To think there must be a polite way of telling neighbours that their kids are too noisy?

[FizzyIce]

We live in a mid terrace and in the last 5 months we have had new neighbours either side .
Both lots have 2 boys of primary school age and bloody hell, they're so noisy !
They’re constantly screeching,shouting and thumping up and down the stairs so it sounds like a herd of elephants .
The ones on the left side seem to quieten down in the evening so there’s some respite but the other side can have them running about until midnight sometimes .
I was woken up by one side fucking about at 7:30 this morning and dd says they’re so loud it’s like they’re in her room!
Then the other 2 started up on the other side.
Now nursing a banging headache .
Is there a polite way to tell the neighbours that their children are too noisy ? Or should I just put up and shut up ?

I know it's annoying. We live in a semi detached so we only get it on one side they have two boys who we hear a lot. Perhaps they don't know how think the walls are?
If you don't want to confront them you could turn the telly up or put music on so they know how loud it is . Or you could say you like to hear children enjoying themselves but would they be able to keep it down until a reasonable time. Say you understand it's difficult as the walls are think but you'd really appreciate it
Invest in some ear plugs for your family too. During the day I don't think there's a lot you can do though.

We just turn up the tv! I can cope with the thumping up and down stairs, the shrieking and the crying but the fecking stairgate rattling off the party wall is going to push me over the edge

You have my sympathy

Difficult one OP, unless you say something, they might not realise how much you can hear. I would be inclined to wait until you see your neighbours and say something like do you hear any noise from me? And see how the conversation develops.

@Rosebel yeah that’s true, dd doesn’t make much noise so they probably don’t hear much from us so maybe not aware .
I actually always sleep with ear plugs but dd gets ear infections so I don’t think they’d be a good idea for her .
@StoorieHoose oh god, that would do nut in.
The younger one has such a high pitched screech it goes straight through me , I think he’s a bit of a handful though as watched him kick off because he wanted to sit in the front seat of the car and was screaming so his dad took a fiver out of his wallet and chucked it on the back seat and the kid jumped in the back
@Roselilly36 very good idea , I think that’s the way to go .
They’re both nice enough but my dd needs to get some decent sleep! (And me )

They’re still bloody going now , it’s literally been all day.
At this rate politeness will be out the window!
Next house will be detached
