We are buying a house and it has three bedrooms. Two small ones and one bigger one. Our daughter plays in her room and all we do is sleep in ours. She has alot more stuff than we do. My husband wants her to have the small room but I think she should have the bigger room. What should we do?

give her the small room and you get the big room. but use the other room for her. decorate it as something that she really likes, like her favorite movie or sport. for the other room for her, put all of her toys and movies and stuff like that in there so the other room can be for sleeping. don't listen to the people who were being rude and said that she didn't deserve better, it wasn't their place to say so and that wasn't even the question that you asked.

Give her a smaller room and use the other small room as a playroom is a great idea! That way she will have one that she keeps clean and the other one where she can spread everything out and play to her hearts content! I have a seven year old too and she doesn't have a play room yet but is getting one this spring along with her three siblings due to the fact that the clothes get thrown into the toy boxes and the toys are in the dressers and it just seems to be a mess all of the time. Not only that but I think it is important that you and your hubby have space you may not have a lot of stuff to go in there but I am sure that you have a bigger bed and more dressers so you need the room as well.

By all means she does not need a bigger room. She is only 7 years old.
What I would do I would start uncluttering some of her stuff.
"I would do it when is in kindergarten I assume , that's where she is during the day.
You should decide which one of the things can be given to charity.
Than I would purchase some of these organizations bins you can find these boxes in all the stores now a days. I would label them what goes in there. I would teach her than how to put them away properly.
I hope this gives you some ideas. Also go to the Marth Stewart websites.

Here you can get many organing ideas.

I highly suggest you think about the implications of your decision. You are 2 people, she is 1 person. You are larger people, she is smaller. You are both paying for the house, she will be moving out in 15 years.
It is not an issue today, but it certainly will be when she is 15 and wants other things as her right and privilege. Please, be the adult here and exercise caution with such decisions. You and dad should get the bigger room.

I have friends who gave the larger of their bedrooms to their kids for just the reason you said: the kids have a lot more stuff and they spend time in their room playing. I also like the idea of one of the smaller rooms being her playroom. Sometimes, though, kids like having a small cozy room. It's more their size.
I guess I'm saying whatever you decide will be fine. (And if you don't like it, you can just switch around later.)

You and hubby take the big room, give the daughter the smaller room and use the spare one as a play room.

No question - Mom and Dad get the luxury room - the big one. You two are the top dogs. To give her the big one would be a big mistake. It will send a message that you will "pay for" again and again.

i could comply with no longer make a huge deal of it. Letting her have a say in adorning her new area (will she have her own room or is she sharing with the 13 12 months previous?) and don't respond to something. (that may no longer somewhat comparable to ignoring it. possible hear in case you difficulty approximately how she feels yet do no longer permit her understand you're listening truly and don't respond to it.) I felt slightly guilt continuously that i grew to become into unseating the final infant each time a sparkling one grew to become into born (I in basic terms have 3) yet, the two situations, a sparkling sibling grew to become into mind-blowing for them as quickly as we've been given over the adjustment. with a bit of luck, your seven 12 months previous will like them better while they get right here.
