Anyone living in a yurt full time with children?

[Ouryurtlife]

Hi Paige! Yay!love to hear about other families making this move! I will admit, when the platform was finished and I stood on it with my three children running and chasing each other around me.... My heart dropped a little. For the first time, I wondered if it was simply just TOO small. But I forced myself to remain positive and push forward, for whatever reason, it felt bigger again once the walls were up, and even more so when the loft was finished. The only suggestion I would make, is to possibly find a company that makes the kits with rafters longer than 15ft. We got the tall wall upgrade, but if only the rafters were a little longer than there would be a little more head room for the kiddos upstairs. Either way, we made it work and they feel like their room is their own little fort ps. I totally suggest you go with the 14 x 16 bathroom, it seems kind of large, but is the perfect size with our clawfoot, compostable toilet, water heater, washer and dryer, sink, and then to use as a closet as well since we do all of our changing/laundry in the bathroom anyways. We aren't finished with the bathhouse yet, but it's all a process. I believe you can click on that snowy yurt image of mine and it will take you to images of our yurt, but if not, here is an image of our living area and I will post more if you can't see my album for some reason
