Confused over which car to get - 2 small kids/small car

In the market to buy a car - for me plus two young kids (aged 2 and 4). it will be a second car - DH has a company car (Grand Scenic) which is the main family car for holidays etc.

FIL (car expert) has suggested a Dacia Sandero. Could buy new as cheap.
I hanker after a VW Polo.
Have read good reviews re Toyota Yaris on here - could probably buy a newish model with low mileage at a reasonable price.

We live in France.

It would be a runaround but I would also be doing some motorway driving (not long distances though).

I'm looking for safety, cheap to run/to insure, maybe a 1.4 size engine - comfortable to drive, petrol model.

Anyone got any tips????

I have a 2006 Polo and she is brilliant. Very reliable and I haven't had to spend much on her upkeep since I bought her in 2011.
