Foster Care



From Carrie Craft, your Guide to Adoption
Lifebooks are so important to foster and adopted children. Here are a few articles to help in the creation of a lifebook for your child. For more on Adoption and Foster Care, visit Adoption.About.com.

It's Never too Early for Creating a Life Book
What is a lifebook? Somewhat like a scrapbook, a lifebook is a detailed outline of the child's life. It may include birth parent information, birth information, and any and all placements through the child's foster care or adoptive journey. Other page ideas could include: "Where I was born," "My Adoption Day," "My First Parents," "My Heritage," "Why I Came into Foster Care," or "My Dreams for the Future."

Best Ideas on How to Complete a Lifebook
Points to think about when helping a child create a lifebook.
