It may be nice to talk to your sibling's about the friend to get to know them without being rude.

Whatever you do while getting along with your siblings' friends, don't take over. Don't take over any activity. Don't domineer the friends' time.

And get to know your siblings' friends so that you can all get along and enjoy each other.
