The Most Practical Gift I Ever Received – the Car Seat Seat Protector
My dad is the king of finding practical gifts for everyone in the family. It was thanks to him that I had a tool kit which I didn’t think I needed until I had to fix a wobbly table leg. He was also the one who gave me the emergency road kit that I stashed in my trunk and forgot about until I blew a flat at night and had everything I needed to fix it myself without waiting for hours on the side of the road.
So when my dad sent me a car seat seat protector for my car, I knew there had to be some use for it. I had never really considered that my baby’s car seat could cause damage to the leather on the backseat. But that’s how Dad thinks. He’s always got that mind for things.
The Smiinky Car Seat Protector was another winning gift from Dad. But at the time, I didn’t realize it. I simply removed the car seat and then added the car seat seat protector. Then I reinstalled the car seat on top of it. And honestly, I thought nothing more about it for a while.
Fast forward to 6 months later when I needed a new car seat for my son. He had outgrown the first car seat and I needed a new one to keep him safe. As I took out the old one, I remembered the car seat seat protector Dad had given me. I was amazed that there were crumbs and even some uneaten Goldfish crackers that had made their way under the car seat. But nothing had seeped through to the leather backseat. In fact, my backseat looked like nothing had been there at all.

I washed the car seat seat protector in my washing machine and it was clean once again. I then put it back in its place on the backseat and installed the new car seat for my son once more. Now that he’s bigger and messier, I make sure to check the car seat seat protector more often so I can keep it clean, but even if I lapse and forget, I find that every time, it saves my backseat from the ravages of the car seat, and those of my son.
Thanks to Dad, I now have a new go-to gift for friends when they announce they’re having a baby. It’s always the Smiinky Car Seat Protector. When my friends ask what it is when they open it, I tell them how it will make their lives easier by keeping their seats free of damage from car seats as well as free of damage from the typical messes kids make. I can’t help but wonder what brilliant thing my dad will send me next!
