Booster seats are designed for older child who’ve outgrown their forward-facing or convertable car safety seats. There’s no set rule for when to move your child to a booster seat, but for most kids around the age of 4 is a good time.
An exception would be if a younger child has outgrown his or her forward-facing seat. As we all know, some kids grow faster than others, and there is no one-size-fits-all standard as to when a child should graduate to a booster seat.
That being said, your child is probably ready for a booster seat if :
-
His or her ears have reached the top of the seat.
-
His or her shoulders extend above the slots for the top harness.
-
His or her weight exceeds what is allowed for your seat (these limits are posted on the seat, as well as the instruction book) .
Booster seats are sort of a bridge between forward-facing seats and regular seat
belts. The seat is designed to elevate your child so that regular lap and
shoulder belts will fit him or her properly, and provide safe restraint in case
of an accident or sudden stop. The booster seat should be used until your child
is large enough to use the vehicle’s shoulder and lap seat belts.
