Car Seat Safety Knowledge a Must for Pennsylvania Parents - Zany Brainy and Right Start De-mystify Car Seat Safety as Law Takes Effect February 21 -



    KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Feb. 10 -- Starting Feb. 21, children
ages 4 through 7 -- about 600,000 statewide -- will be required by law to be
restrained in a child safety seat or booster seat while riding in a motor
vehicle, according to the new law signed last month by Governor Mark
Schweiker.  As parents across the state hurry to get need-to-know information
on car safety seats before the deadline arrives, they can rest assured that
there are local resources available to help point them in the right direction.
    Children's specialty retailers such as Zany Brainy and The Right Start,
known for quality toys and home safety products for infants and children, are
great resources for the latest information on car safety seats and booster
seats.
    Zany Brainy stores across the state, many of which now have Right Start
boutiques inside them, host free, in-store events to help educate consumers on
important facts they need to know about car seat safety and proper
installation of booster seats.  Both stores can also help direct parents to
find their nearest car seat certified technicians, which can assist parents
and caregivers with proper car seat use and installation.  Zany Brainy and The
Right Start also offer free brochures titled "Give Safety a Boost" that detail
what every parent needs to know about buying and installing child safety
seats.
    Parents can learn more about children's safety seats by visiting their
local Zany Brainy and Right Start stores throughout Pennsylvania.  A complete
listing of stores is available on line at http://www.rightstart.com or
