We are sorting out the kids rooms as the youngest is ready to come out of her cot. This causes an issue in that we had been using her room as the spare and just moving her cot in with her brother when people stayed as there was a double bed in there.
Once we put up her single bed we will get rid of the double bed, and we have got a new sofabed for the spare room / study which is fine for accommodating grandparents, but leaves me wondering what to do when friends with kids visit as the parents will have the sofabed but that leaves us with no where for the kids.
Neither of my kids has a pull out bed under their bed as I thought that underbed storage would be more useful for us. I've been looking at roll up bed in a bag type things from GLTC but think they would probably take up too much room when not in use and be quite large to store. Other alternatives are airbeds like the aerobed, but I'm not sure whether to get a couple of singles or doubles (most of the kids who visit us are currently under 5, but obviously will grow bigger!) or camping mats (but conscious this might be a bit of a harsh option given we have wooden floors in bedrooms)
Any advice as to how people accommodate this would be gratefully received.
