The age that a child should use a car seat booster is when they are 2 years of age. Some kids need to use them a little bit earlier because weight and height has an effect on how earlier the kids need to use the booster seat.
I heard it was supposed to be by weight, not by height, but what do i know.....when they outgrow the carseat
A child should transition from a car seat to a booster seat around the age of 8 or when they reach the height and weight requirements specified by the car seat manufacturer.
The main difference between a booster seat and a car seat is that a car seat has a harness to secure the child, while a booster seat raises the child to the correct height for the seat belt. This impacts child safety in vehicles because car seats provide more protection for younger children who are not yet big enough for a seat belt to fit properly. Booster seats are designed for older children who have outgrown a car seat but still need help to ensure the seat belt fits correctly for optimal safety.
The child's size is the factor here. If the seatbelt comes across their body like it does for you, then they do not need a booster seat. Sometimes, the child's weight is a factor, too. They should be at least 90 pounds in weight before they are allowed out of the booster seat.
A child should transition from a car seat to a booster seat when they reach the age of around 8-12 years old, or when they outgrow the weight or height limits of their car seat.
The recommended age for transitioning a child from a car seat to a booster seat is around 8 to 12 years old, or when they reach the height and weight requirements specified by the booster seat manufacturer and local laws.
A child can start using a booster seat in the car when they have outgrown their forward-facing car seat and are at least 4 years old and weigh at least 40 pounds. Booster seats are designed to position the seat belt properly on a child's body for maximum safety.
When transitioning a child from a car seat to a booster seat at age 5, it is recommended to follow these safety guidelines: ensure the child meets the height and weight requirements for a booster seat, use a high-back booster seat for added protection, properly secure the seat belt across the child's shoulder and lap, and make sure the booster seat is installed securely in the vehicle.

A child can switch to a booster seat for car safety when they reach the age of around 4 to 8 years old and have outgrown their forward-facing car seat.
The recommended safety guidelines for transitioning a child from a car seat to a booster seat at age 4 include ensuring that the child meets the height and weight requirements for a booster seat, using a booster seat with a lap and shoulder belt, and making sure the booster seat is properly installed and the child is securely buckled in. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines for the specific booster seat being used.
