The Evenflo Big Kid Amp booster seat is one of the most popular seats that Evenflo offers.  Evenflo has been making juvenile products for over 85 years, and has offices and employees throughout the world.  Their products are easily available for purchase from some of the country’s leading retailers, including Walmart and Amazon.  The Evenflo Big Kid Amp Booster seat was rated a “Best Bet” by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in 2011.  According to Anne McCartt, the Institute’s senior vice president for research, A “Best Bet” rated booster seat should work well in the family SUV or the babysitter’s sedan.  

Evenflo Big Kid Amp Features

The Evenflo Big Kid Amp Booster seat comes in three colors:  red, blue, and pink.  The colors are very vibrant.  Our favorite is the blue, which is a very shiny royal blue color.  The seat pad is removable, which is great because kids are extremely prone to spilling things.  The seat pad is machine washable, which makes it extremely easy to keep clean.  The Big Kid Amp has dual arm cup holders, which should keep your child properly hydrated even on the longest trips. It also has a pivoting arm, which helps make entry and buckling easier.  This booster seat is extremely light , so it can move from rental car, to airplane, and between cars very easily.

The Evenflo Big Kid Amp is designed for kids from 40 to 100 pounds, and a height of up to 57 inches.  As with any product for your child, please read all instructions and warnings on the product and product labels before using the Evenflo Big Kid Amp Booster Seat.

According to Bob Smith, elitecarseats.com spokesman, many parents have questions about the car seat laws in their area, “Car seat laws vary from state to state, and it can be difficult to know what the law is where you live. When it comes to those who are driving in a car with a child in Texas, it’s important to remember that every child who is 7 and younger and less than 57 inches MUST be in a child restraint while in a car. A standard adult-sized seatbelt simply doesn’t offer the safety that your child needs and is against Texas car seat laws.

As reported by Bob Smith, elitecarseats.com spokesman, the Safe Traffic Systems Ride Safer Travel Vest is the perfect alternative to traditional booster seats, “Older kids don’t always like using a booster seat – they can be uncomfortable and most kids feel like they are for ‘babies’.

The holidays are upon us, and with Thanksgiving here this week, we know a lot of you will be on the road (or in the sky). Whether you’re taking a plane, train or automobile, there are always some steps you can take to make sure your little one is safely taking the journey with you.

If you’re flying, here are a few tips on how to more easily take your car seat along:

- It is highly recommended that all passengers should be buckled into their own seat for safety – regardless of age – just like riding in a car.

- Before you go, confirm that your car seat is approved to fly. You can find a note that says “certified for aircraft use” (FAA Approved) directly on most car seats if they are approved, or in your instruction manual.

- Keep in mind, some convertible car seats (depending on size) and all belt-positioning booster seats are NOT approved for airplane use.

- Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using a car seat. The FAA recommends that a child weighing:
- Less than 20 pounds use a rear-facing car seat
- From 20 to 40 pounds use a forward-facing car seat
- More than 40 pounds use an airplane seat belt

- Next, confirm your car seat will fit on the plane. Measure the car seat base and length to ensure it will fit in aircraft rows and seat. Contact airlines about specific aircraft or use seatguru.com for dimensions. According to the FAA, a car seat should fit in most airplane seats if it is no wider than 16 inches.

- Reserve the window seat for your car seat. Avoid Exit Rows and the row in front of, or behind the Exit Row (where car seats are not allowed).

- Use your stroller or a car seat transporter to help you more easily carry the car seat through the airport.

- Strategize in advance on how to carry all of your belongings, your car seat, and your child from the jet way to the airplane seat after gate-checking your stroller. It might not seem like a long distance, but it can still cause a challenge! (Backpacks, quality-versus quantity packing, delegating, etc. can help).

- Board early when possible to install your car seat and get the family situated before the chaos of general boarding.

- Consider other passengers. Offer empathy and kindness (earplugs and chocolate?) for passenger unable to recline the seat ahead of yours because of the car seat position.

- Take-off, landing, and turbulence are not safe times to breastfeed. Use a bottle to help with ear pressure and keep your infant safely restrained in their car seat whenever possible.

- Give kids a break from the car seat while you’re in the airport. Allow them to stretch, walk, or be held before boarding the flight so they aren’t as anxious to get out of the seat once they are on the plane.

Question by Amy-Eden’s mom: Should I buy an infant car seat or a convertible car seat?
My daughter is 3 months old today.Well,today we were in a wreck.It wasn’t bad by any means,but she does need a new car seat.Should I get her another infant seat or a convertible one?The only concern I have with getting a convertible is that she doesn’t sit up yet obviously,so if we went in restaurants or anything it would be a pain.Any suggestions?

Best answer:

Answer by I love you forever♥
She don’t need a convertible car seat until she’s 1 years old. She’s only 3 months old, you should buy her a infant car seat.

Edit: I had no idea that many PEOPLE used convertible from day 1 and I have never seen an infant on a convertible carseat. I know I am not educate like you guys. Well Thanks for the TD’s anyways.
