Car Seats for Toddlers

Hi we are Dan and Judy on behalf of Expert Village in this segment we are going to talk about the types of car seats. The next style of seat is called a combination seat. This seat here this is used for the older larger children this is only for forward facing it can not be used rear facing. It usually comes with a hardness at some point depending on the seat it self when you exceed the weight using the hardness you remove the hardness and use the vehicle seatbelt through what is called a comfort clip system like this where the shoulder portion comes through here. It could be adjusted higher or lower depending on the child's size and the belt would cross here and go into the buckle so you would have the waist and shoulder section like that. The next style of seat is called a booster seat it comes in two varieties the backless booster or a back booster. These typically go from anywhere from 40-80 to a 100 pounds depending again on the seat specifications. These are not hardness in the vehicle they are used with the vehicle seat belts only, The difference on a the back booster and the backless booster is this back this is could be good if you have a child that falls asleep a lot because this keeps the child up right. You have these side wings that they can sleep against, this also has the comfort rotating for the shoulders strap so it is good. A lot of these backless boosters comes with a strap that attaches to the base and can be used to help position that shoulder belt across the shoulder between the shoulder and the neck. The last style we are going to talk about today is a special made style this is right safe vest this is used for special needs children and or in a position where you have only a lap situation and you can install a top tethered and this could be used to give them a 5. hardness where they have the lap support and the shoulder support. It is also good for children who don't stand in place because they could be tethered and hooked in and helps retain them helps keeps them in place.
