The name malachite derives from the Greek Moloche meaning mallow, because the stone is the same color as mallow leaves. Malachite is copper based, and has been crushed and used as pigments for thousands of years.
Booster seats are for children who have outgrown convertible or toddler seats. Booster seats are for children who are 4 to eight 8 old, weigh 40 to 80 pounds, and are less than 4 feet, 9 inches in height. You can use a booster seat until an adult seat belt correctly fits the child without use of the booster seat. Always use both the shoulder and lap belts with a booster seat.
When a young child graduates from a car seat to a regular seat too early, dangerous things can happen. Yet seven out of 10 parents do not know that a child should be at least 4 feet, 9 inches tall and at least 80 pounds before buckling up like an adult. Florida's new booster seat law aims to change that. Effective Jan. 1, children ages 5 and younger must use a booster seat when in a motor vehicle.
