Here are a few videos, though there are a lot more.

<removed rearfacing videos> I didn't read the OP request well enough and thought it was ERF instead of EH.

She's looking for videos on Extended Harnessing, not ERF. ;)

OP, may I ask why you are specifically looking for videos on Extended Harnessing (EH)?

There is no evidence stating that a five-point harness is safer than a properly used booster, as long as the child can sit properly in the booster the entire time (and of course, they fit properly). There isn't any reason for a mature, responsible, and capable child to be in a harness when they are able to be in a booster. You should keep them harness until they are at a capable boostering age, not necessarily "as long as possible".

There's a simple answer for that. :)

Explain to him that before a child can go into a booster seat, they must be able to sit properly 100% of the time. If they aren't sitting properly at the moment of a crash, it could be detrimental. Many children are not mature enough to sit properly until they are closer to 5-6 years of age. Yes, the booster seat may say that they are able to use it at the age of 1 (yes, 1 year of age :rolleyes:), it doesn't mean that they are safe in the booster. When a child is booster ready varies from child to child, too. So if your son is a wiggle worm, yes, he absolutely needs that harness to keep him safe. No question about that.

This is the only EH video I utilize. I know there is the Kyle David Miller one too, but there is some debate on its usefulness so I typically stick to the Bella Video. This is good for the younger kids 3-4 range.
