Booster Seats

Hi Ladies.. I am new to this forum. My babies will be four next month and we need to upgrade to Booster Seats. Can I have some suggestions as to which ones are highly recommended?

Thanks

 

Welcome
We got the Graco high back boosters. They are about $50 at Walmart, I think.

 

I just ordered some Graco High Back Boosters from Amazon for $39. They were a clearance print but that saved me $20 and they are eligible for free shipping as well.

 

We have the Graco Turbo boosters in dh car. Still use the Triumph in mine.

 

I have the kind that are backless (just a seat with arms), and while they are very convenient and the boys can easily buckle themselves in, the only drawback I've found is that there's no head support when they drift off to sleep on longer trips. If I were to go back and do it again, I'd buy ones with backs.

 

We have the high back Graco Turbo boosters as well.

DD was having the same issue. We got a high back booster and gave the backless one to the grandparents for shorter trips.

 

Ditto the Gracos, but wishing I'd purchased the Evenflo (I think) Big Kid Booster. It has the little night lights for reading, and the little arms go up and down. the graco's arms do not move and the kids either have to reach over or under to buckle. Just fyi. Not a big deal, but just a little thing that "bugs".

 

Thanks for the suggestions.. DH and I will be going to Babies R Us this weekend to check out the Graco and the Evenflow.

This is the one we have as well.

 

We have the graco backless booster.

 

did they outgrow their car seats already?

I ask because my boys will be 4 in June and size wise qualify for boosters, but they haven't nearly outgorwn their car seats - hold up to 65 lbs so I don't plan on changing them.
