Having a Baby Soon? Need a Carseat?

So you're going to a baby, it's an exciting time, and you plan to spend much money for the preparation of his or her arrival. Comfy Baby Blankets, fancy baby bedding, trendy baby clothes.

Very often they push the purchase until the last minute. But it is one of theimportant items for your baby. We'll show you what you need to do to safely bring home your precious baby.

1st Do not ever, ever buy a used child seat

You can see it on ebay, you can see it on craigslist. The seller says the baby has grown and will sell the car seat for $ 20, the additional locking base with too! Well ... do not buy it! Do not even go buy used from a store. The fact is that you do not know the history of the seat, whether itwere in a crash before. If so, chances are that place is this structurally defective and unsafe for your baby. It is not worthwhile at any price risk your baby in, and especially not worth it when a good child $ 80 can be so much had to.

2nd Spend a lot of money on non car seat

Some parents want to spend, and that's good. But why spend more than necessary? Are not graded according to how expensive child.They are protected classified how well your baby is. Spend a lot of money on the seat, but not install it properly or not properly strapping your baby in your baby any good. Do your research on the quality and construction of a seat, and compare the various functions. Buy for quality, not price.

3rd You buy a car seat for at least three months in advance

Typically, the second Trimester the most convenient for expectantMothers. Use it! Shop around and compare prices. Of course, you can shop online. But realistically, you do not want to consider what your baby is in the riding? Whether it be comfortable? What materials and extras they come in?

Approximately 80-90% of car seats are installed incorrectly in the U.S. prior to check a seat. Even if you have confidence in your installation, it is still a good idea to check it out. This car seat events are hard to come by, and it is bestat an early schedule. Typical locations are checked based Highway Patrol stations, police stations and several car dealerships. Call them and ask for an appointment.

5th You learn how your baby in the car seat belt

Some parents think that they will receive once the seat, handle basic installation check the "job you have done. No, no and no! The baby is still strapped to the seat by, and the proper volume is essential for the properFunctioning of the entire system car seat.

"Little One"-- jugnutgut/reverie original collaboration

This song is extra special. Rob (jugnutgut) sent me the lyrics to this song with the incredible story behind them: "There's quite a story behind this one, the son and his wife of my wife's lifelong friend have adopted a baby. They were in a car wreck several years ago and the car flipped over into a creek. Coreen would have drowned in the water but Jeff struggled to undo her seat belt and pulled her out. A few years later Coreen became very ill and was unable to have children. So.. many months of raising money, garage sales and donations.. and they have a baby. :) And this song was written for them. " Lyrics: Rob (jugnutgut) Music: Karen (revelinginreverie)

LATCH System Education - Slow Motion

According to a recent NHTSA study, 3 out of 4 kids are not as secure in the car as they should be because their car seats are not being used correctly. One way a parent or caregiver can help increase their childs safety in the car is by using the LATCH system (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) to secure the car seat to the vehicle. The LATCH system, required on all car seats and most vehicles manufactured after September 1, 2002, was developed to make it easier to correctly install car seats without seatbelts. The car seats have lower attachments which fasten into anchors in the backseat of the vehicle and an upper strap or tether on the car seat which attaches to an upper attachment point in the vehicle. The PSAs, part of the Ad Councils longstanding occupant protection education campaign with NHTSA, educate parents and caregivers about what the LATCH system is and the safety benefits it provides for your children. Created pro bono by The Richards Group, the new PSAs are designed to raise awareness among all parents and caregivers, about the importance of securing their child properly in their car seats. Additionally NHTSA and the Ad Council have partnered with Disney on a complementary campaign, including TV and outdoor PSAs, which feature music and favorite characters from Baby Einstein ™, designed to educate a new generation of parents on the LATCH system. The ads direct viewers to www.safercar.gov for more information.

Three Ways to Deal With Poopy Diapers to Help Keep You Sane

Changing diapers is one of the most feared aspects of having a baby; for new parents, or those expecting their first child, the idea of having to clean up someone else's poop is not enviable. However it is only one of the problems of having a baby, and in context it is one of the most minor problems. By using some of the tips here, you will eliminate the fear and stigma and realize that you have nothing to fear.

