We have just bought a Maxi Cosi Priori XP Car Seat from Halfords. Positive reviews for the Maxi Cosi Priori XP on the net, it has also won a Mother and Baby Gold Best Buy Award. These days all car seats meet the stringent safety requirements so you can be sure they are going to protect your baby. The most likely reason your child will be at risk of harm in your car is a badly fitted car seat. Modern child car seats are so sophisticated that it is easy to fit them incorrectly.

Selecting the right car seat for your child is an important descision. The choice is not as simple as you might assume as a new parent. There are in fact 5 groups of seat, some which overlap child weights so you need to be careful what you buy.

Your choice will be influenced partly by your child and also cost.

If you register for an online account with The Early Learning Centre they will send you a 20% off voucher just before your nomiated child's birthday. This works for not only the parent, but Grandparents and relatives can also register and get a voucher too.

We have just been on a holiday to Cornwall with our 9 month old baby. A great deal of thought had gone into when we should travel, where we should stay and what equipment we should take. We were keen to avoid the temptation to take too much, but still ended up in a tight squeeze for space travelling down. Yes, we were one of those comical overpacked cars you see on the motorway.

We first considered buying an all terrain pram because we were always wanting to be in the outdoors either running or walking . Once we had a child we wanted to continue doing all the activities we could, at least maybe to a lesser level. Whilst living in New Zealand we were introduced to Moutain Buggys by friends who had kids and also we keen outdoor enthusiast.

We have a Little Life child carrier which is suitable up to 6 months of age. Whilst it has proved better than the Baby Bjorn since it has a far easier harness system, I have just discovered that Macpac make a similar carrier which appears to be far superior. The buckles are more substantial and easier to operate with gloves on and coming from a leading mountaineering brand you can be sure the product is bombproof. Neddlesport stock the macpac carrier.
