Bubble Bum Inflatable Car Booster Seat - Why isn't this in Canada!?
Friends! Have you heard about or seen this product - Bubble Bum Inflatable Car Booster Seat? It's a portable booster seat for kids 4-11 years old or 40-100 pounds.
I came across this seatbelt positioning booster seat when I was in Florida recently so I bought one! Have you ever wished you had a booster that you could take with you on vacation, in taxis or in rental cars? That's exactly what this is designed for. And the price point is great too - only $30 US.
BubbleBum seats are currently undergoing tests to be approved in Canada, but they meet and exceed all US Federal Motor Vehicle Standards FMVSS213 and the European Regulations EU R44/o4. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it's approved for use here in Canada.
Don't worry, I'm not going to use it before O is of the right age or weight, nor will I use it if it is not approved here, but I will bring it with us if and when we go on a Caribbean or US vacation once he is over 4.
I really hope that these are approved in Canada soon. Car safety is so important and the thought of not having a booster for a child while in a taxi or on vacation just makes me cringe.
What do you think? Would you use it if it was approved here?
