My mom is doing day care for a lot of the neihborhood kids this summer. I volunteered to help take them all to the park a couple days a week. (because I'm a total CS nerd and I thought it would be fun to figure out the CS puzzle)
Thought I would share the fun and invite all you other car seat addicts to play too.
Here's what we have to deal with, keep in mind the goal is best practice whenever possible.
Kids:
3 month old, 10ish lbs
2 yr old, 25 lbs
4 yr old, 28 lbs
5 yr old, 55 lbs
5 yr old, 64 lbs
7 yr old, 38-51 lbs
7 yr old, 60ish lbs
7 yr old, 60ish lbs
9 yr old, 88 lbs
15 yr old, 120ish lbs
Seats:
2 MA's
Intera
laptop
Turbo Booster
Body Guard
Cosco no back
Radian
Husky
Snug ride
Confidence
Cars:
90 GMC Surburban
l/s, l, l/s (narrow seat,have done protek, MA, TB in this position just barely)
l/s, l, l/s (l/s drivers side has a lazy shoulder belt retractor)
Other considerations, no tethers, we use 3rd row. good locations for rfing tethers in any position. low seat backs, shoulder blade high on 11yr old.
F350
l/s, l, l/s
l/s, l (this is front row)
Tethers in all rear seat positions, airbag on off switch
Ok go for it!!!
