Danish term or phrase: bøjlen
It is something that a baby sits in, but I don't want to call it a "baby chair."

(I only have a picture, and unfortunately pictures can't be posted (yet) here, so it is a bit difficult to provide context. I will try to describe it.)

It is a chair for a baby 6 months to 2 years old. In this case, it is a part of a chair that can be clipped on (attached) to a larger charge with higher legs.

Any suggestions?

baby rail or 'baby set' (if Tripp Trapp chair)
Explanation:
I overlooked the word 'bøjle' when I posted my discussion entry (sorry, early morning here in British Columbia), but I do think you're referring to the Tripp Trapp chair. If that's the case, you could call it a baby rail - see reference - or use the specific name of the company's product (baby set).

Asker: Good idea. But I can't simply say "clip on," even if that is the literal translation of the term, as that wouldn't explain what it is (risking confusion).

Asker: IF it was a Tripp Trapp, it would have been easier to find a term for this (simply look in the Internet); but it isn't. However thanks for your suggestion, I'll simply use their term as if it was...
