    i wish there were an online community for people who opt to raise families in smaller apartments/homes. It's been hard to find appropriate furniture and ideas.

      Apartment Therapy is a useful one!

      OMG SAME!!! There's a UA-camr "hey Shayla" I think it is, she does a lot that's "Montessori/organic" I guess you would call it, and I've found a lot of inspo from her chanell. She does a lot without space, but it works a lot. She does things a bit "unusual" but she has good ideas on a lot of it. I recommend giving it a listen and seeing what you can pick apart that may help you. It's so important to remember that not everything is going to work for everyone.

    Loved this! We too live in small home with kiddos and were constantly told we need bigger. But we LOVE our home, location, neighbors and the amenities

    I live in Europe and most people raise children in apartments. I have never heard that they'd be deprived of anything. We're near parks and playgrounds and all kind of entertainment options, i'd never move from here to the subburd for more space and...nothing else.

      Lots of people in the US also raise kids in apartments haha people are weird to think we all live in these huge homes.

      It's easier to raise a child in apartment I can imagine because less money. From the apartment. Ur not paying for a house.

    Such a beautiful home and a clever solution. Your style is VERY scandinavian.
    Of course it is possible to live and raise children in appartements, because you make specific and well thought decisions - and that will pay off in all areas of your (family)life.❤
    Thank you so much for showing (especially the North American population) that there are alternatives to the over stuffed, over sized, keeping up with The Jones' kind of life ☀️

    Perfect space!!! :) I would have done the same, enjoy walking everywhere in that beautiful city instead of driving miles everyday and cleaning huge houses.

    The good about small space when you have kids is, you go outside a lot of time rain or shine

      I agree up in a nice mid size house in East Africa. Never once did we play in the house, we were always outside. I miss my childhood.

    Living in Europe this is pretty average and noone would blink twice about having kids in a space this size. I love the windows and generally what the family did with the apartment style-wise, but really, outside a certain continent there's another world where this square footage is normal.

    At the end of the video she sounded like she was trying to sell that house to a reluctant family of 5 😂 the space is gorgeous and functional,that’s all that matters.❤️

      I remember when I thought that wouldn't be a big deal.
      It's not something I wish to relive. Privacy is HUGE for both parents and children

    You're not allowing the kids to have their own space it's actually sad you're messing up their mental state of your own child, people need space to themselves😮.
