At what age or size of a child must use a booster seat instead of a car seat?

The minimum age and size is 4 years old and 40 pounds. However, this is only minimal and a few kids that are ready at this time. Sitting in a booster seat has less to do with the maturity level of the child as a physics. At 4 years, only 1% of children are mature enough, at 5 years, 50% and 6 years, 99%. So wait until around 6 years of age (and at least 40 pounds) more secure. To be ready for a booster seat a child must meet ALL of the following: * 4 years of age or older * At least 40 pounds * lap belt should go over the thighs and the pelvic bone, it lies in the abdomen * shoulder belt should cross the chest and knocked her on the shoulder, not the arm or cut in the neck to his knees * The child should bend at the edge of the child seat * should know that never, never put the belt shoulder behind the back or under the arm. (Very dangerous, search 'seatbelt syndrome') * Child must sit in position vertical during the entire trip, every time. This means not bowing to torment the brothers, without turning to look at the cool fire truck has just pass without stooping to pick up a toy …. Each time the child is sitting upright and proper in the booster is a time that are not safe. * The child should not lean or slouch sideways if they fall asleep. (Some older children go to sleep now and then in a booster seat and this may be acceptable provided they remain in position while you sleep. But if a child still regularly falls asleep in the car, a 5-point harness would be best, no matter age or the child if they meet the other requirements) Once a child meets the above, it can safely ride in a booster seat. A 5-point harness is not necessarily safer than a properly used booster seat. However, a 5-point harness is still uncertain if you want to continue the use of your child for any reason. And if even one of the above are not fully satisfied, 100% of the time, a harness is safer. Go to YouTube and search for "Belle gift "for a real life story of why I do not remember too soon.
