- Although may twins become frustrated with being grouped together, sometimes getting them a special experience to do together, is a unique gift that will foster the twins' bond. If the twins have a favorite artist, get them tickets to the concert, and offer to go as chaperone if they are not old enough to go alone,.. If they are going on a vacation soon, give them a special experience like horse-back riding, snorkeling, or swimming with dolphins that they can do with one another to build an unforgettable memory together.
- Make sure you let the twins you are buying for know that you understand they are unique individuals. Try to make them feel special by giving them each gifts tailored to their individual interests. If one likes soccer and the other prefers music, give one twin soccer gear and the other some CDs of his favorite artists. This is something most twins are not use to and will let them know that you don't see them as the same person.
- Many twins are so used to being part of a pair with their sibling that they often feel they get no one-on-one time with other people. Give each twin the gift of one-on-one time with you. Take each one individually to a movie or museum. If you believe each twin would like one-on-one time with his parents, offer to entertain each one at different times so each twin can go to dinner or a movie with Mom and Dad.
- If the twins you are shopping for are infants or small children, then clothing or accessories that will distinguish the two babies is always a good idea. Many times parents of new twins receive lots of matching clothes for their twins, so instead, try to get coordinating outfits in different colors, or even completely different styles of outfits. This will help their parents easily tell the twins apart. You can also give them the give of distinctive bedding and toys, so parents can really start separating each twin.
