I have a three-bedroom house, one room for my husband and I, one room for my oldest daughter, and one room for my twins. They are seven and have been sharing a room since they were babies. Now I want to get a four-bedroom house because I think it's time they get their own room. We have the funds, so I'm just deciding if I should go through with it. Is it time?


Answer
Are your kids still comfortable in the same room or are they complaining. Twins have a closeness that we non-twins will never "get". They may even be upset at the idea or sleeping apart. In my opinion as long as they are happy it is appropriate to share a room until closer to puberty maybe 10?

How to fit 4 kids in two 11'x11' bedrooms?

I have a 7 year old daughter, a 5 year old son, and 1 year old twins (boy and girl).
Do you guys have any ideas on how to fit them into two 11 foot by 11 foot bedrooms. Should I put the girls together and the boy together or the older ones together and the twins together. How should we organize their furniture. Should we buy a specific type of furniture (bunk beds for example).
We just moved in and need HELP!!!
Thanks in advance



Answer
Ships captain style bunk beds. Stephen Spielberg arranges his kids' rooms like this in the book Hollywood at Home by Architectural Digest. Don't be intimidated. You can also create DIY solutions for this. Look on sites like Apartment Therapy for small space solutions. I also highly recommend Pinterest for kids and teen room boards for inspiration. I am also a big fan of Christopher Lowell's book on small spaces. You also want to maximize floor space so I suggest that all lighting is off the floor and off table space. You can choose kids' room wall sconces and ceiling lights so tables are free and floor lamps don't get knocked over.
