I have twins after having had a singleton.
My first child used to love sitting down on my knee and we had story time before morning and lunchtime nap and also one before bed. This was established at an early age - as you do when you've got your hands free more!
My twins are nearly a year old and very sporadically have stories read to them. I want to have that experience of reading to them and them also associating it with a lovely nap/bedtime like with my first.
He just used to hear the first few words of one particular book and then start yawning as the routine was so settled.
I try and read to them individually, but then the other gets upset. Or have tried both on my knee which is a nightmare to juggle as I am on my own during the day. Inevitably one sits still and takes up more room so the other gets bored and crawls away.
Is there anyone out there who manages this and if so, how?!?!
