Those with toddler, twins, and minivan

How did you arrange the carseats?
Toddler in the back and babies in the middle row? Is it hard to get to the back to buckle your toddler in?

Re: Those with toddler, twins, and minivan

My friend had a barely 2.5 year old when her twins were born last year.

They bought the Honda Odyssey which has the ability to take out the little middle seat and push the two middle row seats together. This allowed for an aisle to the back row where she put her toddler, so she can lean in and help her with buckles and stuff. But her daughter climbs in herself.

And then the buckets were sidebyside in the middle row.

Hope that helps!

J...my plan is babies in back, last row and G in the captain chair. I removed the other captain chair to get to back and snap babies in.

I have the twins in the captain's chairs and DS in the 3rd row. He climbs into his seat and I step in the back to strap him in or I lean over the captains chair to strap him in. It's not so bad. I like having the twins in the captain's chairs in case something happens and I need to see them or reach back there.

Same here. HE climbs in his seat on his own and I just reach back to buckle him in..Its not hard at all. ( now anyway, Ask me when we have the convertible car seats..LOL)

It isn't recommended that infant seats go in the back rowChat Icon Chat Icon
