Abstract
A cushioned buckle guard consisting of a three-layer flaccid pad for placement in the chest region of a child restrained in a car seat. An outer heat-resistant layer is stitched to an internal padding layer and a subsequent flame-retardant inner liner. The car seat harness straps are slidably affixed to the harness retaining clip by straps on an outside major surface thereof. The pad is adapted to absorb and/or and redistribute the pressure from at least the harness retaining clip on the child so as to provide comfort to the restrained child.
