I have a very petite 5 1/4-year-old daughter who is currently in a Britax Roundabout. She weighs 34 lbs. and is just hitting 40 inches tall, so she is finally outgrowing the Roundabout on height. I'm trying to figure out which seat to get her next and price isn't an issue. Should I get her another harnessed seat such as a Radian or Safeguard Go, or should I get her a high-back booster that starts at 30 lbs like the Monterey? I want her to be safe, comfortable, not feel like a baby, and I'd also love it if there was a seat she could actually buckle/unbuckle herself. She's in Kindergarten (and most of her friends are in boosters or no car seats at all - scary and illegal), but I feel like we're holding up the school car line when I have to get out and strap her in. It's not as big of a deal when she's in Kindergarten, but she'll be in this seat for years given her size and at some point she's not going to want her mom to be buckling her in every time. Extra points if it's easy to travel with and install. If it matters I have one other daughter who is 3 1/2 and also in a Roundabout, and I drive a 2007 Acura MDX. My daughter is mature and likes to follow the rules. Any recommendations on seats to consider? Thanks so much!
