[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can do whatever you and your daughter want, but if you do not want to invite the other twin, please do explicitly say that siblings/parents not allowed or something of that sort. I am a mom of twins and my kids usually go together as a package deal. Now I am worried I may have sent them to some parties where they were uninvited! :O [/quote]
Check who the invite was addressed to. “To Twin A” means just bring twin A. “To twin A and B” means both. “To Family of twins A and B” means all of you. You may find this surprising, but there are probably parents out there who don’t realize your child is a twin, so are ignorant to the “package deal”. We had a party in the fall for my 4th grader, and I didn’t realize his classmate was a twin until after the party. I don’t know the parents and the twin is in a different class. And I think you should assume no siblings unless it’s explicitly stated on the invite that siblings welcome, but that’s a whole other debate that has been covered ad nauseam on this forum! Regardless of whether you think people should state it on the invite, as a guest, it’s safer to assume no siblings unless stated. Most venues have a limit and if every kid invited brought 1-2 siblings, suddenly the guest count could balloon to 2-3x the original count. [/quote]
