This is new for me! My twins have always gone to nursery and pre-school at the same time although we've tried to give them individual time as much as possible when we're both at home.
My girls have just turned 3. There is a ballet class starting on Saturdays close to us. The thought of taking both of them doesn't appeal - they are going through a phase of fighting loads, they are potty trained but still need prompting to ask to go to the loo and when they are together if one of them gets clingy the other one does.
One of my girls loves dancing, is much more confident and I think would flourish much better at the class on her own. I'm 25 weeks pregnant and I think I'd find it easier to take one and just relax and keep an eye on her from the kitchen (where the mums generally wait and drink tea apparently as the class is only half an hour).
But I feel bad about my other DD. She is a lot more shy, gives up a lot more easily and I feel like I'm not giving her the chance to do this, like I'm not being fair.
Which is stupid in a way because its a ballet class for three year olds, it's not like I'm only agreeing to fund one through university and not the other!
I think I need someone to tell me its okay and that it won't be really unfair of me to not give her the chance. I could take just the more shy DD, but that would seem really unfair on the more confident one who loves to dance...
Please help me stop rambling and decide!
