Child Car Seats

What is the current law regarding child car seats in Florida?
My kids are 5 and 6, we are from the UK and at home they are required to be in booster seats. We are going to Florida in June and I plan on taking booster seats or maybe buying them from Walmart with as they are really expensive to rent.
I was just wondering what the law is, please don’t answer regarding safety and what would be best, I obviously am going to make sure my kids are safe, I just want to know what the law is.
Thanks.
I am actually surprised…the laws in florida are not as strict as i thought they would be.