A good quality diaper

For your baby's comfort and your own ease of cleaning, good diapers are a must. Poor quality ones can irritate your baby and make them unhappy and uncooperative, but when your baby is comfortable you will have a much easier job. Also, there will be less irritation in your baby's nether regions, so dealing with mess there will be easier and cause your baby less upset.

Baby wipes

Soft, absorbent and friendly baby wipes are great for cleaning messes, and because of their design they will not irritate your baby and make them easier to deal with. Many types are available with balm, to sooth and calm any irritation that may have already occurred.

Proper disposal

A big problem with dealing with poopy diapers is in the disposal. If you are out and about and your baby has an accident, finding somewhere to change them and to dispose of the dirty diaper should be your first priority. It is even harder if you are using used cloth diapers. If there is no where in the area you could use, then you may be out of luck, but most restaurants or business will have the appropriate facilities. Many of these establishments will not mind letting you use their facilities, but an important thing is not to leave it too long, as this can be unhealthy for your baby.

Our (Jonas Brothers) Song!

See below for lyrics! A song we wrote about the Jonas Brothers, to the tune of Taylor Swift's "Our Song". I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel The other on my heart I look around, turn the radio down He says baby is something wrong? I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song And he says... [Chorus:] Our song is a crowd of screamin' fans, You sneakin' back, and tappin' on my dressin' room When we're on the phone and I talk real slow Cause it's late and my brothers don't know Our song is the way I live Always on tour with that Miley Cyrus And when I got home ... before I say amen Asking God if I can see you again I was walking up the front porch steps after everything that day Had gone all wrong and been trampled on And lost and thrown away Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed I almost didn't notice all the roses And the note that said... [Chorus] I've heard every album, listened to the radio Waited for something to come along That was as good as his songs... Cause our song is a crowd of screamin' fans Sneakin' back, and tapping on his dressin' room When we're on the phone and he talks real slow Cause it's late and his brothers don't know Our song is the way he laughs The first date "man, I didn't kiss him, and I should have" And when I got home, before I said amen Asking God if I could date him again I was riding shotgun with my hair undone In the front seat of ...

The Universal Car Seat Carrier - A Great Choice For Transporting Your Baby

Are you a parent-to-be, or the parent of a newborn? You may already know that taking your baby in and out of their infant car seat to put them in a stroller can be a real hassle. The baby may be sleeping or fussing and you really don't want to bother them. Strollers with travel systems - where the infant seat clips directly onto the stroller - are handy, but can be bulky and expensive. Before you purchase a stroller for your newborn, you may want to take a look at a great alternative: the universal car seat carrier.

What is a universal car seat carrier? Also called a stroller frame, this device is essentially a metal frame consisting of wheels and a base onto which you clip your baby's infant car seat quickly and easily.

There are several advantages to using universal car seat carriers. They are compact and lightweight and can accommodate most major brands of infant seats without the use of tools. Like standard strollers, they can come with useful features such as a removable parent tray with cup holder, a storage basket, and plastic swivel wheels for one-handed steering. They are great for use in shopping malls, on paved sidewalks or paths. They also come in double and triple models for twins and triplets, although these are harder to find. And best of all, universal seat carriers are much less expensive than stroller travel systems (from $60-$110) and leave your baby peaceful and undisturbed.

There are a few disadvantages to universal seat carriers, but they are definitely outweighed by the advantages listed above. So what are they? Car seat carriers have limited features and can only be used until your baby outgrows their infant seat (at 30 lb, under one year of age usually). They are not suitable for use on rough terrain or for jogging, and great care must be taken to securely clip the seat onto the carrier to avoid accidents.

All in all, a universal car seat carrier is a great choice for transporting your baby during their first year of life. Having one permits you to get out of the house quickly and easily with your newborn during those first few hectic months. And when the fog finally lifts, you can take your time to figure out what type of stroller you'll need when your baby is older (standard, all-terrain, jogger, umbrella, etc.). Universal car seat carriers are manufactured by companies such as Kolcraft, Baby Trend and Graco and are sold at many baby equipment stores or online.

Car Seat Buying Advice and Guide - Car Seats For Babies and Children

Choosing the Correct Car Seat

Choosing the correct car seat can often be very confusing as not only have you to ensure the correct size car seat for your child but that the car seat that you choose is also a correct fit for your car. Selecting a car seat that scores highly in the many test reports available is all very well but selecting a car seat that fits your car properly is probably the more important feature for your childs safety.

