Twins moms these days are so very busy, but we’re more stressed than ever before and in need of lifestyle choices that help us be happier. Pursuing a hobby for a very busy twins Mom may be just the thing.

Here are a few reasons why a hobby is a great idea, even for a busy Mom of twins.

Having a hobby for twins Mom relieves stress and tension
Spending time with a hobby replaces negative thoughts and replaces them with positive thoughts and feelings. Having a new hobby or productive outlet can elevate your mood and help with depression.
Not like passive activities like TV watching, a hobby provides intellectual stimulation while simultaneously relaxing you. For example, a repetitive actions like those used in knitting are very calming for twins Mom.

Hobbies help you twins parent better
We are so good at signing our twins up for lessons and classes and encouraging them to have hobbies, even paying for these classes and driving the twins to and from! But a mother for baby twins often forget that we also need to learn new things and grow as people. Hobbies will also connect you with other parents and even other twin mom who share your interests.
A hobby can help you maintain your separate identity as a real person and not just as Mom of twins. This models healthy habits and boundaries for our twins.

Hobbies provide a refreshing change from your daily twins routine
If you’re a stay at home twins Mom, you could find yourself be frustrated because at the end of the day of caring for your twins you can hardly point to anything you’ve really “done”. This is because of the repetitive nature of housework and twins care. That we all know take so much time.
Long time ago, mothers pursued hobbies like sewing, knitting, quilting, crochet and embroidery not only because they were enjoyable but because they provided tangible value to the twins family, either providing clothing for their twins backs or extra essential revenue.
Some hobbies like gardening, tennis or belly dancing can even provide great exercise with all of its accompanying benefits. The best hobby will be a one that combines body and mind and is enjoyable to persist.
Why not carve out some time to chase your new hobby? Don’t let a lack of time prevent you. Rearrange your schedule and put YOURSELF back in it, and start carving out time for your favorite pastime.
