Does my child need a booster seat?

If you check both of the following points, your child is safest in a booster seat:

• My child weighs between 40 and 80 lbs (18 – 36 kg).
• My child is 9 years old or less.

Choosing a booster seat:

A booster seat can only be used with a lap-shoulder seat belt. To find the best booster for your child, decide where in the back seat your child will sit. Check to see if that vehicle seat has a headrest.