If you are in any doubt about which car seat is the correct fit for your car consult the car seat manufacturers web site as many of the leading manufacturers such as Britax, Maxicosi and Renoluxwill have a Fit Finder guide detailing which of their car seats are most suitable for your model of car.

All child restraints sold in the UK must conform to the United Nations ECE Regulation R44.03 or later version of the standard and must be clearly marked.

Choosing a car seat that is suitable for your childs weight and height.
Group 0+ Infant Carriers

Group 0: for babies upto 10 kgs (22 lbs) approximately from birth to 6-9 months.

Group 0+: for babies upto 13 kg (29lbs) approximately from birth to 12-15 months.

Group 0+ Infant Carriers

This group of car seat can be used in the front or rear of the car but CANNOT be used in the front passenger seat if there is a passenger airbag. It is safer to put them in the rear. Rearward-facing seats provide greater protection for the baby's head, neck and spine than forward-facing seats.

Babies should be in a rearward facing car seat and should not be placed in a forward-facing seat until they weigh at least 9 kgs and can sit up unaided. Babies should be kept in a rearward-facing seat for as long as possible. Once your child is above the maximum weight for a rearward-facing seat or the top of their head is above the top of the seat they should be moved into a forward-facing seat. It is not important if their knees are bent in the seat, provided they are still within the seat's weight range.

Convenience factor with this stage of car seat is that most models will have a carry handle enabling you to easily remove and carry the baby without removing them from the car seat especially handy if the baby is asleep and may also fit onto corresponding pushchair converting it to a travel system.

Group 0+ and 1 Car Seats

Suitable for Babies upto 18kg, Birth to 4 years approximately.
Ideal car seats if you do not have to constantly remove them from car to car or car to home. They are a much larger seat designed to protect your baby from newborn to 4 years approximately. The car seat is used rearward facing when using for a baby up to 9kgs. The car seat can be used forward facing once the baby has reached 9 to 13kg weight. Baby does not have to be forward facing until they are 13 kgs. It is important to check that this style of child car seat is compatible with your vehicle when fitted forward AND rearward facing. You must never leave baby asleep unattended in any car.

Forward-facing child seat

Group 1: for children weighing 9-18 kgs (20-40 lbs) approximately from 9 months - 4 years.

Once a child has outgrown a rearwards facing seat, the best option is to use a Group 1 seat with an integral harness, the large area of the harness helps to reduce the risk of injury if there is a crash. The bottom attachment between the legs will also prevent the child from sliding under, and out of the harness. They can be used in the front or rear of the car but it is safer to put them in the rear especially if there is a passenger airbag in the front. Once again it is safest to keep children in this type of car seat until they have outgrown it.

Only move your child to a booster seat once they have exceeded the maximum weight for the child seat or the top of their head is higher than the top of the seat. If you intend to use this car seat between two cars please ensure that the model of car seat purchased is suitable for both cars. It maybe simpler to purchase two seats each one fitting the car perfectly rather than buying one seat which may not fit either car perfectly as great care is needed to follow the seat belt routings and tighten well. They can also be car specific for correct fitting and not every child seat fits every car.

With this in mind it maybe worth checking out ISOFIX fitting car seats. This is a system that is intended to make fitting child seats quick and simple. All new cars are manufactured with ISOFIX points built into them allowing ISOFIX child seats to be simply plugged into the ISOFIX points in the car. This is a very useful development as many people find it difficult to fit child seats correctly and many surveys have found that a high proportion of the child seats are not fitted securely enough. Most child seats are currently designed to be fitted by using a car's adult lap and diagonal seat belt (or sometimes, just a lap belt). However car seats, seat belts and their anchorages vary dramatically between different models of cars. Car seats have different shapes, some seat belts are much shorter than others, the position of the anchor points differs so some are further forward or have shorter stalks than others. All these factors make it virtually impossible to make a child car seat that fits all cars and sometimes tricky to fit a child car seat correctly.

