and get that much needed sleep!

After two night of blasting the fan on full power to deaden the noise of music from outside, I decided enough was enough, and that inshaAllah nothing was going to stop me from sound-proofing my bedroom window. So after a few minutes of googling, I found something called window plugs. Basically these are boards which fit into the window recess and the best thing is you can make them yourself. It's cheaper than secondary glazing, and you can take it off when you don't need it.

Well read here and follow the link in the reply. I don't know about anyone else but for me it's a dream come true. :statisfie

Good Good!!!

Do you have anything for doors?

From my window side there is nothing wrong, but sometimes those naughty nephews and nieces make some noise when they gather in the living room and that make me nervous and prevent me from having a good sleep <_<

Aw sis. Children have such high pitched voice. I empathise. I really do. The good news is you can sound proof doors too. If requires a bit of effort but it's worth it. I'll find the site where I read about that inshaAllah.

Wa iyyaki! Bless you, you brought back some memories. We used to play in our hallway lol. But we'd play blind-man's-bluff, so we'd have to be quiet to avoid being caught. It's a tag game but the person who is 'on' is blind-folded. Introduce your nieces & nephews to that and give them a special blind fold lol. Ours was a plastic fire-man's hat we'd bought on a seaside trip. It protected our faces too. Especially my brother's when his head went to the glass door lolsss! Ohh I feel like playing it now lol : E

lol thats really nice funny, thanks for the laugh, there is nothing like childhood memories!

And don't worry they are aware of all games like those, and even invent some new ones!!
and yeah we too used to play blind-man's-bluff by stealing mom's scarf to act as a blind fold lol

your brother was very lucky that the hat came in very handy to him


On topic:I just finished watching videos. Doors sound proofing is way harder than windows!!:exhausted
 
^lol mashaAllah!

@soundproofing doors.. I know it's bit more tricky than doing windows, but once done it's there for good. Alternatively you can hang heavy drapes on both sides of the door. This will prevent some noise from getting through. But are the children playing like this when you're trying to sleep at night, or day time? If it's night they should be in bed grrr.
