Ok dolls house dilemma, could mentally scar one child for life, how would you play it?

[Enid]

If dd1 and 2 start to share a room, there will not be room for two dollshouses.

Would you dump dd1s - she never plays with it but it is very nice looking
or dd2s - HUGE and really too big but she plays with it a lot

or get rid of both? or neither (actuallky not an option)

arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Could you cut them both in half and have two semis?

Sell dd1s on ebay.

Will dd1 be distraught at losing hers? It could be really difficult - especially if she isn't crazy about having to share her room.
Could you suggest selling it and buying her something else to replace it to keep her sweet?

Get rid of both and buy something else. We had one that no one ever played with, ended up at the charity shop.

Get rid of both and then buy a smaller one (smaller than dd2's) that they can share.

we used to have a huge dollshouse - you could climb through the middle of it - and when we grew out of it my mum lent it to the school. But it got trashed and we never got it back. I really wish we still had it but I appreciate it would have been hard for my mum to store for 20 years. She really regrets giving it away though as her dad made it.

hmm like the getting rid of both and buying another idea (although expensive)

I want the playmobile house for dd2 (she would LOVE it) so I could say it is for both to share - god would they argue over it though

My dd never played with her (very expensive) dolls house but got very upset when I suggested moving it into her brother's bedroom. I left it for a bit, she still didn't play with it, so I moved it downstairs and ds2 now plays with it loads (she occasionally tidies it up, moaning about how the boys have messed it up - which is hilarious when you see the state of her room!). Could you do something similar with your dd1's house, ie find somewhere else downstairs?

trash them with bulldozer, saying it's all part of John Prescott's plan to pave over the entire south of England

do you have a playroom or is the dollshouse space just in the bedroom? (always imagine enid towers being cottagey but roomy iykwim )

Discuss with dd1 and see whether she would be prepared to sell it and get something else instead?
Come up with a cunning mezzanine / bunk / plan, or have one house suspended from the ceiling on a pulley so that it can be lowered into the centre of the floor when in use?
Do the Dolls houses have to be in the bedroom? (esp DD1's since it is nice looking?)

tbh, I think I would do a lot to avoid getting rid of their things to make room for the baby - until all potential for jealousy and resentment has passed.

Could DD1s house go in your room?

dd loves her Playmobil house but it is a bit limited as regards furniture. Lots of figures adn few beds and chairs ! We'll probably get the extra floor and stairs for her birthday but don't think there are many extra sets to furnish them !

wait till one of them really annoys you then say right that does it .. then smash hers to hell .. guaranteed good behaviour for a week at least I think

lol bundle and twiglett

I was planning to use the spare room as a playroon type thing (haven if sharing becomes too much) so could leave one in there. Maybe one could go on the landing too.

marthamoos idea is best

Double dolls house \link{http://www.thedollshousecompany.co.uk/phdi/p1.nsf/supppages/0951?opendocument&part=3\here}(second one down). They could have one half each? But prob too big.

dd1s nice-looking little-used one onto landing, dd2s into playroom/spare room?

I would keep DD2 house as she is playing with and would probably missed it most. Put DD1 house in "storage" and tell her so.
Wouldn't take away both of them TBH. It would just add more stress and upset on the top of tem sahring a room