ISOFIX car seats are designed to solve all these problems. The ultimate aim is that any ISOFIX child car seat you buy will fit your car simply by plugging it into the ISOFIX points. The other benefit of ISOFIX is that it will create a rigid link between the child seat and the car to provide extra solidity. It is important to make sure that any ISOFIX seats that you use in the vehicle are approved for it. It is not yet the case that any ISOFIX seat will fit in every car with ISOFIX points. To fit an ISOFIX seat into some cars you may either to use a top tether kit or an ISOFIX car seat that has a drop down leg to stabilise the car seat to the car floor. Please ensure your car is suitable for whichever seat you choose by consulting the relevant manufacturers web site.

Group 2 Child Car Seats: for children weighing 15-25kgs (33-55lbs) from 4 to 10 years approximately.

If your child is over the 25kgs weight but is below 135cm in height it is recommended that the child remain in the seat. The majority of Stage 2 seats have a height adjustable back to allow you to gradually change the height of the back as your child grows; this also changes the height and angle of the seat belt, keeping it constantly in the optimum safest position. These seats do not have to be fitted to each car and will generally fit all vehicles without too many problems - sports car owners with bucket seats will need to choose a seat with a small base.

Group 1 & 2 Child Car Seats:

Suitable for children weighing 9-36kgs (20-80lbs) from 9 months to 12 years approximately or up to 135cms.

There is now a greater choice of car seats in this range than ever before. The car seat will include a child harness to be used up to 15-18kgs then the harness can be removed and the child seat can then use the adult car seat belt with most of these seats having an adjuster or seat belt guide so that the belt does not rub on the childs neck. The back rest of these seats will be height adjustable with some even having width adjustment as well.

Group 3 Child Car Seats:

Usually Suitable for children of 22kgs (48lbs) or 6 years upwards.
This child seat raises the height of the child so they can use the adult seat belt in the correct position.

WARNING:

No child seat is escape proof as harness systems are not designed to be completely child proof in order to comply with the legal requirements of ECE R44. The harness must be fastened and adjusted correctly with children encouraged to sit within the car seats harness.

If child seat has been involved in an accident or sustained any damage whatsoever it must be replaced immediately. Any damage to the car seat is not always visible such as the harness which is designed to stretch helping to prevent damage to the childs internal organs. This can only happen once with any further impact leaving the harness with no more stretch thus risking injury to the child.
This is why you should never use a second hand car seat.

If you allow your child to eat and drink in the car seat please ensure that you keep the buckle of the childs car seat clean as any food or drink that finds its way in may prevent the buckle and harness from working properly.

I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel The other on my heart I look around, turn the radio down He says baby is something wrong? I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song And he says... [Chorus:] Our song is the slamming screen door, Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window When we're on the phone and you talk real slow Cause it's late and your mama don't know Our song is the way you laugh The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have" And when I got home ... before I said amen Asking God if he could play it again I was walking up the front porch steps after everything that day Had gone all wrong and been trampled on And lost and thrown away Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed I almost didn't notice all the roses And the note that said... [Repeat Chorus] I've heard every album, listened to the radio Waited for something to come along That was as good as our song... Cause our song is the slamming screen door Sneaking out late, tapping on his window When we're on the phone and he talks real slow Cause it's late and his mama don't know Our song is the way he laughs The first date "man, I didn't kiss him, and I should have" And when I got home, before I said amen Asking God if he could play it again I was riding shotgun with my hair undone In the front seat of his car I grabbed a pen and an old napkin And I... wrote down our song

Benefits of an Eddie Bauer Adjustable Highback Booster Car Seat

Going out to dinner or eating at a family member or friend's house should not stop just because you have a child. The problem when dining out is finding a high back booster seat that provides proper restraints, fits your child's body type and size, and is comfortable. Even when going to eat with the family or at a friend's house, unless they happen to have an extra high back booster seat around, which is unlikely, you would end up holding your child on your lap or lugging around a bulky booster seat from home.

Now, with the Eddie Bauer adjustable highback booster car seat, the problem is solved. With this, you would have a high quality one when going out that quickly and easily converts into a booster seat for dinner time. After enjoying a restaurant outing or spending quality time with the people you love, the car booster would convert back into a baby car seat for the trip home.

Not only is this considered the best booster seat and infant car seat, but also the Eddie Bauer adjustable highback booster seat is very affordable, costing on average $125. When purchasing this infant car seat and booster seat combination, you would receive both the base and seat. Designed for newborns to toddlers with a maximum 100-pound capacity, this product has a reclining seat, as well as an adjustable harness, buckle closure, and comfort grip handle for easy carrying.

