11. Baby Wishing Bank

It seems to be a tradition in our family that every baby receives a bank, usually in a form that matches the nursery decor, like my daughter received a Peter Rabbit bank. When looking for an appropriate poem to accompany the bank, don't forget to check our listing of adoption poems.

I think this adoption baby shower game is my personal favorite as it helps educate family and friends on adoption issues, all within the comfort level of the new adoptive parents and birth parents, in an open adoption.

13. Thank you!

Ask each guests to write their names and addresses on a Thank You card's envelope. These are then placed in a bowl for a door prize. The adoptive parents get the Thank You notes, and the guest gets the prize. What a wonderful way to help busy, new parents get organized and prepared to easily send thank you notes to each guest.
