We are adopting a girl and a boy, & want to have a themed celebration. Any Suggestions?
|
We are having trouble picking out a theme or kind of party to have for them. My niece gave her children to us, she keeps having children to try and trap a man into a situation, when the man leaves her she gives her child(ren) away! It's sad and we don't speak anymore. But our adoption is almost final and we are trying to plan a party!

The little girl is 3 and the little boy is 17 months old!

Winnie the Pooh. Fyi..i gave up a baby to a great couple 4 yrs ago...:) i just wanted to say thank you to adoptive families who take such great care of the children :) BY the way...I wanted my son more than anything, thats why i chose to give birth to him and give him to people who can provide for him what i could not.. i dont ever want his parents saying I did not want him..that is the furthest from the truth |

I think Raggedy Ann and Andy would be perfect. The colors are nice and bright, and they represent a boy and a girl.
Have fun! And congratulations on your new son and daughter. |

A party I planned for my sister's twin's - boy and girl - was a pink & blue party. Clothes, decorations, as much food as we could find (pink lemonade, blue Hawaiian Punch, M&Ms, watermelon, blueberries, etc), pinatas, etc. were all pink and blue. Of course yours should have a welcome to the family or adoption birthday theme. (My sister-in-law is adopted and the family always celebrates her adoption birthday as well as her actual day of birth.) Good luck and enjoy your new additions! |

I would probably go with Dora or something...it would be good for the girl & the boy is too young to think that Dora is "girlish".
I think it's BEAUTIFUL that you're providing these children with the love and stability they need. |

Congratulations on your new babies! Why not just do a summer pool party/BBQ or luau since it is summer. Put the kids in little hawaiian shirts (they have little grass skirts at Target) and make fruity punch and pineapple treats. Put big cheesy flowers up and you can even let the 3 year old do some finger painting on the flowers. If you wanted to make it more of a kids theme, the Wiggles are great and they are not gender specific. You could play Top of the Tots and have everyone wear a Wiggles color. Enjoy your new little ones and have a great adoption day party! |

When we adopted our son we were told to go easy on loud noisy celebrations for a while by our social worker. Its a time for great loss for the child. However bad their home and parents were it was still the only home they knew. So it would be appropriate and compassionate to children and yes, their wicked, wicked mother who keeps having children, to scale down celebrations till everyone has had the chance to integrate. |

Hi,
I am a foster parent, and we are currently in the process of adopting one of our foster sons.
Also, he will be turning one, near the time that our 22 month old will be turning 2, so we are having a combo party.
We are making it a 'carnival' theme. We rented a moonbounce (we have a 5 1/2 year old as well) and we are looking into a clown type entertainer. We are also going to cookout.
If you are lucky enough to have good weather and a backyard, I think a cookout would be a good way to go. No mess inside, and people love to help out by bringing a dish- so it helps cut out on the expense. |

Seriously, did you really have to dump on your children's mother of origin in such a public venue when it's absolutely unrelated to the question of party themes?
As for the theme, maybe a luau theme since it's summer time. |
