Our Little Riding Cape has received high praise from numerous Child Passenger Safety Technicians and Child Car Seat Safety Instructors across the country. They applaud the safety features of our design. Unlike most seat cover-ups, the Little Riding Capes do not go between a child's back and the car seat. Car seat safety specialists highly discourage the use of thick coats, blankets, or bulky layers between the child and the car seat (including car seat cover-ups that go behind the child's back. During a collision, the layers compress causing the seat belt harness to become loose enough for a child to be ejected from the car seat.
