Car Seats & Strollers Articles

As baby strollers are bound to be put to good use for the first several years of a child’s life, it’s only reasonable to do your research prior to purchasing the best baby stroller for your child (and you). At first, it may seem that there’s such a wide range of strollers and baby prams that it will be impossible to make your decision.

When browsing for the most ideal model, parents are often faced with a tough choice: should we go with a heavier stroller that flies over bumpy terrains but gets stuck on the stairs and in aisles, or should we pick the lighter one that won’t handle off-road rides that well?

And those really are some of the questions that you need to ask yourself - where will you live, where will you take the baby for a walk, how many kids you plan on having, which transportation will be you using, and so on.

How you can keep your Child Cool and comfortable in their car seats during those longer rides

Admit it - there is nothing more frustrating than being stuck in traffic on the hottest day of the year. How do you think your little ones feel in the back seat? They’ll be surrounded with thick fabric, tightly strapped, and with limited room to move.

Fortunately for you,  there are simple ways to keep the kids cool and comfy that will make the next road trip, or even just a short trip to the supermarket, much more enjoyable. 

When a child is approx. 4 years old, and their shoulders are above the lower shoulder height marker on the seat, it’s time to pick a booster seat for them. If they’re not quite there, keep them in a seat with an inbuilt harness until they are. When your child’s shoulders reach the upper shoulder height marker, at approx. 8 years of age, it’s time for them to come out of the booster car seat. Safety and comfort are still as vitally important as it was when you purchased your baby’s first car seat. Each child is different, and one booster seat might not fit the bill for all.
