 When
to use a forward-facing seat: if a child is at least 20 pounds and
at least one year old to about 40 pounds and about age four. The
harness straps should be at or above shoulder level. Most
convertible, forward-facing seats require use of the top slot for
forward-facing seats.
Notable: Most
parents don't realize the importance of changing child safety seats as
their children grow. There are four steps to keeping kids safe in a
vehicle: rear-facing child safety seats; forward-facing safety seats;
belt-positioning booster seats; and seat belts only when children reach
the safe height and weight to fit in them correctly.
