There's many options if you'd like to practice extended harnessing (Past the minimum 40 lb weight for belt postioning boosters) with your kids.

My son just turned 6 last week and is still in a 5 point harness and probably will be for a tleast another year or more.

He's in a Sunshine Kids Radian and will be in a Graco Nautilus when it comes to Canada.

There is an amazing forum called www.car-seat.org that is a wealth of info on car seat safety.

I also wrote an article for the website I work for about how to choose the right car seat:

My step-mom watched this report on tv a while ago and immediately went out and bought my 5 yo a 5pt. harness for up to 100lbs. I will NEVER but my 2yo in a booster!
