You children may be growing up in the blink of an eye, but your house remains the same size. While sharing a bedroom with your sibling can be fun and exciting when young, as children grow older they strive for independence and a bit of privacy too.

If moving home isn’t an option, there may be ways to help re-arrange your children’s bedroom to optimise their privacy. Stud walls can be easily installed into the home and will make two small rooms from one large room. An alternative is to add a curtain through the middle of the room, this provides the best of both worlds for your children. They can draw the curtain when the want their own space and some privacy, and the curtain can be opened if they want to spend time with their siblings.

There are also plastic partition walls that are less permanent that adding a stud wall into the home. They can be put up and take down easily and cause no permanent damage to the homes interior.
