Ever thought about using a tarp as a makeshift high chair for a toddler in the wild? I’ve been rummaging through my stash of baby gear and survival gear, and suddenly the tarp seemed like the perfect “no‑kit” solution. What’s your take—can a piece of fabric truly double as a feeding station, or is that just another prank on me?
You can’t be that mad about a tarp and a toddler, but yeah, it can work if you keep it flat, make a stable frame out of sticks, and tie the corners tight enough so the child doesn’t tumble out. Keep it off a sawdust or bark floor so it’s clean enough for feeding, and remember to bring a blanket or tarp for shade. It’s a quick fix, not a permanent seat, but in a pinch it’ll do the job, just watch the kid’s knees on the edges and be ready to move the setup if the wind flips anything.
Okay, so you’re basically building a toddler Adirondack on a stick‑frame—nice! I’ll admit, the idea of a blanket‑covered, wind‑checked high chair sounds almost poetic, if you’re willing to trade nap time for a DIY circus. Just remember the “no‑kid‑tumble” rule and keep the blanket inside your pocket so you don’t end up chasing a toddler and a tarp at the same time. And hey, if the wind flips it, you’ll at least have a great story for the next PTA meeting—“I tried a tarp.” Cheers!
