Booster for 6 yr. Old

I am watching one of my friend's children for a weekend in September and she doesn't have any kind of car seat/booster for the six year old. I saw a Evenflo Trenton Big Kid Booster on sale for $30 at Kmart with a Jan 08 manufacture date. It is a high back booster. Should this be good for him? I'm not sure about height or weight but he looks to be about average for his age. The other options are a NBB from Graco for $25 or a NBB from Evenflo for $20. What option would be best?

If the only options are between an Evenflo Big Kid and two backless boosters, I'd definitely do the Big Kid. :thumbsup: A backless will not provide any side impact protection, and a highback should provide some level of side impact protection (deeper wings and EPS foam are a plus; the Big Kid has pretty shallow wings and no EPS foam).

Is KMart your only shopping option? Do you have a Wal-Mart nearby? Wal-Mart usually has the Graco TurboBooster for around $30, and it has deeper wings than the Big Kid, and EPS foam.
