    Abstract: A seat belt buckle safety housing encompassing the female end of a seatbelt to prevent a child from pushing the release button and thereby becoming a safety issue within a vehicle. Specifically, the invention has a sliding locking device on the lid that when slid opened and pulled, reveals the release button for the seat belt. Likewise, when closed, the lid protects the seat belt release button and prevents a child from removing the safety belt. The housing cover is designed with a pen type hinge that prevents a young child from pulling open the cover due to the pound per inch force and sliding locking mechanism. The device comes in two sections with the front attaching to the remaining three-sides through the use of tension screws.
