Our petite six-year old is nearing the 40 lb mark and will need a booster soon, she's about 44 inches tall. Cost isn't a great facter--we are most concerned with safety and comfort. The booster would be used in a '99 Honda CRV and rare occasion a '03 Honda Pilot.
She's currently in a Britax Roundabout which we love - head support, comfortable (where's the padding in the boosters?) and it seems so much more secure than booster seats. From what I've read a booster with a back is better than just the base kind.?
She usually doesn't fall asleep in the car unless we go on a long trip or after a long, busy day. I've seen pillows (some with "wings") that you can attach with elastic bands to the top of the booster. Are these effective? - safe?
Also, what about when traveling via plane? Should we check our booster or can we trust what the rental agencies offer?
Your expert advice is truely appreciated!
