my dp wants our 2 yrs old dd to share the bedroom with her 8 yrs old sister

[Biglips]

8 yrs old sister come and stay over every 2 week from Friday - Sunday and DD will be sleeping on the bottom bunk bed

whatta think with the age gap??

What does the sister think?

well we've not asked her yet....and wont be seeing her till next weekend. i can imagine she say Yes - i think!!

Sounds fine. My two (who admittedly are very close in age) love sharing. Bunk beds are cool.

Sounds very sensible, bet both of them will really enjoy it.

my 7 year old is always asking to share a room with her 2 yr old sister. It sounds like a fine idea to me

It sounds like a lovely idea to me, as long as the 8yo agrees. My two (they're two years apart though) love sharing, in fact when we moved house I assumed they would want a room each and was put straight by ds1 - we will be sharing, thank you very much Mummy . So they share the master bedroom and they love it.

yes i think thats the best thing to ask her.

im just scared that one day SD will scream and DD will be there with all the ripped books around her!! just like she had done today with a leappad book !!!!

My DS(7.5) and DD(2) share a bedroom. No problems at all and DS doesn't feel embarrassed or annoyed to be sharing with his little sister. We have an extra bedroom which we use as a playroom and would change into a bedroom for either of them if this arrangment doesn't suit them anymore.

DD (4) and dsd (11) have shared a room since dd was about 6 months' old with no problems.

I think lovely, really nice for them both (as long as they both want to, of course)
