A child seat includes a seat body, and a first and a second support respectively assembled with the seat body via a first and a second connection. The seat body has a seating surface and a bottom surface below the seating surface, and the first and second support are extendable below the bottom surface. The child seat has a first configuration in which the first support is configured as a leg resting board and the second support extends forward toward the first support, and a second configuration in which the first support is folded to a substantially horizontal position and the second support extends rearward so that the child seat is able to stand on the first and second supports.

1. A child seat comprising: a seat body having a seating surface, a bottom surface below the seating surface, a front portion for placement of a child's legs; anda first and a second support respectively assembled with the seat body about a first and a second pivot axis spaced apart from each other
1. A child seat comprising: a seat body having a seating surface, a bottom surface below the seating surface, a front portion for placement of a child's legs; anda first and a second support respectively assembled with the seat body about a first and a second pivot axis spaced apart from each other and extending transversally relative to the seat body, the first and second support being extendable below the bottom surface; anda connector supported on the seat body and laterally overlapping the second support;wherein the child seat has a first configuration in which the first support is configured as a leg resting board and the second support extends forward toward the first support, and a second configuration in which the first support is folded to a substantially horizontal position and the second support extends rearward so that the child seat is able to stand on the first and second supports; andwherein the second support has an impeding portion movably supported on the second support, the impeding portion is moved by camming action to open a gap between the connector and the second support in the first configuration, and the impeding portion is moved and held to close the gap between the connector and the second support in the second configuration. 2. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the second pivot axis is above and rearward from the first pivot axis. 3. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the second support is locked with the first support in the first configuration, and the second support is unlocked from the first support in the second configuration. 4. The child seat according to claim 3, wherein the second support has a portion that engages with the first support to lock the first and second supports together in the first configuration. 5. The child seat according to claim 3, wherein the second support has a portion that engages with the first support by interference fit to lock the first and second supports together in the first configuration. 6. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the first support is folded toward the bottom surface in the second configuration. 7. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the seat body includes a storage drawer near the bottom surface, when the child seat is in the second configuration the storage drawer being transversally opened relative to the seat body. 8. The child seat according to claim 7, wherein the storage drawer is opened and blocks a rotation of the second support toward the front portion when the child seat is in the second configuration. 9. The child seat according to claim 8, wherein the second support blocks opening of the storage drawer when the child seat is in the first configuration. 10. The child seat according to claim 7, wherein the seat body has an opening for receiving the storage drawer, the opening has a rim, the storage drawer has an edge in which is formed a slit, and the rim engages through the slit when the storage drawer is fully closed. 11. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the second support straddles the bottom surface. 12. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the connector is insertable into a socket of a support frame for attaching the child seat with the support frame when the child seat is in the first configuration, and the impeding portion is displaced to an obstructing position that hinders a proper insertion of the connector into the socket when the impeding portion is moved to close the gap when the child seat is in the second configuration. 13. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the impeding portion is affixed with the second support and is rotatable with the second support about the second pivot axis. 14. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the impeding portion is assembled with the second support for sliding displacement along the second pivot axis. 15. The child seat according to claim 14, wherein a rearward rotation of the second support occurring when the child seat is converted from the first configuration to the second configuration causes the impeding portion to slide relative to the second support to project outward from the second support. 16. The child seat according to claim 14, wherein the impeding portion is connected with a spring, the spring driving the impeding portion to displace inward relative to the second support when the second support rotates forward for converting the child seat from the second configuration to the first configuration. 17. The child seat according to claim 14, wherein a rearward rotation of the second support occurring when the child seat is converted from the first configuration to the second configuration causes the impeding portion to come in abutment with a blocking surface, the blocking surface preventing retraction of the impeding portion toward an interior of the second support such that the impeding portion is restrained to remain in a position projecting outward from the second support and toward the connector. 18. The child seat according to claim 1, wherein the first and second supports are coupled with each other via a linking part comprised of a strap. 19. A child seat comprising: a seat body having a seating surface, a bottom surface below the seating surface, and a front portion for placement of a child's legs;a first and a second support respectively assembled with the seat body via a first and a second pivotal connection, the first and second support being extendable below the bottom surface; anda connector supported on the seat body and laterally overlapping the second support;wherein the first and second supports are respectively rotatable relative to the seat body to convert the child seat between a first and a second configuration, the first and second supports respectively extending forward from the first and second pivotal connections in the first configuration, and the first support being folded to a substantially horizontal position and the second support extending rearward so that the child seat is able to stand on the first and second supports in the second configuration; andwherein the second support has an impeding portion movably supported on the second support, the impeding portion is moved by camming action to open a gap between the connector and the second support in the first configuration, and the impeding portion is moved and held to close the gap between the connector and the second support in the second configuration. 20. The child seat according to claim 19, wherein the second pivotal connection is above and rearward from the first pivotal connection.
