Shopping for a Baby Car Seat
One of the most important baby gear parents will need is a car seat.
A car seat will ensure a child's safety in the event of a crash. So, obviously, it is very important to choose carefully. And this seemingly simple task could get very confusing. There are so many types (forward facing, rear-facing rear/forward facing), models, price range and styles (seat type, stay-in car base, etc.) to choose from. And there is no one brand or model that could answer every parent's requirement. To date, some of the big manufacturer that make car seats are Graco, Peg Perego, Evenflo, Cosco and Baby Trend, among others.
Confusing, eh? If you need a bit more help, check these links out:
Parents.com helps you in Choosing and Using a Car Seat.
"Each year hundreds of young children are killed in car crashes and thousands more are injured seriously enough to go to the emergency room. Using car safety seats and seat belts correctly is the best way to prevent this from happening to your child". Let the American Academy of Pediatrics explain to you how.
Answer a few questions and let iVillage tell you if you are indeed car seat savvy. This could give you an idea if you really know the ins and outs of car seat safety.
Remember, we need to choose the best car seat that fit our needs AND, even more importantly, we need to make sure that we use it properly.
