High Back Boosters: Level Up

Do you have an older child who's now in a high back booster? Did you know that the way that the seat belt is routed through the booster is essential to how it functions in the event of a crash?  Make sure that the seat back is adjusted so that the shoulder belt is coming from above the child's shoulders.

ERF FTW!

Did you know that there are car seats that will rear face to as much as 50 pounds and seats that can get even the tallest of children to about age 4 RF?! Rear facing is so much safer! Don't rush that next step! "C" is still rear facing in a Graco Size4Me, in a Hyundai Elantra at 4 years old, 38lbs & 41" tall. Safely. Happily. Comfortably.

Air Bags aren’t for Kids

Remember–airbags are designed for adults, not kids. A child sitting in front of an airbag can be seriously hurt or killed (and air bag sensors are *not* reliable!). Kids need to stay in the back seat until they’re at least 13 years old. (And of course, a rear facing seat should never go in front of an active air bag!)
