Have a day one box with things you may want in first 24 hours. Maybe a set of plates, glasses, cups, toys etc if you aren't unpacking fully in one go. Have a takeaway and celebrate moving in.

Eldest is 5 and then 4 year old twins. They dont understand about it much so have planned for them to have a weekend at grandparents whilst we get on with moving, putting up beds, etc.

Good point. We get into a routine and it is hard to break free from it sometimes.