With a high rating using the most current industry standards, this three-in-one product by Eddie Bauer has quickly become one of the top choices for parents who love convenience, safety, affordability, and even style. Even the headrest area is extra deep so your child would have added protection and comfort. With this, if you were on a road trip, your newborn or toddler would be able to nap without any problem. In fact, the headrest is designed to adjust to three positions to accommodate your growing child.

Some of the other benefits to buying the Eddie Bauer adjustable seat is the five-point harness system, which is made to support children up to 40 pounds, as well as the high back seat that comes with a positioning belt for children between weights of 40 and 100 pounds. This Eddie Bauer combination boasts fold down armrests and two, built-in cup holders. Keep in mind, if your child were not fond of the high back seat, you could always choose an Eddie Bauer car seat and booster seat combo without a back.

Although the backless booster car seat is a little easier to get in and out of the car, the design of the Eddie Bauer adjustable highback booster seat is not overly difficult to manage. The bottom line is that for a quality car booster and infant car seat combination, this is without doubt considered one of the best on the market, making it a great investment.

Fit a Baby Car Mirror and Never Look Back!

So, we're happy we've chosen the perfect car seat for our child. It's exactly right for the age, size and weight of our precious cargo and they are comfortable and secure.

Most safety advisory bodies and common sense tells us that they need to be secured in the rear seats. Also until 1 year old they should also be in a rear facing child seat. All great advice that should be followed to ensure our children are transported safely.

One major problem though is the isolation and inability to communicate or keep an eye on our children and not be dangerously distracted from driving.

If our child is old enough to be safely put in a forward facing seat at least they can talk to the back of our heads. If we put them on the opposite side of the rear seat we can catch a glimpse of them and make some eye contact through the rear-view mirror.

If they are babies and in a rear facing seat, we can only use verbal communication to try to pacify or comfort them. All very frustrating and dangerously distracting. So much so that I started to look at what solutions might be available.

Thank goodness for the internet! I discovered that baby car mirrors are available from most reputable baby accessory manufacturers. They just don't seem to promote them. I have know idea why because it has revolutionised travelling with my children in the car.

For rear facing car seats, mirrors are available that have universal fittings that attach the mirror to headrests, armrests and anything that you can fit velcro straps around. They are specifically design for this purpose and have plastic non-shatter mirrors. The fixings are secure so the unit doesn't become dangerous in the event of a collision.

For front facing car seats, secondary rear-view mirrors that attach to the main rear-view mirror, wind-shield or dash board are available. These are adjusted so that you can see your child with minimum distraction and they can see you. As with any product there are some better than others and I've seen some where the quality of the plastic mirror is very poor so the image is not clear or distorted.

With the internet, it is now possible to read customer reviews from your home and make your decision based on other peoples experiences. That's what I did and will never look back (while driving).

How to Teach Baby Math - Quantity Recognition, Quantity Equations, and Problem Solving

Can you really teach babies math? If so, how do you teach baby math? Teaching Baby Math consists of exposing your child to the basic language of math at a time when their brain can best grasp it. Here is how to teach Baby Math:

First, teach 1 to 100 using quantity finishing with 0. Quantity is represented by red dots arranged in random formation. When you introduce 1-5 and 6-10 go in order. After that, make sure to shuffle the cards before every lesson.

Teaching Baby Math Schedule:

Day 1: Cover 1-5 three times.
Day 2: Cover 1-5 and 6-10 three times each for a total of six lessons.
Day 3: Shuffle 1-10 six lessons.
Day 6: Everyday, retire 2 numbers and add 2 (or more) new ones. In other words, take out 1 and 2, add 11 and 12. You may need to do more than 2 cards depending on your child.
Day 10: Once you have covered 1-20 incorporate equations. Three equations per lesson with three additional lessons per day for a total of nine lessons. Start with addition, then subtraction followed by multiplication and end with division. Use only two step equations (ex. 1+2=3) spending 2 weeks on each operation showing your child a different equation each time. You are teaching the language of math not drilling in specific facts.

