Benefits of technology

[0008]The child seat bottom may be made of a lightweight flexible material because, in a lowered position, the child seat bottom is supported by the underlying adult seat surface. This enables the child seat to be a lighter weight.
[0011]The child seat also has a hood that is extendable, from the top of the child seat, in an arched fashion over the child seat. The hood provides privacy for the seated child. It also provides shade from the sun or protection from rain when the child seat is used outside.

Problems solved by technology

The seats normally used by adults are often not appropriate for use by young children.
Young children may not properly be secured or supported in an adult seat.
Such adult seats may not be properly sized to accommodate the needs of young children.
