Having a large family can be an amazing experience. However, the downside to having a large family often comes in accommodating everybody within your home and creating a home that is comfortable and suitable for everyone.
Unfortunately it is not possible for most of us to simply go out and buy a larger house, which is why making the best use of your space is crucial. Consider the three main areas of the house which are important for the family and work on making these as comfortable and accommodating as possible.

Bedrooms are an obvious choice and if possible, try and put children together in a bedroom if that is feasible. Sofa beds make a good addition to a smaller bedroom as can be pulled out at night time or used for when you have friends over.
The dining area is another place where the entire family may get together. During warmer months it is a good idea to try and dine outside at some points, as there is usually more space. For times when this is not possible, consider either folding tables if you cannot fit a large dining table in. Alternatively, you may need to feed your family at different sittings, so younger children first then older after.

The living space is probably the most crucial as this is where the family will gather to relax and spend time together. A great addition to a lounge can be a corner sofa bed, as the corner design enables more members of the family to gather together, whilst the corner sofa bed element means it can be transformed into a spare bed for guests or family friends.
At Beds Direct we have a great range of sofa beds which are stylish enough to look great in your lounge, making it a haven for those family gatherings.
