There are so many gimmicks and gadgets made for babies (and kids). Today’s twin tip is aimed to save you a little dough.
If at all possible, Borrow Before You Buy
Ask friends and family to borrow items you are thinking about purchasing. If you cannot borrow what you are looking for, start with just one. (Twins learn to share early.)
Take these swings for example: I thought babies needed swings. My mom bought us two very nice (read that as slightly expensive) swings. As you can see from the photo above, the boys didn’t care for them too much. They did grow to like the swing, but by that time they also grew out of them.
Lessons I learned:
- Babies grow fast!
- Baby gadgets are expensive.
- Twins do not necessarily like the same things.
- Think creatively.
That’s it, short and sweet. Thanks for stopping by to read my Quick Twin Tip. I hope this helps anyone approaching baby season.
