Hello
I currently have 3 kids and we would like to add a 4th in the future. I am looking for a vehicle (DH prefers an SUV to a minivan in a HUGE way, but I am open to whatever will give us the space we need and be the safest option and I know he is too.)
My kids are:
11 (approx. 70lbs and 4 foot 9") in a britax parkway (he would like to get out of it ASAP but is not quite tall enough) Would a low back booster be as safe for him?
7 (approx. 50lbs and approx. 4 foot 1") in a sunshine kids radian and will be harnessed until 65lbs or longer if the limits change in Canada where we live. She is nowhere near ready for a booster!
18mos (22lbs and approx. 29") in a peg perego primo viaggio SIP 30/30.
DH has been eyeing the Honda CRV but I am not sure it will work with 3 car seats. We are happy to get something now and then get something else down the road when #4 comes as we are not planning for the 4th baby right away, but if there is an ideal vehicle for 4 kids we would be happy to get it now!
My 18 month old will need a new seat, a convertible-so I was hoping to get suggestions on those as well from you lovely ladies.
I have experience with Britax seats (which I love!) and the sunshine kids (diono) which I am not a fan of (our chest clip broke when I was buckling my daughter in and it is only used part time and never stored in hot or cold conditions.
I am looking at Britax, Clek and Peg Perego for convertible seats so I would love info on those and how they would fit in a vehicle with the radian and parkway, as well as any other seats I should consider looking into.
Thanks so much everyone for your help! To re cap since I feel like my post was long and a bit rambly (I am going on not much sleep here!)
Vehicle for 3 kids in a parkway, radian and SIP 30/30, which seat to move up to for baby (In Canada) and which vehicles to look at for seating and safety.
I appreciate the input
