Baby Find: Reuse that Car Seat
Category:
Children Car Seats
What: Babble Chic Car Seat Covers
Why: Here’s another way to get in the spirit of reusing, reducing and recycling. Reuse that car seat! Sure, it will never look as good as a new one, but if it’s still safe to use, giving it a makeover is as easy as slipping on a Babble Chic Car Seat Cover.
These covers are easy to use—a few minutes is all it takes—and they’re machine-washable and comfortable. They also have hip prints and patterns that live up to their “No teddy bears here” promise. And the latest news? They’re going eco-friendly with a printed organic car seat slipcover.
Available for infant and toddler car seats.
Price: $115 and up

Kid Find: Orbit Baby Goes Toddler
Category:
Children Car Seats Strollers
What: Orbit Baby Toddler Car Seat
Why: If you haven’t seen or heard of Orbit Baby’s revolutionary travel system, you must be living on another planet. Their stroller is simple, really, a lot like a snap-and-go frame that accommodates Orbit’s infant car seat or toddler stroller seat.
Coming to the line this Spring is a Toddler Car Seat, which will feature the same Smart-Hub Base that all Orbit Baby products use. It allows for the seat to be rotated around 360 degrees to face various directions and easily docked in the car or on the stroller, making this an on-the-go system that will work for anyone. Also, traveling with your tot will be a breeze as the seat can be installed with or without the base into any car or airplane (with the included Braces).
The seat will have an adjustable head rest and fully removable plush upholstery that will make for easy clean ups when your child gets motion sick or just spills their food.
Oh, and did we mention that Hollywood loves the Orbit Baby Infant System? We’ve spotted the following celebs out with one: Bridget Moynahan, Heidi Klum, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Marcia Cross, Naomi Watts, Tori Spelling. And reportedly, Christina Aguilera and Halle Berry have selected it as their travel system of choice as well.
Price: $300
Find it: At select baby boutiques in Spring of this year.

MomFinds Solution: Car Seat Covers Offer Valuable Protection
Category:
Children Car Seats Solutions Travel
What: Emmalu Designs Car Seat Covers
Why: It sounds easy at first; you don’t plan to let your little one to have snacks or drinks in the car. But it starts with one cracker, then a handful of goldfish, a sippy cup of milk ... well you get the picture. The problem is all these things can make crumbs and spills, and those things can ruin your car seat. A simple spill won’t make the seat less effective, but it can ruin the fabric cover of your seat and also lead to mold, mildew and more.
That’s why
Emmalu Designs created their waterproof, removable car seat covers. Available in 12 different designs, they are easy to put on and take off and very thin so as to not interfere with the safety harness of your seat. They can also give a face lift to an older car seat that’s being used for a different kid.

Children Car Seats
What: Compass Folding Booster Seats
Why: Comfortable, roomy seats…luxurious, high-quality fabrics…movable arm rests and cup holders. You’d think we were describing a swanky car, right? Wrong. All of these features are standard to the
Compass Folding Booster Seat, the one car seat you’ll need once your child hits 30 pounds and 38 inches tall. It’s simple to install, doesn’t take up a lot of room (it fits comfortably even in a compact car) and is available in several designer colors to ensure that it doesn’t clash with your car’s interior.
But the best feature, hands down, has to be the folding mechanism that lets you fold it up when you’re storing it, moving it from car to car or taking it with you across country. It’s so easy, you can do can do it with one hand.

Gear Find: Give Your Kid a Boost with Graco
Category:
Children Car Seats
What: Graco AirBooster Car Seat
Why: You know how picky you are when you’re choosing a car—it has to look and feel a certain way, and you have to feel comfortable in it. Well, your kids should be just as discerning when it comes to their car seat, especially since they’ll be using it for a few years before trading it in.
If you’re in the market for a booster seat, check out the Graco AirBooster. At first glance, it looks pretty sleek, but if you test drive it, you’ll find it has more to offer than good looks.
It features a “patented FLEX-Comfort suspension seating,” which is a fancy way of saying that it’s a comfortable ride every time your kid gets in the car. Plus, the fabric is breathable and machine-washable, so kids can stay cool and not have to worry about getting the seat dirty. It also converts to a backless booster, so your kid can use it until he’s 100 pounds.
Price: $99.99

A Find: Carseat Couture
Category:
Children Car Seats Solutions
What: Carseat Covers by Dressy Dribbles
Why: My son’s carseat could tell a tale or two. Of spilled juice and bubbles. Crushed goldfish crackers and pretzels. And what I will always remember as “the ice cream sandwich incident.” Although my carseat’s cover is removable, I never do because it’s such a hassle to remove and replace. So there my son sits, in a Petri dish of toddler food.
Imagine my delight when I discovered the Dressy Dribbles carseat covers. These practical, lovely covers are easy to snap on over your existing seat—and snap off to wash. They are made from incredibly soft materials that make the carseat even more cozy (when my son touched it, he said “ooooh, fuzzy!”). Better yet, these covers come in gorgeous fabrics for every style—from camouflage to Asian brocade. Available in both toddler and infant carseat sizes, and with matching blankets.
Price: $58-68

Tip: Makes a great baby shower gift for 2nd time mommies.
