Car seats are seriously cumbersome, but even booster seats — even the backless kind — can be a pain. Laws vary from state to state, but many require kids to ride in boosters until they’re nearly 5 feet tall, which can be a real nuisance when it comes to playdates, travel or any adventure that requires a ride in a car that’s not your own.
BubbleBum — an inflatable booster seat that costs $39.99 and smooshes up so small, you can cram it in a backpack or large purse — makes logistics way easier. At just 1 lb., this award-winning safety seat is a handy gift for Mom and Dad, who will no doubt thank you.
