Enrichment is a gift for all children. Adopted children bring with them a cultural background that may differ from the adoptive family. Having a positive connection to their cultural roots enables adopted children to embrace all aspects of who they are, resulting in a more grounded sense of self. The interpersonal connections made and nourished between adopted children are a key factor in their development. In order to meet this need, African Cradle includes an array of fun and educational social events and camps. African Cradle events explore the rich heritage and cultural backgrounds that are an integral part of the adults that these children will become.
