ADOPTING AFRICAN CHILDREN
|
Each country within Africa, has a culture separate from any other that you will experience. When it comes to traveling to any country within Africa, you the adoptive parent should become well aware of where your child comes from. What language do they speak? What type of foods do they eat? What type of weather do they live in? All these questions should be asked by you. These and other questions, will help you to enjoy your trip and also to pickup and maintain the child's heritage. The sights and smells and the feel of the country will come later when you arrive. In the meantime you will need to know what to take with you on your journey to that far away place where your child is dwelling. You will also need to prepare for the climate that you will stay in for the length of the overseas adoption. I have provided for you links for this as well on the Resourceful tab on this site. Below I have comprised a small list of items that you should consider when planning to travel to pickup your adoptive daughter or son. Adoptive Parent List

Last but not least always think necessities over preferences......you will not over pack when it comes to bringing your child the gifts that you have so thoughtfully acquired. |
