New! Twin Birth Process Time Line (words)

8/11/2016

0 Comments

 
​Twin Birth Process Time Line (in words) - pdf
A card sort for twin-parents-to-be to explore possible time line of a vaginal twin birth. 
Cards are separated into three categories:
  1. what happens to mum
  2. what happens to twin 1
  3. what happens to twin 2
The facilitator can either print these on different colour card or paper (A4) or ask parents-to-be sort them by the pictures (mum, baby brown-ish, baby purple) on the cards. 
The activity will create one time line in words but is also shows what happens when to each person involved. This activity can be used in big or small groups and is also great for 1-2-1 sessions. 
The activity can be used on it's own or alongside one of my graphic labour time lines (print-your-own pdf or banner).

£1.50 print-your-own pdf.
