Houdini Stop

Houdini Stop – Because Little Escapes Aren’t So Cute

Houdini Stop was created by a determined mum who just wanted to keep her daughter safe in the car. When no product could stop her child from escaping the car seat, she made her own – and it worked. Now, Houdini Stop is trusted by over 40,000 families worldwide.

 

Frank, our founder and ACRI-accredited fitter, rates Houdini Stop as a genuine safety add-on, not just a gimmick – which is why we’re proud to be an Authorised Australian Retailer, keeping wriggly little arms exactly where they’re supposed to be.

The Story Behind Houdini Stop

It started with a single piece of elastic, some bracer clips and a mum’s determination to solve a real safety issue. From that moment, Houdini Stop grew from a DIY fix into a safety-assured product, developed through months of research and rigorous testing.

 

Designed to prevent children from slipping their arms out of car seat harnesses, the Houdini Stop is simple, effective and widely recommended by parents, carers and child restraint fitters.

 

Its legendary reputation for success comes from real-life solutions to real-life parenting problems. That’s what makes it so special – and so effective.

Does exactly what it says, very easy to use. My son now gets upset if I don't have it on, says "keep safe!" and points to where it should be. If your kid gets their arms out of their belt,…

My 3 year old son has not been able to wiggle free of his harness since we started using Houdini Stop. Highly recommended, no more pulling over constantly to strap him back in and keep him safe!

My little escape artist can no longer get in to mischief while I am driving. I love it and he is getting used to having it now.

This is a great product. It is comfortable and gives peace of mind knowing that they can't get their arms out. It makes them much safer.

Easy to use. My grandson hasn't been able to get his arms out of straps and is happy to have a new strap for Nanna to do up. Great service. Many thanks.
