Gifts for Adopted and Foster Children
present for adopted and foster kids

As Intentional Parents, it is important that we meet our kids right where they are at...even at gift-giving times. I put together some of my top picks for gifts for Christmas or Birthdays to share with you! These are things my kids LOVED and are now used by many of my clients. 

I hope you and your child(ren) enjoy them as much as we have!    


Telestrations is a game that finally worked for our whole family! No Cheating Needed!

​Super Magnets is a nice set that helps give positive feed back to the Proprioseptive Sensory System.

Snap Circuits was loved by all of my kiddos, girls & boys alike. It really helped to work on acquiring Agency - the realization that I can have positive impact on the world!

​Smencils are a great stocking stuffer. They are a positive sensory input in times of anxiety!
