    broken chest clip

    Hello I've emailed Sunshine Kids, but wondered if any of you could weigh in while I wait for a response. The top prong on my daughter's radian has snapped off. It's currently -40, so it doesn't surprise me :love: She is 4 (and 3 months) and about 45 pounds I think. She sits in a radian...

    more ? on 3rd row in Caravan

    Hello again! I realize appreciate having somewhere to ask all this. Though I've had kids in carseats for 7 years, this van is really confusing things. And I thought a van would make things easier! My Caravan is a 2006. It has 1 latch in the 3rd row, it's off centre towards the driver's...

    booster + caravan suggestions, please

    Hello! My oldest is 7; 47", 46 pounds. She rides in a hb monterey in the 2nd row of the caravan. I'd like her in the 3rd row but the belt twists/ bunches in the belt guide. It doesn't seem very safe annd it's difficult for her to get it properly tightened each time - fortunately it fits...

    evenflo booster

    Hello again I often see the graco turbobooster recommended as a high backed booster, and I wonder what its advantages over the evenflo booster are. I'd asked my mother in law to get the turbobooster for me, for our Christmas visit (my oldest is 6, currently 40- 41 pounds, 43+ inches and...

    boosters and LATCH

    In the next year or so my oldest will be moving to a booster (age 6-7). I know very little about boosters, so I'm starting to think about them now. At this point I'm intending to buy one that can be used with LATCH, but have a question about use. My van has LATCH in three positions - centre...

    boosters - age vs. weight (o/t AB thread)

    A kind of off topic to the thread about the booster law in Alberta- My oldest will be 6 in September and weighs about 37 -38 pounds without shoes etc. on. She's harnessed at home and still has a few inches of growing room in her radian. However, we're looking at buying carseats to leave at...

    Question flying westjet with 2+ carseats - help needed!

    Hello! I've been flying with two carseats on both Air Canada and WestJet for 2 years (several trips on each). The biggest problem I've ever had has been if they'll 'let' me put one radian in the window seat and one in the aisle seat, so that I can reach both children. In many cases when I...

    Cross Border Travel

    Totally hypothetical here - Over the summer we were travelling over the border (Ontario to Michigan) and I was trying to figure out how on earth the logistics would work to replace the seats should we be in an accident. We were too far from the border to easily send one adult back to Canada to...

    22 vs. 23 months?

    Hello all My 22 month old has suddenly jumped to 29 pounds! I've weighed her several times over the past few days and it's a consistent weight other than 1 time the scale said 28. I was planning to put her forward facing at 23 months for a trip, so we can take the car with better fuel...

    totally hypothetical, in Canada

    I'm not even pregnant with our 3rd, but I'm excited about the new carseats coming to Canada and am trying to figure out what I *would* do. My girls are 21 months (RF, Radian) and 4 1/2 (FF Radian). The baby is about 27 pounds in a radian that rf to 30 pounds and ff to 48. The older one is...
