<div><p>Do you ever feel cramped in your house? No matter how big your house is it still seems like there is always someone in your space. Well this family has really taken it to the next level by moving into a tiny 600 square-foot home. </p><p>Now a 600 square-foot house is roughly half the size (or less) of the average house that a 3 or 4 person family would live in. But inside this tiny little 600 sq ft home a family of six have managed to find a way to live in harmony. Blogger <a href="https://blogs.babycenter.com/author/wbarthel/">Whitney Barthel </a>has shared how they do it. </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/us1-300x225.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><p>They don't have a dishwasher or laundry machines but somehow these parents do just just fine taking care of her four boys. </p><p>She manages to keep everything moving smoothly by using a few important tricks. First of all, she takes frequent trips to the laundromat because not having laundry is the hardest part for her. Four young boys go through A LOT of laundry. </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/tinyhouse-650x585.jpg" srcset="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/tinyhouse-650x585_GH_content_550px.jpg 550w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/tinyhouse-650x585_GH_content_650px.jpg 650w" sizes="89vw" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/20170322_112456-e1490214307504-366x650.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p>Her kitchen might be small but she makes sure she does the dishes right away to get them out of the way.
