Car seats for field trips

[5 Little Monkeys]

I have it in my field trip blurb that parents may be asked to supply car seats but I have never done so. I think it would be annoying for parents to supply it ( my fiancé puts them in and takes them out for me and says it's a pain in the butt lol) so I bought 3 car seats myself and our car has 2 built in boosters if I ever have a child big enough for it.

We used to go out quite regularly ( last summer it was almost daily!) so it was just easier for me to do it this way. Now we go out maybe once a month if that as I only have room to take out 3 but normally go out if I only have 2.

Depending on how difficult her car seat is to put in (also where it is in her car would make a difference, back seat, middle seat etc), I can understand why she would be annoyed sometimes. I also wouldn't want to be putting in and taking out car seats throughout the week with my crew either. Sounds like a lot of work! If I have a low number for awhile, we just leave the seats in the car.
