A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffeehouse 2563...

This is sad to say but....you won't find a child here in Winter not wearing a full snow suit strapped into their car seats. It is just impossible not to do so in our cold....and the strange thing is that I don't even think we have a law saying not to.

I'm off to start a new coffeehouse...come on over.

It is not sad. It is practical. A must in your climate and road conditions. My kids wore snow suits under their five point seat belts in Rochester, NY when we lived there. We also drove slower and very carefully. Never at speeds to endanger life and limb.
The law is faulty, I think. Or the car seats are, in my opinion. Making a parent choose between life saving gear for their kids, dress for weather or seatbelts.
I did have a sleeping bag kind of thing meant to accommodate a 5-point for newborns. But it was quickly outgrown and I've never seen any such for toddlers.

This one is closed....see you in CH 2564
