Great job! Tried to give you rep but I've given too much out already within 24 hours:)

Congrats Courtfrog2 for getting Stella featured--she's a cutie pie:)

It looks fabulous! I think I know the nit-pick. I felt this part could use a change.

In the infant section, instead of "to preferably to age two", it should say "preferably to at least age 2", like you have in the other sections.

That's a good one, but not what I was thinking!

My quibble is with "the longer children can stay in the harness, the safer they will be." (paraphrasing)

I've seen/heard of several parents interpreting that as "I should keep my kid in the harness that is below his shoulders/she is over the weight limit of, because using it over the limit is safer than a booster." And honestly past a certain age, the original statement is not true (or at least we don't know it is), much less this misinterpretation.

I would probably say, "The longer children can ride in a properly fitted 5-point harness, the more time they have to become ready to ride in a booster." Or something. I know that wording doesn't quite sound right but... You see the problem?

Thanks SO much for the pointers. I will definitely make those changes. I agree with both points and see where both of you are coming from. :) Thanks again!!! :)

Looks great!

Here is my nit-picking. Hope you don't mind. :eek:

In the section below, the age of 6 is in both comments.
I think it should say "a child from the age of *7*..." instead of 6.
However, maybe the actual law says it that way. If so, never mind!

A child age 1-6 years old must
be secured in a child restraint
system (a safety seat or booster
seat -- NOT a seat belt).

• A child from the age of 6 up to
the age of 11 must be secured
in a child restraint system or by
a safety belt.


Also, maybe should repeat "seat belt" instead of "safety belt"
