I Bought This Chair For My Granddaughter Who Is Only 4 Months Old. Her Older Sister Has A Little Chair And They Like To Be Next To Each Other All The Time. This Chair Is Perfect! It Leans Back Just Enough So That She Doesn'T Fall Forward. As She Gets Bigger, She Can Learn About Rocking But For Now, Sitting Is Where It'S At! The Gingham Is Very Sweet And The Lavender Is Really Nice Too. I Would Highly Recommend This Chair For Your Special Little One!
