[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] And another thing: boy, do I hate twin day. I had a "best friend" as a little girl, so it is not a bad association for me personally. But I despise the desperate scramble every time there is a twin day at school.

I don’t understand why twin day exists. For kids with a best buddy, they could dress the same whenever they wanted. For kids without one, it’s very stressful. Every year I’m like “why is this a thing? What does it have to do with school spirit?” I don’t get it.

My oldest is now a teenager. In all the years they had twin day, I think he participated once. I knew his friend had the same Minecraft sweatshirt and they wore the same shirt on twin day.[/quote]

The best response I ever saw to this was one year when another mom did an email blast to the whole class saying "twin day can make many of us feel left out. X (her daughter) will be wearing Y tomorrow and you are all welcome to join her in wearing Y too."[/quote]

Love this idea. NP here.  What is twin day and where did it origninate?  Never heard of it!  Is it just two kids pairing up and dressing alike? Why? [/quote]
