Abstract: A head restraint for a vehicle child seat includes an elastic head band, at least two head support straps, a first attachment strap and a second attachment strap. The straps are elastic or non-elastic material. An inner perimeter of the elastic head band is sized to firmly fit around a child's head. One end of the first attachment strap is attached to one side of the elastic head band and one end of the second attachment strap is attached to an opposing side of the elastic head band. First and second releasable attachment devices are formed on the first and second attachment straps. First and second mating releasable attachment devices are attached to opposing sides of a vehicle child seat. There is a stretchable material covering the head attached to the elastic band and bias tape.
