Britax Advocate Car Seat Giveaway

The thing about car seats is how nasty they are to use, right? You want your child safe but to get that car seat actually in the car and ready to go is such a huge pain you find yourself wanting to have car seats for each car you own so you don't have to move the car seat from vehicle to vehicle.

Britax sent me one of their gorgeous soft-as-velvet car seats to check out and the thing that I noticed about it (besides the claims of being their safest car seat yet and able to accommodate infants from 5 pounds rear-facing to 65 pounds front facing) is that it's the easiest car seat to install that I've seen. You do up the latches and you're good to go.

You know what this means don't you? It means they've finally got someone designing these things who has actually used them! WOO HOO! They know that easy is good--especially as with most car seats you really have to be careful to make sure you install it properly for your child to be safe. So not only is it easy but it's safe and easy.

And while I was thrilled that Britax allowed me to test drive the car seat I also was impressed at the link I saw where a two year-old boy riding in the Britax Advocate car seat survived being hit by a train. Yes, you read that right. His mother was driving the family car while he was strapped into a Roundabout model and she wasn't able to release him before the train hit the car. He survived in tact and while the train wasn't going that fast that still has to impress you just a tad. A bit?

So the good folks at Britax are offering you the same car seat pictured above, the Britax Advocate, and all you need for your shot at it is to follow the directions below.

But I'd also like to mention that if you're talking car seats you should check out Bambini Bliss which carries the cutest car seat covers including the one you see pictured at left here in hot, hot leopard print. It's almost too hot to be using in the summer months!

It's how you give baby that red-carpet treatment, snuggling them in soft and sweet furry bliss. Or rather Bambini Bliss.

Of course they also carry clothing and a wide variety of baby gear, jewelry, baby shower gifts and baby carriers. They even have a matching slipcover for a baby carrier (the kind where you can wear baby on your stomach) in leopard pink as well. So if you're thinking about baby items--check out the store and see what you like for yourself.
