A child safety seat could save your youngster’s life in the event of a serious automobile accident. The Nemours Foundation offers this list of safety features to look for in a child safety seat:

* If you can, invest in a new child safety seat rather than accepting a hand-me-down or buying a used one.

* Never use a child safety seat that was made more than 10 years ago or one that was in a car accident.

* Make sure that any infant younger than a year old and weighing less than 20 pounds is in an infant safety seat facing backward. Toddlers 1 year and older and weighing 20 pounds to 40 pounds can ride in a forward-facing safety seat. Children who are between 40 pounds and 80 pounds should use a booster seat.

* Make sure your child’s safety seat is a good fit — don’t get one that’s too small or too large.
