The holiday season can often be a
stressful time for foster & adoptive families. As support team members, one way to show extra support is to celebrate the family through thoughtful holiday gifts and activities! Gifts For the Family- Find fun & age-appropriate games the whole family can enjoy.
- Purchase a movie the whole family can enjoy!
Consider “Inside Out” as it’s a great resource for kids to better understand and conceptualize their feelings and emotions.
- Purchase annual zoo or museum passes and offer to schedule a few days throughout the year where you’ll be able to take them.
- Gift each child with an ornament customized with their name. Each time they look at the tree they’ll be able to see their ornament as part of the family tree.
- Offer to provide a family photo shoot and order individual prints for each of the children and a larger
print for the home.
- Host a parent’s night/weekend out. Order pizza, watch the kids, and give parents a night out and away from the busy household.
