Smaller children and babies should always be
restrained in a child or infant restraint. The

the right type and size for your child. A very
young child's hip bones are so small that a
regular belt might not stay low on the hips, as it

child's abdomen. In a crash the belt would apply
force right on the child's abdomen, which could
cause serious or fatal injuries. So, be sure that
any child small enough for one is always
Droperly restrained in a child or infant restra
Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! That includes
infants and all children smaller than adult size. In fact,
the law in every state and Canadian province says
children up to some age must be restrained while in a
vehicle.
