Any good ideas on how to make your little one sit still in the car seat. I have one very active boy who refused to be confined in the car seat. Haha!

Place some toys or story books nearby him. Prepare some light snacks too. Switch on music for him to enjoy and calm down. No doubt initally will have big fuss when just put down, try to make it consistent, i.e. don't pick up immediately when he is protesting. Just make sure buckle tight and tell him mummy is going to drive/sit beside you. Soon he will know it is a must to sit in carseat whenever going for a car ride.

Maybe a toy steering wheel which makes him feel like he is driving would work! Otherwise, there are backseat toy organisers you can fill up with his toys to distract him. I would refrain from using the ipad as much as possible.

my child also refused. I struggled like hell the first few times. screamed his head off the entire journey. i remained firm and after a few times, he gave in. my advise, be firm.

Toys, books, actvities such as colouring books. If all fails, use the iPad. I play educational games on the ipad with my kid sometimes. I think a short 10-15mins is still fine.

Lots of distraction for them. But afterwhile i just ignore their cries and move on. Soon they will stop crying themselves too.

thanks

You can try installing toys in the car.
