Car Seats
It’s the Law: Back in the Car Seat You Go!
Starting today, California, along with five other states, requires that tots be in car seats or boosters until eight years old or 4’9″ tall. The previous requirements were six years old or 60 pounds. Although kids are in an uproar, it’s all about their safety. A properly fitting seatbelt must go across the upper thighs, [...]
Britax Parkway SGL Booster Seat: Safety First but Convenient, too!
I can’t believe I bought yet another car seat. For my trip to France, I needed a booster that would travel well (instead of my really great but super heavy Clek Oobr). Britax is the last word in car seat safety so it was an easy decision to go for the newest booster, the Parkway [...]

Everyone always wants to know what Tot Snob’s favorite tot items are, and of course, not only do I have my absolute favorites that I make sure all my friends and family members put on their gift registry but I stand behind these as truly the best in value and function. So, without further ado, [...]
Nomie Replacement Toddler Car Seat Covers
My younger one gets motion sickness. So you know what that means when we get in a car, especially after a nice healthy meal. We have had a few road side cleanups that, well…I don’t want to gross you out with details, let’s just say, it was not pretty. After the clean up, she actually [...]
To Car Seat or Not To Car Seat
The answer is of course to ALWAYS use a car seat. I recently heard that the leading cause of death for toddlers is not some horrid disease but from car accidents. Even without that mental torture in my head, I use a car seat at ALL times. But when traveling, things start to get tricky. [...]

Alarms to Avoid Tragic Hot Care Accidents
This year marks the historical high of infant hot car deaths. It’s easier for us assume this only happens to negligent parents but statistically that is not the case. These accidents usually occur when the parent’s routine is altered and their brain goes on auto pilot mode of their regular routine, which does not involve [...]
Snuggin Go Seat Positioner
No more slumping!! We’ve all tried to accomplish this same effect with diapers and blankets. Well, leave it to the professionals to design a positioner that actually works.

Clek Oobr Child Booster Seat
I have all the car seats I need until I won’t need car seats anymore. But this Clek Oobr booster seat is making me want to upgrade. Most boosters do not attach to the car, you just use the seat belt across the body. But this one is attached via the latch system, for good [...]
