Have you ever opened your car door on a hot day and were amazed by how hot it is inside the car? Think about being in the car, strapped into a car seat and not being able to get out. With the heat building this weekend and into next week, the likelihood of a child dying after being left in a car accidentally rises dramatically. Don’t think it could happen to you? Kids In Cars founder Amber Rollins says, think again:

Rollins say to put something in the front seat reminding you your child is in the back, a stuffed animal or their favorite toy and put the object in the car seat when you take the child out. Over 1,000 kids have died in hot cars since 1990, don’t let it happen to you.
