Hi all,

I have a presentation I've put together, but I need some photos of c-s.org kiddos. (Right now I have my daycare kiddos in there, but I only have permission to use those photographs in limited circumstances.) If you post your photograph in this thread, you agree 1) to have it included in this presentation, 2) to have the presentation used by myself in CPS teachings at various venues, and 3) to have the presentation shared with other CPS technicians/advocates, who may then themselves use it in CPS teachings.

I need photos of the following (greyed out stuff I am good on ):

*Two-year-old, in a RF seat and not in a seat (playing, etc)
*Older RFer (3.5-4yo) playing, and 3 shots in a seat: overview, head room, leg room
*FFer (preferably 4-5yo) in a mainstream, inexpensive seat (ie Scenera)
*6-7yo with and without a booster, showing belt-fit comparison
*2 Photographs of booster riders, one of whom is older/larger/nearly 5-stepping
*A child 5-stepping in a seatbelt

Thanks in advance for any help!

I could take pictures of a 3 year old RF and a 6 year old in a booster today, heck I even vacuumed out my van yesterday!

That would be perfect, thanks! How big is your 3yo? If (s)he is a decent size (ie, not a total peanut,) would you mind grabbing a pic out of the car, and head and leg room as well?

It's frustrating, I have giant kids who provide the perfect counterpart to "my kids are too big to RF" (2.5yo who is 36lbs and pics of a 3y11m 44.8lb 42" tall child, lol,) but their parents aren't comfortable with their pics being distributed. I can't blame them, but it makes it hard to share the presentation, lol!

I'm visiting J tonight, he's only 21 months but he's huge- 33 pounds & 36 inches. If you're interested in his pictures given his age I'll see if mom is agreeable to having his pic shared outside of c-s.o

Marcie, what giant-seated vehicle do you have that you can get a TF, Frontier and Radian 3-across in?! Holy cow!

FireMom, do you have a pic of your 4yo out of the car seat around the same age -- standing, playing, etc? (Can be at a similar time, as long as he is roughly the same size.) That pic of him is actually perfect, you can see his head *and* leg room... I'm trying to give an idea of what the kid "really" looks like so skeptic parents (and there are always some, lol,) don't think it's only peanuts that have the ability to RF past a year. (Less as, "you should RF your 4yo," and more as, "if this Big Kid can RF, your toddler sure can!")

Bri, I think I am good on 2yos -- thank you so much though! I really appreciate it!

Zactayaus & Chely, your boys are soooo cute! I think I need to work those pictures in somehow, ha ha! Giant-torosed babies!

I grabbed a few others, too. Thanks, ladies! I greyed out what I am good on up top and left the ones I still need normal. I appreciate it so much!

Montana -- if it's not too much trouble, you could you take pics of your 3yo *FF* in the OnsideAir?

Ha ha ha ha ha 1992 Chevrolet Suburban it's old, paid for and so far, haven't found a 3 across I cannot get in there (I am actually worried because I'm about to "downsize" vehicles to a 97 Park Avenue that my seats won't all fit)...

I have a great pic of my just turned 8yo that shows why it's not a good idea for car sleepers to be in a no back booster. Let me know if you are interested and I'll post it.

This is my peanut-y daughter (DD1) on her 4th birthday RFing in a Scenera.

She's grown a TON in the last 18 months and no longer fits in it RFing, and BARELY fits in it FFing. I passed it down to a friend of mine.

I'll give ya booster pics... I am using ones of Ruthie in the vivo, but also of her in her Evenflo Big Kid as I think it's good to show seats that the general public has easy access to for these things

- Age 6

- Age 7


Jeffrey age 9.5 4'9 and 100 lbs in seatbelts and boosters (combi Dakota in the van, Harmony Literider in the car)

This shows how he passes in some vehicles, but not all... which I think is a key point.

and Damian - this pic was taken last year, when he was 10.5 and only about 5'2.

this one you could crop to get just him... I'm too lazy... it was taken when he was almost 10 and about 5' tall.... you can see his knees and his legs better as it's a more full shot.

Here is a picture of my 4 1/2 year old on a Nautilus Elite, Gen65 & a Maestro.

I can get you a couple more of him in either of the 3 above seats if you need something better. Just let me know.
