Why are baby car seats so important
Looking for Baby Travel System? You are looking at the right place! Purchasing the right Baby Travel System for you is probably one of the best investment you will do regarding its convenience, but mostly baby’s safety. When choosing a Baby Travel System, the baby car seat is the most important element to look at. While finding a good stroller constitute a convenience, a baby car seat is essential for your little safety, because kids are so fragile and are easily injured, even in case of a small impact.
Years ago, there we no or almost no concerns about car safety issues. It was okay for a child not to wear their seat belts, or for mom to carry baby on her lap while the car was moving! And studies about road safety? Close to none!.
Things have changed since, and in our best interest. We have developed awareness for car safety issues. We have developed new ways of protecting ourselves in case of accidents and new ways of protecting our kids. Being extremely vulnerable, it is important to buy the proper seats for your baby or kid. Safety issues in a car a now regulated. However, with so many changes in our regulations every other year, parents often become confused in what is now considered safe.
Buckle up you children, it’s the law!
It serious: In many countries, you now need to use an adapted baby car seat, it’s the law. Same goes for toddlers and kids. Most countries regulation look at the size of the kids in a sitting position (from the bottom to the top of the head) and not their age. This basically mean that if your eight years old child is of small stature, he could be sitting is the same car seat model as the younger friend.
Baby car seats
And for the newborn (by definition babies who weigh below 9 kilograms-20 pounds or who measure less than 66 cm-26 in), they also need their proper car seat. The baby car seat has to be installed in the back seat, in the opposite direction to the traffic. This type of positioning is intended to give your baby a better protection to the neck and the chest in the event of an impact or a sudden braking. Until the child is able to stand on his own (about 12 months), keep the same arrangement.
Put the infant seat at a 45 degrees angle, so the baby is not completely lying on his back nor completely in an upright position. If you can not incline the seat at 45 degrees, simply roll up a towel under the seat to fix the angle to 45 degrees.
Remember, a 50 km/h or 30miles/h will multiply the weight of any object in motion by 35! This means that when a collision occurs, a 9 kilograms/20pounds baby now weighs 315kilograms/700pounds! If you infant it not well seated, he could be flying down to the dashboard or even be ejected from the vehicle.
Therefore, when purchasing your baby travel system, make sure to verify that you it comes with a proper car seat for you baby, as it could save your child’s life in case of an impact.
