<p>I&#8217;ve shared with you a couple of posts about our experience with the Chrysler Town &amp; Country mini-van. First, I told you about our <strong><a title="Camping with the Chrysler Town &amp; Country" href="../life/camping-with-chrysler-town-country/">first camping trip and how the Town &amp; Country helped</a></strong>. Then, I went over some of the <a title="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Features Busy Families Will Love" href="http://www.modernmami.com/life/chrysler-town-country-features-we-love/"><strong>features we loved about the Chrysler Town &amp; Country</strong></a>. For this last post in the series, I thought it would be fun to ask my 6-year-old daughter what she liked about the van. I&#8217;d ask our baby boy too, but his 1-year-old vocabulary is a little limited.</p>
<p>I can say that both my kids had fun riding in the Town &amp; Country. You could see they enjoyed sitting in separate bucket seats and having a space to call their own. Baby boy loved walking around the car &#8211; back and forth from the back where the third row of seats were folded down to his seat in the second row.</p>
<p><span id="more-5810"></span></p>
<p><img class="wp-image-5816 aligncenter" title="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Front Touchscreen Console" src="http://www.modernmami.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/chrysler-town-country-front-touchscreen-console.jpg" alt="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Front Touchscreen Console" width="490" height="339" /></p>
<p>When I asked my girl to tell me why she liked the van, specifically, here are some of the features she enjoyed:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Touchscreen console</strong>: My girl told me she thought the radio up front was cool. Confused, I asked her to explain because I wasn&#8217;t understanding what was so cool about a car radio. Turns out, she liked that the navigation console was touchscreen.</li>
<li><strong>Flashlight</strong>: The Town &amp; Country has a small flashlight in the trunk area. We actually used it at one point during our camping trip when we couldn&#8217;t find our own. Apparently, she thought it was cool that a car came with its own flashlight.</li>
<li><strong>Double DVD screens</strong>: Though this is not a standard feature, my baby girl thought the two DVD screens were nice because anyone sitting in the third row can more easily see what is playing.</li>
<li><strong>Headphones</strong>: In the ceiling compartments by the DVD screens, were headphones the kids could use to listen to their show. That way, the driver and other passengers didn&#8217;t have to listen to the movie also, and could enjoy music for themselves. I find that little things like these matter to the little people.</li>
<li><strong>Extra seating</strong>: Since both cars that we own only seat five people, my girl liked that there was an extra third row with more seats available. Of course, this is what makes a mini-van a mini-van, but for her, it was something new and exciting.</li>
</ul>
<p>I love getting kids&#8217; perspectives on things. It&#8217;s always fun to see what they think and listening to my girl describe why she liked the Chrysler Town &amp; Country did not disappoint.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5792" title="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Van" src="http://www.modernmami.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/chrysler-town-country.jpg" alt="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Van" width="490" height="298" /></p>
<p>As I shared earlier, we recently took a <a id="" href="../life/camping-with-chrysler-town-country/" shape="rect" target="_blank">Chrysler Town &amp; Country mini-van for a spin</a> and even went on our first camping trip with it! The van we were loaned had a lot of features and some upgrades since it was a mid-level Town &amp; Country. But, most of the features come standard even at the basic level. You can play around with the different feature options and available packages <a id="" href="http://www.chrysler.com/en/2012/town-country/" rel="nofollow" shape="rect" target="_blank">on their site</a> for more information.</p>
<p>I have to say that some of the Town &amp; Country features really sell this van. You can tell the designers truly thought about the needs of busy on-the-go families. Here are a few of our favorites:</p>
<p><span id="more-5787"></span></p>
<p><strong>Stow &#8216;n Go Seating</strong></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5794" title="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Stow 'n Go Seating" src="http://www.modernmami.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/chrysler-town-country-stow-go-seating.jpg" alt="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Stow 'n Go Seating" width="490" height="325" /></p>
<p>The <a id="" href="http://www.chrysler.com/en/2012/town-country/#stow_go" rel="nofollow" shape="rect" target="_blank">Stow &#8216;n Go feature of the Chrysler Town &amp; Country</a> is a super useful feature allowing you to fold down the seats in the second and third rows. But, you&#8217;re not just able to fold down the back of the seat &#8211; instead the entire seat folds down flat into the floor. You can fold down each of the second row seats individually and fold down either one, two, or all three of the third row seats.</p>
<p>We pretty much had the third row folded down the entire time we had the van, since we started with our camping trip and obviously needed the space for it. The rest of the week, I left them down and was able to enjoy more trunk space. We also played around and folded down the two second row seats, but left the third row up. This made for a nice space in the middle for the kids to sit and play, something that was extra fun for them!</p>
<p><strong>DVD Player</strong></p>
<p>For long car trips, a DVD player comes in handy, especially with our 1-year-old. We don&#8217;t use it for every car ride, but there are times when putting on a movie or TV show definitely helps to calm him down or entertain him. It&#8217;s nice to know that this feature comes standard, as most times you have to add it on. A second DVD screen can be added on as an upgrade, but a <a id="" href="http://www.chrysler.com/en/2012/town-country/#leather_dvd" rel="nofollow" shape="rect" target="_blank">single DVD screen comes standard on the Town &amp; Country</a>. Cool, right?</p>
<p><strong>Rear Back Up Camera<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5793" title="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Rear Back Up Camera" src="http://www.modernmami.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/chrysler-town-country-rear-backup-camera-300x300.jpg" alt="Chrysler Town &amp; Country Rear Back Up Camera" width="280" height="280" /></strong></p>
<p>I am one of those people that has trouble seeing everything when backing up, especially in bigger cars. I blame it on the fact that I&#8217;m short. The rear back up camera was really useful to be able to see how close I was to objects or if anything was in my way.</p>
<p><strong>Interior Conversation Mirror</strong></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-5791 alignleft" title="Interior Conversation Mirror in Chrysler Town &amp; Country" src="http://www.modernmami.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/conversation-mirror.jpg" alt="Interior Conversation Mirror in Chrysler Town &amp; Country" width="350" height="269" /></p>
<p>This is a minor feature compared to the rest, but the little mirror you can drop down in the front overhead console was something I liked. It was nice to be able to see the kids in the back by just glancing up at the mirror. Even as a passenger, it was better to quickly look up at the mirror rather than turn around to see how they were doing.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be sharing one more post with you about our experience with the Chrysler Town &amp; Country.
