The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety just released their 2011 ratings for booster seat safety. Their ratings identify boosters most likely to provide good lap and shoulder belt fit. safety belts are designed with adults in mind, not kids, but when a booster seat is doing its job, the vehicle belt will fit a child correctly. That means the lap belt will lie flat across a child's upper thighs, not across the soft abdomen, and the shoulder belt will cross snugly over the middle of a child's shoulder. BEST BETS are seats that provide good fit for typical 4 to 8 year-olds in almost any car, minivan, or SUV.
Real Baby is proud to carry several of the booster seats listed on the IHS Best Bets list!
