DH and I are going to Ireland for a week. My aunt is taking care of 2 of my girls. Tabitha-15 is taller then me so she is in the seatbelt. Abigail is 9 and while there are a few vehicles she passes the 5 step test, in most she does not. She may be visiting with my cousin from time to time and in different vehicles. I am worried they will forget her booster if they have to move it between cars.
Would you leave a second booster just in case? It wouldn't be intentional on there part but it is a real possibility. My cousins are not carseat savvy but my aunt knows it is very important to me.

If possible, I'd run to Walmart and grab a $9.88 Harmony Literider and just leave 2 of them. Make sure your dd knows she has to use it also, she may be more likely to remember than they are.

I'd also let your relatives know that if they have to buy another $10 booster for your dd that you will happily pay them back when you return.

I have an extra booster but I think I will go buy a second Harmony booster so that if I don't get it back right away it isn't a big deal. She uses the Turbo booster in my van and the Harmony in dh's car. Thanks ladies. I was worried I was being silly.
