanently fixed to something solid as he could climb out & tip the chair etc so easily. He finds it less frustrating not to be restrained.

I have reins from mothercare and they came with chair attachments
