DYK? In Ohio, kids must use a booster seat until they are at least 8 years old or 4’9” tall! Best practice is to have kids use them until they are 4’9” as at this height the seatbelt fits them properly.

Shoes and clothes aren’t the only things that your child outgrows. Double the stickers on the side of your car seat to see the height and weight limits. You never want to use a car seat outside of the set height and weight limits.
