If you have little ones, this is an important post for you to read. Did you know that 1 in 4 auto crashes involving children are side impact collisions? Safety 1st, innovative developer of children’s products, has developed a new car seat called Air Protect that provides a double layer of security in the event of a crash. Safety 1st’s Air Protect car seat cushions your child’s head and reduces the forces of a crash through the release of air. By the looks of this car seat, it’s hard to imagine anything besides encapsulating your child IN AN AIRBAG that would keep them safer.

As we’re in the midst of summer travel season, Safety 1st is offering a “Summer Road Trip Safety” basket to one lucky MomReviews reader! Summer travel is fun and exciting, but it is important to first ensure the safety of your little ones in the back seat before you are able to sit back and relax.

The basket includes items from Safety 1st’s ProGrade line, all of which are crash tested by the Safety 1st team of certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians. ProGrade items include the See Baby Soft Mirror (for the backseat headrest), the Secure View Mirror (for the rear view mirror), the Soft Solution Roller Shade, the famous “Baby on Board” window sign, and a $25 gas gift card to fill your tank!

Michele McHenry July 18, 2009 at 8:36 am: We cannot plan a trip for us because we are planning our son’s first road trip, by himself to college!

This is fun making sure he has what he needs for his new apartment plus things he will need for the 1500 mile trip, by HIMSELF!

We have set up some time for him to stop and see relatives on the way so he does not have to stay in hotels, etc so he will have a bunch of fun staying with his grand parents, and uncle.

The one thing I am being a pest about is making sure he has what he needs in case of emergencies. I am being told that I am a worry wart!
Sheliza July 18, 2009 at 9:20 pm: We have been taking day-trips and plan on making a trip to Atlanta for a few days. We were going to Myrtle Beach but quite frankly, it’s too dang hot! We will postpone and go in the Fall before it’s too cool
