Tip #1 - Mi Fold
We did not want to lug a booster seat around Europe. What to do? I found the solution. It is called a MiFold and it has been a life saver. Not only did this handy seat come in handy for our excursions, but it has been invaluable for pick-ups from camps by families whose kids have outgrown their car seats. I just ensure that Gianna has the MiFold in her backpack and I know that in a jam - she can easily get a ride from a family friend, even one without a booster seat handy.
Take a look.
This little seat folds up and is easily slipped into a backpack. It can be used by kids ages 4 to 12 years old, it folds up into a small rectangle that is 10 x 5 inches and is lightweight. You can buy these little seats at Canadian Tire or directly from MiFold at www.mifold.ca
