New Twins Website entwined community Giveaway
Filed under: Contests and Giveaways, General Twins and Multiples Info, Resources for Twins and Multiples
Here is your chance to WIN a membership to a super cool NEW twins and multiples website! entwined community, founded by triplet mom Alicia Crowther, is the only place on the web where multiple birth families come together to support twin/multiples owned businesses.
There are hundreds of thousands of twins and higher order multiples born each year. What if each of us pledged to support our fellow multiple birth families by supporting their businesses? You’ve heard of “buy green” and “buy local” – now it’s time to “buy multiples”!
entwined community is your one-stop location to find local and online businesses that are owned by either twins/multiples themselves, or owned by the parents of multiples. Individuals get great members-only discounts on a wide variety of products, services, and gifts. For businesses, entwined community offers a great way to connect with new clients and customers that have pledged to support businesses with families just like theirs.
In addition to money saving opportunities, entwined community includes a monthly newsletter and BigTent membership group, where multiple birth families can come together to discuss how to start their own business, how to face the challenges of working out of the home, and more topics related to work and professional life. Although there are many sites and blogs related to twins and multiples, entwined community is the FIRST dedicated to supporting twin/multiples owned businesses.
entwined community is celebrating their launch this week, and to help kick off, they are sponsoring a giveaway of 10 individual memberships (regularly valued at $15/year) and 10 business memberships (regularly valued at $35/year). If you are a twin or multiple yourself, or the parent of multiples, enter to win a membership today!

What Are Your Favorite Twins Books?

If you enjoy chatting with other twin moms and dads about the latest books about twins, then I want to tell you about Double Up Books’ latest online book group, Twin Books Group at Twin-Pregnancy-and-Beyond’s community.
It’s going to be an exciting “book group” because it won’t be a typical book group where we pick a book of the month that we all read and discuss. Instead it is an open forum group where you can post messages and comments about your favorite books related to twin pregnancy, raising twins, and children’s books for twins.
As founder of Double Up Books, I always get asked the question “what are your favorite books about twins?” and while I love discussing which books are my favorites (which I will freely discuss on our group boards), this book group is really about what YOUR favorite and not so favorite books are. We’ll all learn from each other which books are the most helpful for being pregnant with and raising twins.
To join, just sign up for an online Twin-Pregnancy-and-Beyond’s community account. It’s free of charge and you’ll get to meet other moms (and dads too) of twins. Then, click over to groups to join and post which books are your favorites. It’s that easy. Check back in as often as you’d like to get more book recommendations or hear about the latest books.
Can’t wait to see you there!
