Car Seats by Age
Each car seat is made to fit a certain age group. Children should ride in their car seat until they are at the limit of the manufacturer's weight or height. Then, they can use a booster until the vehicle belts fit correctly, usually when they are between 10 and 12 years old, or 4 feet 9 inches tall.
When you are searching for a new seat look for features like fabric that resists stains and removable pieces that can be washed in the machine. Hardware that is easy to clean should be taken into consideration.
Rear-facing
Rear-facing car seats cradle babies and toddlers, shielding their delicate necks and spines in the event of a collision. They're also safer because they spread the force of impact over a larger surface area which minimizes spinal cord injuries.
Parents are often enticed by the idea of move their kids into forward-facing car seats before they're ready, however the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends keeping them rear-facing for as long as possible. The manufacturer will let you know when your child is ready to move forward-facing.
Children's heads are big in relation to their bodies and is still developing. This makes them more vulnerable to injury in a crash. The head of a child can produce up to 25 times the weight of their body in the event of a collision which is more than enough force to cause fatal injury. This is the reason why children who ride in a car seat that is facing to the side are at a higher chance of suffering fatal head injuries.
Many parents believe that their children have bigger necks and can make the transition to a car seat facing forward earlier. But it's important to remember that a 95th percentile baby isn't any more powerful than a 5th percentile kid, and no amount of push-ups for teens can alter that. In the case of a car accident, a larger child's head will likely be struck with more force. This can result in injuries to the spinal cord and brain.
When your child has outgrown their infant car seat for travel car seat, you can change to a convertible car seat that lets them remain rear-facing until they reach their maximum height or weight limit. Typically, children be the first to reach their height limit and therefore it is important to pay close attention to the instructions of the manufacturer of your car seat on when to change to forward-facing mode.
When your child reaches the weight or height limit of their convertible car seat, you'll need to get them into an adult booster seat. The majority of booster seats have an angle indicator to let you know that the seat is properly installed and is able to be turned to forward-facing mode. Use a booster only in the back of your car and always wear the seat belt (never shoulder belts) to provide the most secure protection for your child.
Forward-facing
Parents are often enticed by the idea of change their baby's car seat around as they grow older, as it's more convenient. But they should remember that rear-facing seats are a safer option for children.
In the event of a crash that involves the baby facing toward the rear facing infant car seat the neck could be at risk. The head can be thrown against the front seat by force and cause permanent spine damage. Whiplash can still occur even if the neck muscles of the child are strong. This is particularly applicable to children who are smaller that aren't yet a year old.
A child who is facing forward is more likely to hit their head on the dashboard or in front of the window in the event of an accident. Depending on what type of crash occurs and how fast the car is moving, the head may be placed against the seat. This could result in fractured skulls or a spinal cord.
The current safety guidelines require children to remain rear-facing until both they reach 20 pounds and 1 year of age. This is because younger kids do not have the strength of their necks to withstand the forces involved in a head-on collision which is the most serious kind of accident where cars are involved.
The use of a harness or tether while rear-facing helps to keep the kid's head stable and reduces the stress on their necks. A rear-facing child will also be less prone to head injuries, as the impact is cushioned by their seat.
If you have a child less than one year old in a convertible seat or an all-in-one that can be changed from facing forward to rear at any point, make sure you read the instructions given by the manufacturer to determine if it's safe to face forward. The manufacturer's guidelines will tell whether or the need for a tether exists and what the maximum weight and height are for that particular seat.
Once your child has reached the rear-facing car seat limitation They can now be in a forward-facing car seat using a harness and tether until they reach the top weight limit or height allowed by the car seat's manufacturer. When they've outgrown this, it is time to get the booster seat.
Seat booster
There is no set age or size at which kids are able to safely stop using a booster seat. The booster seat should be used until a child's vehicle belt fits properly. This could happen anywhere between 8 and 13 years old.
A booster can increase the height of a child, so that they can sit comfortably upright in the car. The shoulder part of a belt is set so that it sits close to the chest, but not above. The lap portion of the belt should rest on the thighs, not on the stomach. Booster seats come with a built-in belt guide to ensure that the belt is correctly positioned.
Booster seats come with or without backrests. The most popular booster seat is the high-back, which provides neck and head support for children. It's a good choice for vehicles with low seat backs and no head rests. Backless boosters are cheaper, but they don't provide neck or head support. Certain all-in-one boosters allow users to switch between booster and harness modes, making them suitable for children who are in harness mode until about 65 pounds. They can also be used as a booster seat for 100 pounds.
Some boosters are equipped with a lower anchors (LATCH) system that hooks onto the lower anchors of the vehicle and a tether, in the event that one is available. Others require the vehicle seat belt to secure them in their place. Go through the manual of your car to determine if you are able to use the lower anchors on your car, and read the instructions for booster seats to learn how to use them.
Some parents might be enticed to let their 3 year old 30 pounds child go straight to a booster seat since they're getting too tall for the harness car seat. But hurrying to "graduate" your child from the harness can be dangerous. Children could be injured or even killed if their belt is not secure enough in an accident.
Back seat
All children should sit in the back seat of a car for as long as they can with a child safety seat or booster seat that has been properly installed. Children who are too big for a rear facing car seat, or have exceeded the weight and height limits and should be switched to a forward-facing restraint that has a harness until they reach the maximum height for this type of seat.
After your baby has outgrown an infant car seat you can move them to convertible car seats or an all-in-one car seats with an option to rear-facing. These seats can typically be used for up to two years or until your child is over the seat's height and weight limit. If you have a vehicle with a middle-seat, install the car safety seat so that it is secured in this position using the lower anchor system or seat belt.
When your child grows out of their rear-facing seat you can put them in a forward-facing restraint with a harness. In general, these seats can be used up to 57 inches in height or until your child is at the weight and height limits of the seat. The instructions of the manufacturer or a sticker on the car seat will tell you how tall and heavy it can be.
If it is possible the older children should use a booster seat or lap belt. If not then they should use a back seat restraint that is located in the middle of the back seat. Additionally, they should not sit in the front seat when there's an active air bag. Children who sit in the front seats are more likely to be injured during collisions since their bodies are smaller.
It is a good idea to take your child to a local car seat clinic or inspection station for assistance in choosing and installing the best child safety seat. They can also determine if your child's seat has been removed due to safety concerns or flaws. You can then purchase one that's compatible with your car and your child's size. If you are unable to test the seat, see if it has a return policy.
