Migration habits… of children?

Since Covid, our kids have been sleeping in the same room. To begin with, it was a cheap sell to mix things up a bit – the only available sleep over.

Then my daughter moved downstairs last May, kicking my husband out of his ‘study’, to get a bit more space.

My son then joined her as he was lonely – he could no longer “talk through the wall” to her and it was cooler. Remember the actual summer we had last year?!

Then September came and it started to get cold and dark, so they moved north again (up the stairs).

This year the migration south has been a bit shorter, with indications of indecision as they roam between rooms.

We’re watching for a more settled pattern in the coming weeks…
