Atkinson is an English-language surname. The name is derived from a patronymic form of the Middle English Atkin.
Once children outgrow their booster seat (usually at 10 â 12 years old) they can use the adult lap/shoulder safety belt if it fits them properly. Lap portion low over the hips/tops of thighs and shoulder belt crosses the center of the shoulder and center of the chest.
Your child is ready for a booster seat when he grows too tall for a forward-facing child restraint. You can check the shoulder markers on your childâs forward-facing seat to ensure he has outgrown it. One of the most common mistakes parents make with car seats is moving their child to the next restraint too early. Legally, your child can sit in a booster seat from his fourth birthday.
