subject: Things To Take Your Babies And Toddlers Out To Town With [print this page] Babies & toddlers should live in an environment that is stimulating for their senses and their intelligence. This is how children develop their love for knowledge later on. That is one good reason why babies should be taken for a stroll or a ride every so often. The new things they encounter develop their curiosity and their mind.
That is surely one things that you shouldn't be without if you have a baby in the house. Do not even think of bringing the baby along in your car if you don't have the safety devices that are appropriate.
A car seat should be comfortable enough so that the baby will not want to get out of it. Some baby car seats are badly made so that even if you give him his baby bottle, he will be crying or screaming depending on whether he has a mild or aggressive temperament. That is certainly going to distract your driving. The alternative is to bring some along to carry the baby while you drive.
Before purchasing your baby car seat, put baby in it for twenty minutes to see if he likes what he feels. You need to put on the straps for that test. If the seat is comfortable enough for him, inquire from the vendor whether that device is compliant with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for seat belts and child restrainers. Specifically that portion of the document is in part 571 standard 213.
These are infant seats for babies up to 22 pounds. They are comfortably attached and detached from their base without the possibility of waking up a sleeping infant. This type of seat is great for carrying sleeping babies in. They can easily be attached to universal strollers.
The best orientation to place new born babies in the car in is backwards. The reason is that cars rarely accelerate fast enough to bring the baby backwards forcibly. On the other hand, cars may come to sudden stops often as when they meet humps on the road or sudden obstacles in their path. With the baby's back facing the back rest of his seat, there is little chance he will be injured by a jolting stop.
Baby car seats which face front should be used by older babies. You have to remember to always fasten the child's seat belts. Do not be too confident that the force of suddenly stopping will not be strong enough to propel the baby forward and out of his seat.
These are made for slightly bigger babies of up to 30 pounds. These types of seats may be continuously adjusted to the growing dimensions of the child until he can seat himself comfortably into the regular car seat. Convertible toddler seats come in models that can be oriented towards the front or the back.
By the time babies reach 4 years of age, they have outgrown their baby seats but are not quite prepared to sit on the normal car seat. They will need a booster seat until they reach 8 years.
