1) Reply to this post with your answer to the TwinTuesday QOTW:

What kind of fun ideas for twin birthday parties have you tried out in the past, or have been thinking about trying?

For Anna and Josie's first birthday, I came up with a party game called "Which Twin?" On a cork board, I posted several photos of either Anna or Josie, and asked all the party participants to write down their guess of which twin was in each photo.

Nobody got a 100% right, but some did better than others :-p And, everyone had a lot of fun with it!

This particular game might only work for identical twins, or fraternal twins that look a lot alike, but even with the physical differences they exhibited in early infancy, due to the TTTS, everyone had such a hard time figuring out which twin was in each picture.

Heck, even today, Anna and Josie themselves, sometimes have a hard time determining which one of them is in a certain picture :-p And many times if they see an old picture of me, they think it's them, too :-p

So, how 'bout you? Any great twin party ideas you'd be willing to share?? I actually could use some more, since the girls' 5th birthday is coming up on May 1st :-)

I'd use the credit to get some "tickets" for my next upcoming ward party I'm in charge of! They would make very cute fliers!!

I have nine more months to figure out what to do for that first Twin Birthday. I wish I had better ideas, but I am pretty bad at planning parties for my singletons.

For their 4th and 5th birthday, we threw "two parties in one" for the kids. They each get to pick a theme, and 1/2 the room is decorated in one theme, and the other half is the other theme. They still have all the same friends, so that's not a problem yet - but that way they each feel like they are getting what they want.

P.S. I also tweeted and facebooked. ;)

I am following you, I tweeted, I'm a fan on FB, I posted to my wall, I installed the button, and now I'm going to work on my post. :) I will link it in a bit.

We are having a Disney Themed party (non-birthday) for the twins in a month. This would be awesome timing for cutey pie invitations. We'll see it I can pull this off in 3-4 weeks.

We're having our boys birthday party early next month with a bbq and swing set for outdoor picnic fun!

Here is my post http://littletechgirl.com/2010/04/13/twintuesday-qotw-birthday-ideas/

And, I did check out the site. I would use the certificate towards some postcards for an event that I am doing to go in our swag bags. :)

In the past, we have done a Mario and Luigi party, since the twins each have a favorite. I typically have required that they get together and choose the same theme. It takes them a bit, but they can usually agree on something. We've done NASCAR, Super Mario Bros (as I said above),and this year we are doing a movie theater party.

I suppose in the future, we might be open to separate parties, especially since they are in different classes in school and have different friends.

Hi Jen,

I've posted some photos from last year's birthday celebrations.

Thanks again for the twinspiration!
