Different room temps with furnace

Hello. Wondering if people experience drastic room temperature differences in their units and how they manage that. My last TT was a Salem, pretty standard model and we never really had drastic temp differences. In our new fifth wheel though if we set the furnace temp to let’s say 64 in the “living room” as that’s where the thermostat for the furnace reads it can get up to 70 or 71 in our room in front. Prefer to not drop living room temp too much because our kids sleep that way. Any tips people do to mitigate this? Thanks!

Run a small table top fan to help circulate the air. Does the new 5'er have a ceiling fan?

Close the bedroom door & put a towel over the bedroom floor heat vent (that's what we do).

In fifth wheels, since heat rises it will naturally migrate to the upper bedroom & become trapped there & just get hotter.
