Abstract: A stuffed figure chair including a cushioned figure, a removable seat, and a mechanism for removably fastening the removable seat to the cushioned figure. The cushioned figure includes a torso connected to a pair of lower limbs. Separate strap receiving members or loops are part of the fastening mechanism and are attached to the stuffed figure at each of the lower limbs, and preferably also the torso. The removable seat is structured to be received between the lower limbs of the cushioned figure. Strap elements attached to the removable seat are engageable with the strap receiving members on the figure to secure the removable seat to the cushioned figure. Because the connections between the torso and limbs are sufficiently inflexible so as to provide a resistance to pivotal motion of the torso relative to the limbs, an occupant of the seat fastened to the cushioned figure can lean back against and be supported by the figure torso.

Abstract: A child chair includes a cushioned character and a frame for supporting it upright with a child leaning against the cushioned character. The character has a body with upper and lower pairs of limbs connected thereto, and a seat pad connected between the lower limbs and capable of resting on a support surface when the body is disposed upright. The frame has a rigid skeletal member and an anchor member. The rigid member is composed of base and upright portions disposed within the character body. The base portion can assume a resting position on the support surface and the upright portion rigidly connected and extending in a generally transverse relation to the base portion can support the character body upright when the base position is in its resting position.
