  Re: help with booster Reply Contact The Graco Nautilis!! (they come in cute girl prints too) 5 point harness to 65 lbs - 5 point harness is the safest and should be used as long as possible! converts to a high back belt positon booster- can be used when your child is 4 years and 40 lbs and should stay a high back booster until 7 years old  and then later a no back booster -until they are 8-12 years, 4'9" tall and can meet these criteria Does the child sit all the way back against the auto seat? Do the child's knees bend comfortably at the edge of the auto sea?. Is the lap belt touching the top of the thighs, not the tummy? Is the shoulder belt centered on the shoulder and chest? Can the child stay seated like this for the whole trip?

We have to leave it in the sienna that has a latch connection. The jeep does not have a latch connection. thanks
