Just realised that the Houdini strap is actually illegal in Europe at the moment, so scrap that idea.

Yes. The Houdini Stop chest clip has been crash tested at the Autoliv Test Facility in Melbourne, Australia. The Houdini Stop has now been officially crash tested in both forward facing and rear facing situations, using Type B, A1, A2 and A4 seats. It meet the AS/NZS Standard 1754 and 8005:2013 in all the test situations.You can try dressing her in a button-up shirt and buttoning it over the car seat straps once they are done up. This has to be massively fiddly - but I've seen it suggested online.

The Houdini stop is NOT illegal in the UK. There was obvious concern that car seats are designed to be opened with one red button. Obviously the Houdini is an extra clip to the one red button release however the ambulance service have said that in the case of an accident where evacuation needs to be speedy, they will simply cut with scissors through the car seat straps & the Houdini. Far superior than having a collision where the childs upper body is unrestrained. I spoke personally to the ambulance service about it.

In fact, in Australia, chest clips are recommended in car seats for children aged 6 months and up, as long as the chest clip is fitted correctly and the shoulder straps are not too loose. It is important to ensure that the chest clip is positioned at the correct height, at the armpit level, and the straps should be securely fastened. While chest clips can help keep a baby safe in a car seat, it is important to ensure that the straps are not too tight, as this may cause discomfort or even difficulty breathing. It can also be used with highchair and stroller harnesses also, to prevent children standing up and possibly falling.
