There are two of them, and it's not that simple: what no one tells you

I still remember that exact moment: my girlfriend announced that she had just had two adorable twin girls . Intense joy... followed by this very down-to-earth thought: and what should I get them? 😅

I spent hours searching. And frankly, at first I made every mistake possible . I bought two identical stuffed animals. The result? A useless double gift, with no personal touch. The parents smiled politely, but I felt it fell a little flat.

Looking back, I can tell you one thing: when it comes to twin birth gifts , it's not the quantity that counts. It's the personalization , and the real help you provide in their daily lives.

Why a twin birth gift should not be chosen at random

Twin birth gift: identical or mismatched?

It's the big question we all ask ourselves. Do parents want twice the size of everything? Not necessarily. And above all: not everything the same . We tend to think that twins need twice the size of everything. But no. They share a lot, but they remain two different babies , with two unique personalities .

To avoid:

- Offering the same cuddly toy or outfit twice

- Offer a single gift that they will share

To be favored:

- Gifts in pairs, complementary but not identical

- A touch of personalization (first name, color, symbol, etc.)

Twin gift box: the winning combo

I'm going to tell you about a gift that was a hit when I gave it to friends: a custom-made twin birth box .

What it contained:

- 2 personalized baby hairbrushes (with the first name + a different illustration for each)

- 2 pacifier clips in two matching prints

- 1 teething ring + 1 rattle

- 2 bibs each with a different print

The result: the parents were moved, and above all: everything was useful to them on a daily basis . No "too cute but useless" stuff.

"This kind of box is exactly the twin birth gift I would have liked to receive," my girlfriend told me.

And frankly, I think it's the kind of personalized attention that makes all the difference.

The perfect decorative gift: the first year photo panel

Are you looking for a birth gift for twin girls or boys that's a bit different? Think about decorating .

I fell in love with one item: the customizable "My First Year" wooden photo board . For each child, there's a wooden board engraved with their first name, and 12 small frames to display a photo each month until they turn 1.

It is both:

- a great visual memory ,

- a soft and poetic decorative element ,

- and a great way to show that every child develops at their own pace .

Little tip: choose two different patterns (e.g. a boat for the boy, a flower for the girl) to show that they are united but unique .

Personalized twin gifts: let your heart speak

When you give a personalized twin birth gift , you show that you have really invested .

Here is a mini-list of personalized twin birth gift ideas that are a hit:

- Baby hairbrushes with engraved names (so cute after the bath)

- Night lights with their first names to light up their rooms at night.

And the magic is that you can create a unique theme for each duo , whether it's boy twins , girl twins , or mixed twin babies .

Tutorial: Create your own twin birth gift box

Want to do it yourself? Great! Here's my super simple tutorial:

- Choose an aesthetic container : a pretty printed kraft or wooden box

- Collects 2 practical and soft objects : baby brushes, diapers, pacifiers, etc.

- Add 2 personalized elements : engraved first name, embroidery or label

- Useful thinking : baby bottles for example because we know that parents will need plenty.

- Add a handwritten sweet note : it makes all the difference

- Wrap carefully , tie a linen or natural cotton ribbon

The result: a unique box, which shows that you put your heart into it.
