    Books...you really can never have enough!  Search for adoption related books for children on amazon and you will find several cute book.  I like the Marianne Richmond book a lot. 

    We got a teether type book (Baby Einstein) that you can put photos in and DD seems to like that a lot.  We flip through the pages and tell her the family members and pets names.

    I also think some of the pillowcase type dresses w/ little one's initial or name are just the cutest too.  You'll find TONS of options on etsy:)

    I think anything with the child's name on it is nice.  I also agree that books are wonderful gifts :)

    Did you check to see if they have a registry? Many adoptive parents do!

    Beyond that, something that can make memories might be nice - scrapbook stuff related to adoption would be great! (IMHO)

    I agree with one of the previous posters.  Children's books about adoption are a great gift...(still looking for a good one for our daughter.)  One of our favourite gifts we received at a shower was a gift certificate for family photos.
