Abstract

A tray apparatus is provided for attachment to a high chair. The tray apparatus includes a tray having a circular outer periphery. Raised arm or elbow rest areas are formed at the back of the tray. Peripheral portions, which are located at the back of the tray, decrease in height in a direction from the outer periphery. The tray apparatus also includes a latching mechanism that provides a number of functions including: adjustment of the tray relative to the high chair while maintaining engagement between the tray apparatus and the high chair; one-handed or two-handed removal of the tray apparatus from the high chair; and a memory feature which facilitates removal of the tray apparatus and attachment thereof at the same position relative to the high chair.
