thanks for any and all input.

Answer 1

7 rooms

Leslie and Bridget
Jaymee, Emma and Sylvee
Madelyn, Jayden
Jason, Derek
Zachary, Kyle and Jacob
Micah, Shayne and Joshua
Jonah, Zoe and Noah

Answer 2

You said the kids wanted to switch rooms and buddies but did not let us know who wanted to be buddies with whom!

Don't know if this will work - but here's a try:
Can the attic be split into 2 areas? Leslie-17 & Jason-19

Then by age and gender:
Bridget-15, Jaymee-14
Emma-11, Sylvee-9
Madelyn-7, Jayden-7, Zoe-2

Derek-16, Zachary-12 (or Kyle-12)
Kyle-12, Jacob-10 (or Zachary-12)
Micah-8, Shayne-8, Joshua-6
Jonah-3, Noah-10 mo

Good luck!

Answer 3

You may want to consider giving the 17 and 19 year olds their own room each. They will have different needs depending on whether they are in college or working, and at that age, require some privacy. You may want to consider splitting the attic space for them.
Next put the 14+15 year old girls in one room together, and ditto for the 12-16 yr old boys. The 6 & 8 yr old boys should share another room. The 7, 9 & 11 year old girls another.
The 2 & 3 year old boys and girls can share a room together, as they don't really need to be sexually separated until later, and by then hopefully some of the older kids would have been moved out. The 10 month old gets the smallest room as a nursery. (You really don't want an infant in with the boistrous toddlers, you'd never get any sleep)

It will get tougher if you try to put teens in with pre-teens. Teens need some privacy and space to nurture independence. And having a pre-teen little bro or sis around means you have none of that. The 16 year old boy is a particular problem, if you have to put him in with the 12 year old brothers, unless the 19 year old brother is willing to share space with him.

Answer 4

Well I would say for now try to allow the 3 oldest to have their own rooms. And the 3 youngest share a room. They are young enough to share a room even if it's boy girl. so here it goes. Attic-Jason, #1 Zoe, Jonah, Noah,#2-Bridget, Jaymee, Emma #3-Sylvee, Madelyn, Jayden, #4 Micha, Shayne, Joshua, #5 Jacob, Kyle, Zachary, #6- Leslie #7 Derek. Hope this helps.

Answer 5

Well in my house all babies 1 yr and under sleep in my room, so Noah would be with me.
As for the rest I would do,
Leslie, Bridget, Jamie
Emma, Sylvee, Madelyn, Jaden
Jason,
Derek, Zachary, Kyle
Jacob, Micah, Shayne,Joshua
Jonah Zoe and when Noah turns one he goes here too.

Turn one room into a big walk in closet for the entire family.
Turn the attic into a big playroom for all the kids, little sitting room off to one side and little "preschool corner at another side. All toys stay in attic and the kids bedrooms are just for sleeping.

When Zoe turns 5 she would leave the boys room that I placed her in and the ages on the girls side would all be bumped up a room. Oldest boy would most likely be out of home or off to college, so oldest girl got room to self then.

But that is just me.

Answer 6

Hmmm, wow. lots of youngsters. i assume it relies upon on how huge the rooms are too. i might positioned the 4 365 days previous boy and the two 365 days previous boy interior an identical room. in line with possibility the 13 month previous can sleep with the mummy and dad for awhile and than later flow into that room with 4 and 2. The six 365 days previous and the 8 365 days previous in yet another room. the two 9 365 days olds and the 14 365 days previous interior the attic. the two 13's and the 11 can share. i might probable have it so the nineteen, 17, and sixteen 365 days previous have their very own because of fact little ones % their very own area and are plenty extra possibly to % a quiet place to do their analyze. Then, while between the oldest strikes out the subsequent oldest could have the "huge newborn" luxurious of their very own room!

Answer 7

I think you as the parents should assign buddies.
Then write the names on slips of paper (buddies on the same paper) and draw from a hat to assign rooms.

If there are special needs or personalities that are incompatible to share a room, assign those children a room before conducting the lottery drawing.

Have fun and good luck.

3- Madelyn and Jayden and Zoe

Put Joshua, Shayne , and Micah in one room
Emma and Jaymee in one room
