Our twins are almost 5 (in preschool) and beginning to enter the world of playdates. They are in separate classes but a small school so they see eachother all day and share many of the same friends. I think some playdates are not being reciprocated because parents are hesitant to have two kids over to play with their one child. I have an older third child so having an extra kid in the mix doesnt feel like a big deal to me. I get that if you are used to one kid or two kids adding two more preschoolers to your mix for a few hours might feel like alot, but still feel bad that my kids aren't being invited to other kids houses. The playdates at our house go well, the visiting child seems to have fun and i get along well with the parents. Is this par for the course? Should I mention to other parents that my kids don't need to be invited over together?

Any experience with this? I would love to hear from parents who have dealt with this! Thanks!