When this cycle is completed your child should be given the opportunity to choose the correct answer between 2 or 3 choices. You do not ask for the answer outright as this would be testing and will diminish your child's joy of learning. Simply give you child one problem solving opportunity at the end of the equation lessons, meaning four equations per lesson. If your child does not answer or is going to answer wrong, show correct answer cheerfully and move on. You may then proceed to three step equations (ex. 1x2x3=6) for a few weeks.

When your child is ready you can mix equations: addition with subtraction and multiplication with division. You never mix addition/subtraction with multiplication/division. This will lead to errors as you need to first understand the rule of Order of Operations to be successful, a task left for when your child is in school.

Flashcards have traditionally been the tool for how to teach Baby Math. Large, square cards with red dots flashed one after the other at a speed of less than 1 second per card. Computer based programs have immensely helped how to teach baby math as there is no need to make, buy or store the flashcards. It also makes the actual lessons easier since there is no fumbling and you get to bond as you both experience the lesson together.

Installing a Britax Infant Car Seat

Properly installing a Britax Car Seat is not always a simple job. On the other hand, the results can be life-saving for the baby. First of all, locate the lower LATCH anchor in your car. In case you didn't know the LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children. Not all cars have LATCH points to attach to. Some pre-2000 model year cars do have them. Your car owner's manual will tell you if your older model has them. They are usually marked with a button on upholster in order for you to be able to notice them more easily.

Next, you have to adjust the foot on the base in order to fit well the car seat. In case you are using a simple LATCH connector you need to ensure that the open end is facing down. Once you do this you can simply attach the LATCH connector to the anchor in your car seat on both sides ensuring that you hear a firm click once you do this. After this you should pull on the strap and than just push down on the base on the side closest to the end of the strap. And now comes the boring part - you have to repeat this process until the strap is extremely tight. In order to make sure that it is tight enough you should check for tightness at the belt path. And you always have to keep in mind that it should move less than 1 inch (which is equivalent to 2.5 centimeters) when you try to move it both side-to-side and front-to-back.

Your vehicle seat will move quite a lot by your child's head and that is totally normal. Do not think something is wrong with the seat. What's more it will be able to be flipped back toward the rear of your car and that is known as rebound. Simply, there is nothing holding the vehicle seat down there.

Finally, check the recline angle with the triangle or you can just use safety angle indicator which is my favorite feature. For example, the 45 degree angle is just perfect for your newborn baby. And remember, you must check out your manual before installing the Britax Infant Car Seat.

The Britax Car Seat is different to many of the others on the marketplace. It is designed especially with babies in mind.

Graco Infant Car Seats - Provide the Most Safety For Your Kids During Car Rides

Graco Infant Car Seats - Increased Safety for Kids during Car Rides

Choosing a Graco Infant Car seat is a synonym with choosing safety before everything for your child. Shopping for car seats for our infants can be a hard task, especially considering the multitude of products and providers available in specialized stores. Parents are looking for safe, comfortable and affordable car seats, but few products can fulfill all those three needs.

Infant seats are designed for newborns up to 20 pounds and are smaller than the regular car seats. The designers of at Graco have thought of everything, including the fact that parents don't want to bother the sleeping infant every time they make a stop and take the car seat out. This is why the they include models that can simply be snapped in and out of the car. Of course, parents need to purchase a base for each car, but you can see it as an investment in functionality and ease of use.

Other car seats from Graco have a double functionality, allowing parents to use it both a carrier and as a car seat, which practically means that we can enjoy two products in one. They bring a long series of benefits for both parents and children.

Let's see few of them:
1. Trendy design, suitable for parents of any age;
2. Resistant fabrics with modern and colored prints;
3. 5-point harness system, delivering a snug fit for infants in five places;
4. Affordable prices;
5. Solid carrying handle.

Graco also produces models that are provided with stay-in-car bases, adjusting harness straps and even cold boots to keep your infant's legs warm in the cold winter days (the Snug Ride Days of Hunny for example, comes with such boots). Infant head support is another important feature for a car seat, as we all know how fragile infants are, but it seems that Graco has thought of that as well.

Graco has successfully met all the needs and demands of active parents that are looking for safe, functional and tailored products for their infants. Depending on your style, needs and preferences, it?s easy to choose any of the Graco infant car seats today. After solving the safety and the functionality needs, all that is left to do is decide whether you want the Bentley Bears or Jungle Paws on the infants' car seat fabric.
