But did you know that Twitter can not only help you connect with others and share with the world what you are up to in 140 characters or less, but that you can use it to actually save money and keep up with the latest trends, product tips, product recalls and much more?

Sometimes companies will announce Twitter specific deals, release coupons that only their followers can take advantage of, they will announce sales, give sneak peeks at deals or new movie releases and even ask for the input of their followers for different things they are working on.

Here are just some of the companies that either make baby, toddler or family friendly items or sell those type of items that you might want to follow on Twitter. That way you can keep up to date on the latest deals and so much more…

Baby and toddler companies and stores that carry stuff for little ones are joining Twitter practically every day. As I stumbled across new ones, I will update this list from time to time, probably weekly at first. Also, if you know of a great one that I should add to the list leave a comment or drop me a line.
