Which chair?

I have two boys who are 5 months and 19 months old.
We are moving house soon, the house we are buying has a fixed dining table which is high meaning we are buying bar stools (with a back on for me and my partner). Obviously this is unsafe for the baby and toddler. What would you do? Some options are:
Buy a small table and chairs for the toddler to sit on (and eventually the baby). But thua means they will be 'left out during meal times.
Get a special stool that is designed for a toddler with straps... I can't find this, does anyone have any suggestions?
Some other set up?
Thank you for any help.

What about high hairs with trays? Then they can sit with you but eat from the tray rather than the table.

Thank you so much for all your replies.
@sarge89 those are quite good but I guess I would have the same problem with them not being part of dinner time.
@inappropriateraspberry that is a good point I guess they might fit underneath so would be like a normal chair.
@GuckGuckDoose those are so good!! Thank you for the link. I have never seen them before. I guess they would work if the table is attached to the floor too (I would be slightly worried in case the table tipped 😅)

Have you got a picture of this dining table?

I used clip on high chairs for years over all sorts of tables

IKEA used to do a wooden tall chair for children that was safe will go see if they still do.

They attach to chairs/stools so your little ones can sit with you 🙂

I found a better picture than the first.

Tripp trap

They're not cheap, but they're brilliant. Height adjustable as they grow.

My sisters kids are now 9/11/14 and they all still use them. The paint has lasted well on all of them & they're fine for smaller adult bottoms too!

At times, over the years the kids have used them at the table, at the breakfast bar, as desk chairs, to play instruments snd now they're back at the dining table - versatile.
