For twins? Make two matching diaper animals or a shared diaper cake with personalized touches. You'll find further ideas for twins and details below.

Baby Gift Ideas For Twin Boys
Double the fun! Here are some thoughtful and practical baby boy gifts and gift ideas for twins:
- Twin-themed diaper cakes or matching diaper animals: For a baby you need lots of diapers, for twin babies you need even more diapers. So a gift certificate for diapers is a very practical baby gift for twin boys - or, if you want it more personal, make a diaper cake yourself, or even two. You will find links to various diaper gift instructions further up that page.
- Gift baskets with double the essentials: Alternatively, give a baby boy gift basket with lots of useful baby supplies mommy can stock up on. A baby boy gift basket also is a cute idea for twins since you can include both fun and practical things which the new twin parents will certainly be in need of.
- Personalized twin bodysuits: If you are into twin clothing have a look at my personalized "Two miracles instead of one" twin boy bodysuits. There are also very cute twin boys gift sets available consisting of two boy onesies with funny slogans. For example "he did it / he did it", "I was planned / I was a surprise", "feed me first / feed me first", "I rock / I roll", "Thing 1 and Thing 2" by Dr. Seuss and many more.
- Twin-themed keepsakes and books.
Of course you can also choose any of my baby gift ideas for twins, just take the boy version or boy color(s) wherever possible.
Last but not least, personalized baby gifts for boys such as for example personalized onesies, T-shirts, blankets, pacifiers, etc. always are a good idea, especially for twins.
