hi Burberry,
in 12 days you are spreading yourselves pretty thin. assuming you are arriving in Barcelona on day 1, you've got only 2 1/2 days there, ditto Rome, and in Seville, you actually only have one day.
I would suggest losing one place from the itinerary - Rome or Seville.
Remember, every time you move you lose at least 1/2 a day. then you have to check in, orient yourselves to a new place, etc. etc. Day 1 could be worse if you've flown in from North America and are suffering from lack of sleep/jetlag.
do you have 12 full days or do you fly home on day 12?

Are day 1 and day 12 travel days? If so, you only have 7 full days to begin with. You can easily add more days in three places you are staying in Spain. If you insists more locations, there are nearby gems in Spain like Granada, Cordoba, and Toledo.

Possible missing Grenada and Cordoba for Rome...... Nah drop Rome. It makes no sense, you have to get used to whole differrent country and way of doing things for the time in Rome. Now if you'd flown into Rome and out of Madrid, maybe.
The next issue is what are you looking for
Art
Roman antiquities
Catholic church symbols?
Because all of those are in Spain as well as Rome

I would drop Rome for this trip and add the time to Barcelona and Seville. With your present itinerary, you are spending more time in airports and planes/train stations and trains than experiencing the destinations.
