General Guidelines

 

Infants 

 

Infant seats and rear-facing convertible seats

 

Infants should ride rear-facing until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their car safety seat’s manufacturer. At a minimum, children should ride rear-facing until they have reached at least 1 year of age and weigh at least 20 pounds. When children reach the highest weight or length allowed by the manufacturer of their infant-only seat, they should continue to ride rear-facing in a convertible seat.

 

 

Toddlers/preschoolers

 

Convertible seats and forward-facing seats with harnesses 

 

It is best for children to ride rear-facing as long as possible to the highest weight and height allowed by the manufacturer of their convertible seat. When they have outgrown the seat rear-facing, they should use a forward-facing seat with a full harness as long as they fit. 

 

 

School-aged children 

 

Booster seats 

 

 

Booster seats are for older children who have outgrown their forward-facing car safety seats. Children should stay in a booster seat until adult belts fit correctly (usually when a child reaches about 4' 9" in height and is between 8 and 12 years of age).

 

 

Older children

 

Seat belts 

 

Children who have outgrown their booster seats should ride in a lap and shoulder seat belt in the back seat until 13 years of age.

 

   
HealthyChildren.org

 One of the main goals of HealthyChildren.org is to bring the American Academy of Pediatrics's award-winning parenting content to the Web in a parent-friendly,  site separate from aap.org. To that end, the site was      
built and launched with a wide selection of previously published content from a variety of AAP consumer products. The site launched  2,000 pages of content covering over 300 health topics. The           
primary navigation for the site allows parents to search for information based on the age and developmental stage of their child.  Content was selected to offer a robust amount of information for each      
age and stage as well as the other major navigational areas.
