If you have kids who share a room then you will know how frustrating it can be for you to constantly have to tidy everything up. You will also know how frustrating it can be to constantly have to stand on toys just to make your way across the room as well, but believe it or not, it is more than possible for you to change all of this around. If you want to find out more then you can take a look below.
Always have bunk beds
Bunk beds are very classic when it comes to bedroom choices and the main reason for this is because they make the room very spacious. They make good use of the vertical space you have and they are also great because they free up essential floor space as well. You can have as much furniture as you want and you also have the ability to try and add more storage solutions within the structure of the bed. For example, you may want to try and place some storage shelves near the top bunk or you may even want to look out for beds that have book shelves or even integrated storage space. If you are stuck for ideas or if you just can’t seem to find anything that is going to meet your requirements then we love the kids bunk bed collection at Cuckooland.
Double up
The more furniture you have for storage the better. That being said, the last thing that you need is to have a ton of toy chests lying around. For this reason, it is a good idea for you to purchase furniture that has a dual purpose. You can think about having a toy chest with a cushion on top as this will double up as a seat. You can also have a wall unit that has a desk attached to it as well. You can even have storage compartments that are underneath the desk area for stationary and when you take all of this into account, you will soon find that the whole room becomes much more spacious and that it’s also much easier for you to keep it tidy as well.
Shelve everything
Shelves are a fantastic solution when it comes to organising toys. They are also ideal for storage as well. They are super streamlined and they are also very shallow and this means that they won’t take up too much room. You can put them above your dresser, above your bedroom door or anything else of the sort. If you have younger kids then you need to make it easy for them to reach their books and toys so you may want to place them lower in this instance. If you have older kids, having the shelves higher shouldn’t be a problem and it is a great way for you to make the most out of the vertical space. If you want to step things to the next level, why not have colourful shelves for each item or even have one shelf per child. You can then arrange them for your child or you can even incorporate their favourite colour for their own personal storage space as well. This will make the whole room very stylish and very appealing.
Storage cubes
Believe it or not, storage cubes are a fantastic way for you to help your child’s room to stay organised. You don’t have to have those boring white boxes anymore and now there is a huge range for you to choose from. You can stack them on top of one another and some of them can even be hung on the wall. This will make your child’s room seem way more colourful and you will also find that they are very flexible as well. If you don’t have the room for things like this then you can easily add bags or even hooks as well as this will really bring out the colour of the room and it will make it much more vibrant. You can even give each child their own colour of box as well if you want to encourage them to use their own space and this is a fantastic way for you to really help them to know that tidying up is important and that their toys always have somewhere to go.
Of course, tidying up can be hard work and encouraging your kids to do it can be even harder. When you put the work in however, you will soon see that the whole thing is easier than ever.
