I am trying to not only find a helmet for my infant but also a safety harness or something to make it safer for her where can i find this?


Answer
I don't believe that any company out there makes a helmet for an infant, short of a bicycle helmet that may fit. There is no company that makes a safety harness for infants, or a harness/seat belt of any kind for an ATV. Reason being, what if you need to bail off because you lose control? I know I would not want to be strapped to an ATV. I have only had to "ditch" once and if I hadn't, it probably would have killed me if I was strapped to it. To be candid, if you lost control and had to ditch would you want the infant strapped to it...pretty good chances your infant would be crushed, especially if you are looking at a roll-over or tumble situation. Many states have laws against passengers on an ATV unless it designed for that purpose (Polaris makes one for example) or vehicles like the Yamaha Rhino.

Long story short, you are looking out for your infant. If you are going "putting around" with her, get a small bike helmet unless the child has a large head, then you should be able to find a small helmet at a motorcycle shop. They make helmets for the little ones that race in the 50cc class, but those kids are normally about 5. Next option is get something like a Yamaha Rhino. You do not want to strap your child to the ATV.....Righting a rolled ATV isone thingg, but not with a crushed child attached to it. Sorry, I know it is not the answer you are looking for, but it is the truth.

Where can I get a helmet for my 8 month old baby?

A friend just got me the child carrier seat for my bicycle and I need to know where to get a helmet. Thanks!
I have looked at Target, walmart, sports authority and none of them have helmets small enough for her.
I know it is not recommended to take them until they are one year of age however my daughter is walking on her own and I have spoke with her doctor and he thinks she is strong enough for me to take her.



Answer
It is not recommended that you take a child on a bike with you until they are 1 year or older . . . they are still developing good neck / back control and the weight of the helmet is not good for them.

Amazon has some helmets that you might be able to use when she is a bit bigger:
