do you find .......

[superbagpuss]

that as a mum of twins or more that you shout instructions to your DC instead of going up to them

especially when they are in a play park or similar and running different ways

I also find they come when called because I cannot have them run in separate directions and so have taught them recall

also has anyone mastered the two hands to hold and carry things yet? I either get them to hold hands in a line or they hold onto my belt buckles .

One of mine was a bolter.

I found the only way to stay sane and get any shopping etc done when they were at the awkward 'too big for a buggy but not reliable in traffic' age was a set of clippasafe harness with dog leads firmly clipped on the back and looped over my wrist. Gives you hands-free for purse, keys, wiping snot, etc etc.
