Your children may be reaching the age where they need a sense of their own beginnings. For this reason, we are offering families an opportunity to return to China and to the orphanage where their family stories began.
You can help your children see China through the eyes of confident sons and daughters. Together you can hear the sounds and smell the aromas that are part of your child's earliest memories. Together you can explore the connection between past and present.
Visit the Forbidden City and walk on the Great Wall together. Ride the overnight train to Xian to see the terra cotta warriors. Hug a panda and take lots of pictures as you continue to make multi-cultural memories as a family.
Help care for babies at the CHI Hope Center. Your children can see how they were cared for as they waited for your loving arms. Your child will offer hope to those children who still wait. The Hope Center children will offer a solid sense of origin to your child.
Visit the capital city where you first met your child. Talk about your joy in adopting her as you stay in the hotel where you were first united. Let your child share her impressions as you visit the site where she was found.
As with your adoption trip, your family will travel with CHI staff as trusted guides. All in-country travel and hotels will be arranged for you. You need only arrange your international flight to China and home again. Once you arrive, you can relax and focus on your family's enjoyment. |
