I've got four and a half year old twin boys. They travel in Britax Pinnacle harness to booster seats. When getting into the vehicle I usually buckle them in and tighten their straps. Upon leaving the vehicle I always loosen and unbuckle their straps. I have felt (assumed) that me buckling and tightening every time, as opposed to them buckling themselves, is the safest. I've noticed that some parents will leave the straps in the tightened position upon leaving the vehicle and then when it's time to get back in, they will allow the preschooler to buckle himself into his seat (no tightening because the straps were never loosened). Allowing my kids to buckle themselves had never crossed my mind. What is best and safest for my kiddos?
