Britax Two Way Elite – A Toddler’s Point of View

Happy Holidays! ย ๐Ÿ˜€ Our holiday started off with a bang,ย and we are currently cruising around in a 5-door hatchback Fiat Punto 2003 model! Not to worry, hubby is OK, but our car is not, so my wonderful father in law has lent us he’s stepson’s car for a while. ๐Ÿ™‚ So with no further ado, here is the Britax Two Way Eliteย in a Fiat Punto 2003, and it’s in the front seat! โค It’s is a convertible car seat that rear faces to 25KG, and is also now the only manufactured seat that harnesses to 25KG forward facing, as the Britax Xtensafix is no longer in production. ย I do however strongly advocate for using it rear facing as it’s outgrown at the same time both ways!

“ThumbsUP! THURSDAY” #2

thumb-up-for-ThursdayI mentioned in my last Thursday post that I was going to start doing this every week. I would like to introduce to you “ThumbsUP! Thursday” which is what the Thursday retailer post is going to be called. It might also be a “ThumbsDOWN” at some point… we’ll see how we get on. ๐Ÿ˜‰
This week’s Thursday is a few day’s late because of the Joie Stages precautionary recall of a few of their seats, but better late then never right?

This weeks retailer was unknown to me until yesterday, and I am happy to announce to you….

7651558My precious cargo .. is a retailer who are specialists in extended rear facing car seats for children up to 18 kg (approx. 4ย  years) or 25kg (approx 6 years).
They are based in Basingstoke, Hampshire.

This retailer can offer you car seats from BeSafe, Klippan & Axxkid, expert advice (one of their staff is ” a qualified and practicing physiotherapist with experience of assessing posture and seating for disabled childrenย andย also of working withย people with spinal cord injuries.”) and their website is full of excellent factual links and information!
And photos! You know how I love photos! ๐Ÿ˜‰

A quote for their website that made me huggle them some more:

“Rear facingย is 5x saferย for young children, so why arenโ€™t more UK parents choosing this option?
From our experience, itโ€™s becauseย awareness of rear facing in the UK isย low,ย and because availability of these seats is limited. We created My Precious Cargo toย fill this gap.ย We provide expert knowledge toย assist you in choosing a rear facing seat that is correct for your vehicle andย for your child, and we aim to increase awareness of the safety benefits ofย keeping your toddler rearย facing.
We offerย viewings and demonstrations ofย our range of rear facing seats on anย appointment basis,ย and are also here toย answer any questions you may have about rear facing.ย  Contact us, we’d love to hear from you.”

Congratulations My Precious Cargo Limited!!!
