Here's a perfect present for 3 year old twins - a teeter totter from Tita Xenia and Rocco.
Watching the twinkies figure out how to use this contraption marked a huge shift in my personal understanding of being a mom-of-twins. Up to now, I've been trying to find the balance between them, when really what they need to do is learn how to balance each other. "You (two) are the twins, mama is not." That there must be some innate twin gene that will forever remain a mystery to us 'singletons'. To see them 'get it' is precious, but to hear their heart melting giggles while figuring it out is just priceless!!
