The fundamental of being a parent, however, remains keeping your child safe. One way to do that is by keeping your child rear-facing in the car for as long as possible. Why? Simply because it is the absolute safest way to travel.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on your child\u2019s age, classmates or friends may start travelling in a forward direction. This does not mean your child is tall, big, or mature enough to do the same. Before switching your child forward-facing, please consider these points:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A child\u2019s head weighs disproportionately more than an adult.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At the same time, the neck on a child is not fully developed and thus extra vulnerable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The crash forces acting on the neck is about five times greater for a child seated forward-facing than rear-facing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" src=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/app\/uploads\/sites\/47\/73A3309-1400x933.jpg\" alt=\" 73a3309\" class=\"wp-image-4546\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Safety first<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We at Axkid cannot recommend enough the safety benefits of travelling rear-facing for as long as possible.

That is why we will always recommend rear-facing up to 6-7 years of age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Not too cool for school, but too cool for booster<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when someone at school asks if your child has started using a booster, just reply:<br>&#8222;<strong>No<\/strong>, since rear-facing is the safest option for my child.&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Car seats allowing rear-facing up to 6-7 years: <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/product\/axkid-minikid-4\/\">Axkid Minikid 4<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/product\/axkid-minikid-2-2022-23\/\">2<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/product\/axkid-one-2\/\">Axkid ONE 2<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/product\/axkid-one-plus-2\/\">ONE+ 2<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/product\/axkid-move\/\">Axkid Move<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safety beyond the car<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color: #12193d\">Leave the car at home and pick up your kids from preschool with the new <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/bg\/product\/axkid-grand-tour\/\">Axkid Grand Tour<\/a>!
