I have a question about sharing and fighting over toys

I have a 2 and 1/2 year old girl and I babysit for another girl who is almost 3. It's been about 6 months now that I watch her 3 days a week. But everyday they fight one wants one toy or the other will grab a toy from ones hand and one starts screaming and I try to say lets share, she can have a turn for two minutes and then it's your turn, but that won't work, or I redirect and give one another toy to play with and she doesn't want it. Sometime I will ignore the negative behavior and after a while one will stop the whining. but it is a fight daily. Any other suggestions that you have? They both are only childs so could that be why they have a hard time sharing? How do your children that have siblings handle certain issues as such. Any ideas would help. It makes for a long 3 days!! Hope fully this florida weather cools down soon so we can spend more time oudoors, they love the play and get alone well outside, Thanks for listening!

When you go to the toystore, just buy two of everything. problem solved.
