We want our children to be as safe as possible while we're driving! That means making sure our precious cargo is secured properly in the right car seat, booster seat or seat belt, appropriate for their age, size and maturity level.

Minnesota's updated Minnesota Child Passenger Safety Law went into effect August 1st, 2024. The updated law is based on best practice recommendations that encourage caregivers and parents to get the full use out of your car seat by maxing it out in either the height limit or the weight limit, whichever your child reaches first. It's the safest thing you can do!

Be excited about other milestones in a child's life, but don't be in a hurry to rush them through the different stages of car seats and booster seats.
