At what age can a baby sit in a car seat?
1 Answers
A baby should not sit in a car seat until at least six months old. The details are as follows: 1. Babies under six months old have not yet developed sufficient bone structure, and their back muscles lack the necessary support. Sitting in a car seat at this stage could cause harm to the baby. 2. Child car seats are generally designed for children under eight years old or weighing less than 36 kilograms. The purpose of a car seat is to provide better protection for the baby. However, car seats should be selected according to the child's age. For babies under one year old, a rear-facing infant carrier is recommended. For babies aged one to three, a full-coverage car seat should be used. For children over three years old, a harness-type car seat is the best option.
