[quote=Anonymous]Kids are a new 6, 3, and a baby. We have two cars, a Honda Accord and a Toyota Highlander.

In the Accord, we have a high-back booster for the oldest on the side, a Diono Radian for the middle child in the middle position, and an infant seat for the baby on the other side. The booster is definitely the problem in making it all fit, but it does in fact work. We bought a seatbelt extender so the oldest can still buckle herself. We also use the seatbelt to secure the infant seat, instead of the snap-in base, which simply won't fit.

In the Highlander, we have a Britax Frontier Clicktight on one side for the middle child, use a Bubble Bum in the middle position for the oldest, and use the seatbelt again to secure the infant seat. The oldest can buckle herself into the Bubble Bum and thread the belt through the brackets.

We just leave the infant seat out until the older two kids are secured. Usually the oldest doesn't need help, but the middle child still can't get those stiff bottom buckles. With nothing in the way, it's not that bad to lean in.

I will say that it has proved useful to have the older kids next to the baby. My oldest can feed her a bottle in a pinch, and both kids can replace a pacifier or adjust the sunshade on her seat as needed. [/quote]
