Getting Ready for School: Special Needs Strollers and Safety

As we get ready for kids going back to school, or sending our kids off to school for the first time, consider safety for a minute. Many parents use a special needs stroller such as the ones made by Convaid and use it on school bus. Please note-it is required by the National Highway Traffic and Safety Association you have tie downs, head extension and five point harness system. At the time of purchase, you will need to have the head extension, along with a 5 pt harness system.
