Everyone loves baby shoes. They’re so tiny and adorable. So why not announce your twins by buying two pairs of baby shoes and setting them up somewhere that everyone can see them.

You do the math

This is a really cool way of announcing twins that I love. It’s another photo announcement, and pretty simple. Get your whole family together, and either use writing that already exists (whether you’ve written it or not) or add it afterwards, with the simple equation adding up all the members of your family. So if it’s just the two of you, and you’re having your first pair of twins, it’d be 1 + 1 = 4 Feel free to play around with this, especially if you’ve already got children.

Custom t-shirts

A t-shirt twin pregnancy announcement is really smart, especially if you’ve already got a child. Everyone will love seeing your eldest on instagram with a ‘I’m gonna be a big brother, to twins!’ shirt on. If you want it to be an even bigger surprise, gather up friends and family and let your little one wander round in their shirt, then just wait for the fireworks that come when someone finally notices!

Family photo shoots

Family photo shoots are awesome and traditional ways to announce new members, and they’re so easy to be creative and personal. Because you can do literally anything, it’s easy to take something else off of this list too, and get it immortalised forever by a professional. Plus, once you’ve got your photos, it’s so simple to post it to social media and let everyone know, straight away.

Pre-made twin pregnancy announcement cards

Another great tradition, and one that’s so simple but so appreciated. After all, sending someone a card through old style snail mail gives them something they can keep forever. You can anything with them too. Family photos. Copies of your twin ultrasound scan. Invites. Anything you want!

A twinny present for the family

This is kind of the same as the cards, just a little bit more involved. Make packages with your twin pregnancy announcement inside, and pack it full of things that are twin related. At the bottom, have the real twin announcement, so by the time your friends and family get to the bottom, they might suspect you’re having twins, but then they know for sure. You can add anything you want, as well. Ultrasound photos, invites, gifts. Whatever your mind can think up, you can add.
