[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something that I think hasn't been mentioned is not the number, but the age gap. Our 1st and 3rd are just 5 years apart (11/9/6), which is pretty typical, but that makes finding age-appropriate activities harder. If we go to a museum, oldest two would be happy but littlest is bored after a short time. Oldest one doesn't want to hang out at the playground. Or just finding a movie that's appropriate for the whole family or a book to read to them all is hard. Hopefully in a few years though the oldest will be able to help the youngest out more, which you wouldn't have with two closer in age.[/quote] This is a good point. A five or six year age difference is different than 3 years. It’s harder to find things to do. You will have kids at home longer, longer before all the kids are in school, etc. [/quote]
