In celebration of this year’s CPSW I have made a little collage in remembrance of my kids on their RF journey. Sadly I do not have any photos of Caitlyn as a baby, but she used the same baby Graco Junior seat as Henry is pictured in. She transitioned to the BeSafe when she was aroundRead more
I thought this was a good and at the same way cute way of explaining i-Size in a fast way. With new legislations it can be a bit confusing when all we know is the old ECE R44.04. BeSafe has made this to help all of us. Please remember that when you buy a seatRead more
It’s all most here! Due to be released in June! (May 15th in Scandinavia) The BeSafe iZi Kid i-Size! (Make note of the clothing the children are wearing in a typical Norwegian winter.

Went to the ICSC today to try the Axkid Minikid and to make sure it actually fitted nicely in our Ford Mondeo 2004 model. Caitlyn Anabelle is 3,5 years old, 15kg and 104cm tall.

Going out with toddlers is always quite an experience…..hehe Yesterday I decided to change the cat litter tray, only to find out after I changed it that we were out of litter… And with nothing open… (Easter..yey) that wasn’t really ideal. :wacko: So today I had to take the kids to Tesco and pick up someRead more
And 99% of parents think they are correctly fitted! According to Good Egg Safety, on a national level, 6 out of 10 car seats are installed incorrectly! That is scary! “Figures released by Good Egg Safety indicate a 13% rise in badly fitted child car seats in the four year period 2010-2013. The figures – whichRead more

When one vehicle collides with another, the damages go far beyond that of broken headlights and smashed glass. Every car crash has three stages! The first stage is the car crashing into something. Then comes the second when the people inside the car crash into the car’s interior. Hopefully the seat belt and air-bags! Then comesRead more
