How do I get my two kids to nap and sleep in the same room?

kids bedroom ideas for two image

I have two kids, 20mos and 6mos, and up until now they've both had their own rooms. We are downsizing to save money (1 income) and they are going to have to sleep in the same room. What can we do to make this as successful as possible? The 6mos child wakes up once in the night.

Answer
I think the only issue is whether your 20 mos old is a light sleeper or not. Because when he/she wakes up in the middle of the night, you'll have to go in and get her/him and put him/her back after nursing/bottle/diaper change... it might be too much for your 20 mos old.. unless he/she sleeps like a log and you know for sure wont hear a thing.
Why dont you put the 6 mos old baby in your room till he/she sleeps thru the night, and then move her/him into a shared bedroom.
Aside from that, maybe you could tell your oldest, that his/her sibling will be sharing the room, and putting some of the baby's stuff in there so as the older child gets used to the idea. It should be fine!

I need some decorating tips for a kids bedroom?

We are moving into an apartment and my kids will be sharing a room. They are a four year old boy and a two year old girl. I need some decoration ideas for their bedroom that I can do in an apartment. I know I can't paint or nail too much stuff to the walls.

Answer
Use solid colored bed spreads or comforters that will compliment each other but are boy/girl colors ...
Get some stackable Organizer shelves & cubby for books, toys, etc.
and use colored fabric lined baskets or boy/girl colored crates @ Michaels Crafts or JoAnns to store the small stuff...
Put easel backed pictures on top of the shelf/cubby units for added color.
