Lucky 7s Week 5 – Safe Kids Week and a The First Years True Fit Convertible Car Seat

May 16, 2011 by Wendy S

Thank you so much for joining in the festivities!
If this is your first visit to my site, please read this post to see what’s going on!!Week 5??  Wait! What happened to 3 and 4?
This contest will be running for 3 weeks (because it’s super important) and will close at the end of week 5.
Week 3 and 4’s contests are still coming… don’t you worry!

Safe Kids Week this year runs from May 30 – June 5, 2011 and the theme this year is Child Passenger Safety with a focus on the use of booster seats.

I’ve partnered with Safe Kids Canada and Young Drivers of Canada to help get this message out to drivers, parents and care givers who transport children in their cars.

Young Drivers main focus is “teaching Canadians how to drive and survive” but they truly appreciate the importance of passenger safety.  I was thrilled when they approached me to work with them for Child Passenger Safety week.

During Child Passenger Safety week, I will be sharing information with you about car seat safety, passenger safety, driving safety and even what to do when your little one becomes old enough to be a driver too.

We will end the week by giving a way a new The First Years True Fit car seat! *

As a car seat tech, the features that I like the most with this seat are:
  • has a rear-facing weight limit of 35lbs which allows for extended rear facing
  • has a 65lb limit when used forward facing with a 5pt harness
Both of these details I will be discussing in a lot more detail in my Child Passenger Safety week posts.

Here is a great introduction to the True Fit:

Thank you to everyone who entered! The contest is now closed.

 Be sure to check out
the other amazing prizes will be
given away in the weeks ahead!

Fine print: Due to Car Seat laws, this contest is open to Canadian’s only. It will close Sunday June 5, 2011 at 11:59pm EST.  The winner will be contacted by email and will need to respond within 24 hours to claim the prize.

* Disclosure: As a Car Seat Technician I cannot recommend one car seat over another.  This seat was chosen by Young Drivers as the seat to be given away to readers. 
I am not being compensated in any way for this post.  The opinions are my own.
