Hello all,
My husband and I have said for a while now that as long as our son was showing the ability to be mindful in a booster and sit properly we would move him from harness to booster at 6. Well, his 6th birthday is looming and while we would like to put him in a booster and help him learn to be mindful.... We take long 8+ hr trips at least twice a yr. So he still falls asleep in the car and is a rambunctious boy. So we have been rethinking moving him to an exclusive booster.
He is in an Evenflo Maestro right now and if he gains 4 more lbs then he will be at the harness weight limit. If we move him to a harness-booster combo. Which is the best/easiest for switching out; harness to booster? Or would the Recaro booster keep him in place well enough for long trips? Not really comfortable with his size/weight being only in a booster. But I have a hard time stomaching buying a harness seat he can still fit in AND a booster. TIA for any advice!!!
Oh!!! He is 46 lbs and approx 47 in. tall.
