Do you climb into the back to strap them in. Our kids are the same age, so. I am curious

Honda Odyssey

5 year old in third row. 3 year old in second row behind driver and baby in 2nd row behind passenger. 5 year old knows how to buckle and unbuckle herself which helps a lot.

We have the driver's side 2nd row pushed forward and folded. Both girls can climb into their seats, I climb in and basically sit on the back of the folded seat and buckle them in. It's really very easy.

Dodge Grand Caravan

right now Noah ( almost 4) is in the 3rd row and the twins are in the 2nd row ( captains seats)....BUT...I think I might put one of the twins in the 3rd row soon , so I can have 2 passangers in the car and more space for bags/etc...

Re: If you have three kids in car seats....

I have the 2 middle row captains chairs pushed together to drivers side. The twins are in those seats. Landon is in the third row on passenger side. Since the middle row is pushed over I have a nice spot to reach over for buckling/unbuckling.

We have an Odysessy too and will do this or Colin and Chat Icon in 2nd and Ryan in 3rd. Ryan does buckle the top straps for himself now and I go in to finish him off although I do that b/c he just turned 3 and I want to be sure it's done correctly. Maybe in 6 months I'll trust him to do it all himself but I doubt it Chat Icon

Re: If you have three kids in car seats....

We have a Grand Caravan. My 3 and 2 yr olds are in the back and my 5 yr old sits behind the front passenger but we switch the spots often and utilize one of the stow and go seats at all times so there is extra room for the kids (and me) to move around.
