Shoulder Belt Path Provides a Comfortable, Secure Fit
When it comes to securing young passengers in the car, getting just the right fit can be frustrating. Fortunately, the Pathway Booster Seat allows you the flexibility to adjust the shoulder belt path up to 1-1/2 inches so your child stays comfortable and correctly belted in for each car ride. The color-coded optimized lap belt paths help guide you to place the seat belt in the correct position with the seat.

Adjustable Headrest Eliminates Gaps
The Pathway is built with an adjustable headrest that eliminates uncomfortable gaps as you raise the headrest to accommodate your growing toddler. The Pathway's specially-designed headrest uses a contoured shape to help contain and control your child's head in the event of a car crash. Side-impact testing is standard for all of The First Years' seats. Each model is tested to Australian standards, the most stringent standards for side-impact testing.

One-Hand Foldable Seat Securely Anchors to Car
As with all of booster seats from The First Years, this model features a patented, one-hand folding design with a built-in carry handle to simplify storage and transportation. The Pathway's self-adjusting back quickly adapts to fit your car's back seat. When the booster seat is not in use, the lower connectors keep it in place even if you forget to buckle up with the car's seat belt.

Washable Cup Holders Store Beverages and Snacks
The Pathway offers two flip-out, removable, dishwasher-safe cup holders to hold snacks, bottles, or sippy cups. The holders are properly oriented to hold cups in place when the seat is installed correctly.

  • Color-coded, three-position adjustable shoulder belt path provides a comfortable, secure fit
  • Lower connectors for installation when not in use

  • Patented one-hand fold design allows for quick, easy storage
