Question about boosters

So my oldest is in a booster, she's 7, 54lbs and 50IN tall. She is in the evenflo big kid booster (but I tried her in the turbobooster, and had the same problem). She still has some height in the booster, BUT if it goes any higher in my van, it will be touching the ceiling. Is that safe? or at that point would you put her in a NBB? I'm guessing it will be a year at least before I move her up again, she just moved up yesterday. (unless she has some random growth spurt). I don't know, WWYD? I have a harmony literider that she uses for the once a month (if even that) trips in my husbands car, and would be willing to eventually use that when she outgrows the big kid booster.

Touching the ceiling is fine. When the booster can't be adjusted any higher and her shoulder is above the belt guide (the bottom edge of the belt guide for most boosters), then the high back is outgrown.

Good to know! I really don't like the idea of her riding full time in a NBB, but now I know I've got plenty of time to figure it out!!! :)

The Big Kid can be converted into a backless booster after your dd outgrows the back. The back can come off and then just use the seat part.
