I have a skinny 5 year old too - and I'd rather keep him harnessed. The day he was able to buckle himself in was a great day! I just fix his straps a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-out-harness-booster#post-2539610 Tue, 03 May 2016 09:59:25 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2539610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@theknest: I'm in the same boat with #3 coming. She does really well getting buckled and then I just make sure she's tight. If its between switching her to a belt and keeping her harnessed, I would rather keep her harnessed and teacher her how to unbuckle it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-out-harness-booster#post-2539587 Tue, 03 May 2016 09:30:31 +0000 Mamaof2 2539587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tinyperson: awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-out-harness-booster#post-2539569 Tue, 03 May 2016 09:19:30 +0000 tinyperson 2539569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These buckle boppers come up on CSTFL all the time, and they're allowed:</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Buckle-Bopper-Seat-Belt-Aid/dp/B00A4PL7VM" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Buckle-Bopper-Seat-Belt-Aid/dp/B00A4PL7VM</a></p> <p>Maybe that's a solution? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-out-harness-booster#post-2539554 Tue, 03 May 2016 09:01:37 +0000 Mamaof2 2539554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought it was more strength than anything else?<br /> DD is 5 and can buckle herself in the Frontier but cant unbuckle - she cant push it hard enough </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-out-harness-booster#post-2539551 Tue, 03 May 2016 08:57:59 +0000 looch 2539551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have both the Britax Frontier and the Graco Nautilus. My son is almost 5.5 years old and can unbuckle both the crotch strap and the chest harness without a problem. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-out-harness-booster#post-2539542 Tue, 03 May 2016 08:50:56 +0000 theknest 2539542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm looking for a five point harness booster car seat that is a little easier for a 5 year old to get himself out of. He can never push the red button. I know they don't recommend these - so their hard to find but....</p> <p>I'm pregnant with my 3rd. We'll have to move my 5 year old to the third row of our Suburban when the baby comes - and I don't want to have to crawl back to the third row to unbuckle him every time. I know that's a little lazy on my part but 3 kids....I'll always help him buckle to make sure it's done properly but it would be so nice if he could unbuckle himself. Does anyone have any experience with a booster that is easier for kids to get out of?</p> <p>Also important to note - my oldest is extremely well behaved and understands the dangers of traveling in a vehicle and not being buckled - so this is something we don't have to worry about (now my second child is a different story!). Thanks for the help! </p>
