I work in a daycare and am doing a bulletin board for parents on general carseat safety. The goal is to keep it as simple, straightforward, and as non-overwhelming as possible. My plan is to start with a "most common use/installation mistakes" kind of blurb and then expand on each one a little more in depth - that way they can read beyond the most important stuff if they choose, but not feel like stuff is being crammed down their throat (esp stuff like ERF and EH that likely NONE of them have ever even heard of!).
I've been searching like mad to find educational sources vs anecdotal sources to make the information more valuable/reliable to our parents ... especially since I'm not a tech or professional "in the know" in any way, just a parent with an avid interest. They might literally only have a few minutes to look at the board so I can't overwhelm them with paragraphs - and pics/diagrams would be great! However, I'm having a hard time coming up with a list of the most common mistakes first that is also fairly current (and most preferably Canadian). Is there a direct source stating the number of incorrectly installed/used carseats in Canada?
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I would be forever indebted! :thumbsup:
