Booster advice for the grandkids!

I should probably move soon on getting Hannah and Brett boostered. They do fine with me and they ride in no back boosters of some kind with their dad. They are probably in lap belts.:(

Anyway, I had originally thought they'd just switch to GN in booster mode. I know Brett fits. Haven't tried Hannah. I like that you can use latch with them, too. However only one position has latch in the rear of their Sienna. I think it's a 04 - old body style. I think both outboards have top tether.

My concern is that they won't be able to buckle up themselves since the seat is kind of bulky. So, has anyone used the GN as a booster at all? Is that totally untrue?

Or what other booster might be easy to buckle for them?

What about the Parkway SG? My friend has one for her 5 year old, and he buckles himself in no problem.

I have no clue about the GN.

My five year old can buckle himself into the Nauti.

I imagine whether they can or not will depend on the buckle stalks.

The Nauti is perfectly safe to use without being LATCHed.

Yes, of course I realize that the GN is safe to use without latch. I didn't mean that it wasn't. But it's a big heavy projectile when not is use and not buckled in, which I'm pretty certain would not happen.

I just wondered mostly if kids can buckle it because it's bulky. I can't recall what buckle stalks are in her van.
