We are right next door to LO now, which is nice. I certainly won't feel that is necessary once she is older, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521274 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:16:12 +0000 Alivoo01 521274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd keep the playroom upstairs to keep all the toys/clutter up there and out of sight for when guests come over. Less clean up for me because it'll only be upstairs. ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521210 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:03:55 +0000 blackbird 521210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My SIL has older kids (3 and 5) and the kids room+playroom are upstairs and it seems like a nice set up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521208 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:03:40 +0000 Bao 521208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MRS. LEMON-LIME: There is no attached bath anywhere in the house, that's what makes this a toss up. If there were a bath attached I would be in that room lol, I've always wanted a bath attached. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521200 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:02:00 +0000 BelugaBean 521200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would put the playroom downstairs and all of the bedrooms upstairs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521175 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:55:40 +0000 Smurfette 521175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely put the playroom downstairs. That way LO can play while you cook or relax in the LR when she gets old enough to not have to be in the room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521172 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:55:12 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 521172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If all the rooms are a good size and you don't mind not having an attached master bath, then put the playroom downstairs. I imagine a playroom on the samefloor as the kitchen is useful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521148 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:47:40 +0000 Mrsbells 521148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would want to be near my kids rooms, especially in the infant stage i wouldnt want to have to keep running up and down stairs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521113 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:40:35 +0000 Bao 521113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I added a poll! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521106 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:39:33 +0000 chopsuey 521106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Playroom downstairs and all bedrooms upstairs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521104 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:38:35 +0000 Bao 521104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: All rooms and closets are the same size, no bathroom in any of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521103 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:38:12 +0000 autumnlove 521103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want the playroom downstairs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521062 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:30:11 +0000 MrsTiz 521062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would put my master on the first floor. Are all the closets/bathroom setups the same? I wouldn't give up a WIC and bathroom for the sake of being closer to LO's room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521051 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:27:01 +0000 hilsy85 521051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would also do playroom on the main floor and all bedrooms upstairs. It can always be switched down the road when kids are older! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521042 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:25:03 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 521042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd want to be separate from the kid's rooms so I would put the master on the first floor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/room-set-up-options#post-521035 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:23:26 +0000 Bao 521035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If your house had 3 bedrooms upstairs, and one bedroom on the main floor (all the same size), would you:</p> <p>Put all bedrooms up, and playroom on the main floor or master on the main floor and kiddos and playroom up? I'm thinking playroom on the main floor, but would love opinions! </p>
