You want to avoid a major war zone but have to make two or more of your kids share a single room. This scenario is nothing short of a nightmare for most parents, especially if they frequently spend their time trying to settle disputes between the siblings. While you would love to give each child their own space, if your home\u2019s floor plan requires you to design a single room to accommodate all your kids, here are some practical shared bedroom ideas to consider and how to implement them to give each child their own space while they share a room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designing an All-Girls\u2019 or All-Boys\u2019 Room<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Siblings of the same gender can often share a room more peacefully, since the general colour scheme and preferences may coincide at some point, resulting in fewer disputes. It is also easier for parents to design a shared bedroom for siblings of the same gender. Here are some kids’ bedroom ideas on how to go about it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Bed for Each Sibling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Give Each Sibling Their Own Bed and Side Table to Avoid Disputes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s start off with the most obvious solution. A bed and a side table for each sibling is the way to go if you want to avoid major conflicts. With respect to the colour scheme, you could choose pink or purple for a shared girls\u2019 room and blue or brown for a shared boys\u2019 room. Our recommendation is to paint the walls in a neutral shade like white or beige and let your kid\u2019s belongings dictate the random touches of colour in the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bunk Beds to Save Floor Space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Having a hard time incorporating two or more single beds in a small room? One of the shared bedroom ideas for small rooms is to opt for vertical bedding options such as bunk beds. They come in a range of styles and can be the perfect way to create some floor space in a small room while providing sleeping accommodations for all your kids. Some bunk beds come with an external staircase; others have the staircase incorporated seamlessly into their design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most bunk beds also offer shelves or small storage spaces at each level so that your kids can place their favourite toys, books, or other belongings in them to personalise their bed. Also, while most bunk beds accommodate up to two people, a custom-designed bunkbed can be perfect for 3-4 kids, depending on your need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even while setting up a shared girls\u2019 room or a shared boys\u2019 room with bunk beds, remember to keep the tones neutral. You can let your children decide the bed sheets for their beds if you want to give them a chance to personalise their space while you design a shared bedroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setting a Theme for the Room<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You can also opt for a themed room if all your girls or boys agree on a single preference. Even if they don\u2019t agree on a single theme, here are some themed combinations that can work well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
