1 . A chair, comprising:

a chair back;

a chair seat;

a left adjustable swing arm moveable between a rest position at 90 degrees relative to the chair back and an extended position at 180 degrees relative to the chair back, the left adjustable swing arm further comprising a left arm rest and a left arm rod further comprising a first segment and a second segment at 90 degrees relative to the first segment, the first segment of the left arm rod disposed longitudinally within left arm rest;

a right adjustable swing arm moveable between a rest position at 90 degrees to the chair back and an extended position at 180 degrees relative to the chair back, the right adjustable swing arm further comprising a right arm rest and a right arm rod further comprising a first segment and a second segment at 90 degrees relative to the first segment, the first segment of the right arm rod disposed longitudinal within right arm rest;

a left and a right swing arm support each attached to the chair back, the second segment of the left arm rod pivotably mounted to the left swing arm support to allow the left swing arm to pivot between the rest position and the extended position, the second segment of the right arm rod pivotably mounted to the right swing arm support to allow the right swing arm to pivot between the rest position and the extended position,

wherein the left swing arm support defines a left-side opening extending downwardly therein, a left-side plastic tube pivotable within the left-side opening, and wherein the second segment of the left arm rod is disposed within the left-side plastic tube for allowing pivot motion of the left swing arm; and

wherein the right swing arm support defines a right-side opening extending downwardly therein, a right-side plastic tube pivotable within the right-side opening, and wherein the second segment of the right arm rod is disposed within the right-side plastic tube for allowing pivot motion of the right swing arm.

2 . The chair of claim 1 , further comprising a left and a right motion-limiting element associated with a respective left and right swing arm.

3 . The chair of claim 1 , wherein a length of the first segment of the left arm rod disposed longitudinally within the left arm rest is adjustable and wherein a length of the first segment of the right arm rod disposed longitudinally within the right arm rest is adjustable.

4 . The chair of claim 1 , further comprising a left arm coupling element, a left chair back coupling element, a right arm coupling element, and a right chair back coupling element, wherein the left swing arm is pivotable to a position behind the chair back such that the left arm coupling element is attachable to the left chair back coupling element, and wherein the right swing arm is pivotable to a position behind the chair back such that the right arm coupling element is attachable to the right chair back coupling element.

5 . The chair of claim 4 , wherein the left and right chair back coupling elements and the left and right arm coupling elements each comprise a magnet.

6 . A kit for attaching swing arms to a chair, the kit comprising:

a left base plate for attaching to a left arm of a chair;

a right base plate for attaching to a right arm of a chair;

a left swing arm for pivotable attachment to the left base plate and moveable between a rest position overlying a left arm of a chair and an extended position at about 180 degrees relative to a back of a chair;

a right swing arm for pivotable attachment to the right base plate and moveable between a rest position overlying a right arm of a chair and an extended position at about 180 degrees relative to a back of a chair; and

a left-side and a right-side brace, a first end of the left-side brace for pivotable attachment to a distal end of the left bolt or rod and a second end of the left-side brace for attachment to an underside surface of the left swing arm, a first end of the right-side brace for pivotable attachment to a distal end of the right bolt or rod and a second end of the right-side brace for attachment to an underside surface of the right swing arm.

7 . The kit of claim 6 , further comprising a left and a right bolt or rod for pivotably coupling the respective left swing arm to the left base plate and the right swing arm to the right base plate.

8 . The kit of claim 6 , further comprising a left and a right hook and loop strap for attaching the respective left base plate to a left chair arm and the right base plate to a right chair arm.

9 . The kit of claim 6 ,

further comprising spacers for attaching to an underside surface of the left swing arm or for attaching to an upper-side surface of the left base plate to define an open space between the underside surface of the left swing arm and the upper-side surface of the left base plate, and

further comprising spacers for attaching to an underside surface of the right swing arm or for attaching to an upper-side surface of the right base plate to define an open space between the underside surface of the right swing arm and the upper-side surface of the right base plate.

10 . A kit for attaching swing arms to a chair, the kit comprising:

a left base plate for attaching to a left arm of a chair;

a right base plate for attaching to a right arm of a chair;

a left swing arm for pivotable attachment to the left base plate and moveable between a rest position overlying a left arm of a chair and an extended position at about 180 degrees relative to a back of a chair;

a right swing arm for pivotable attachment to the right base plate and moveable between a rest position overlying a right arm of a chair and an extended position at about 180 degrees relative to a back of a chair;

bolts and mating nuts and a left clamp plate, one or more bolts for passing through openings in the left base plate for engaging the left clamp plate disposed on an underside of a left chair arm and one or more nuts for engaging the one or more bolts for attaching the left base plate to a left chair arm, and

further comprising a right clamp plate, one or more bolts for passing through openings in the right base plate for engaging the right clamp plate disposed on an underside of a right chair arm and one or more nuts for engaging the one or more bolts for attaching the right base plate to a right chair arm.
