Along these lines....on our first trip in 2/06, we took lots of different types of toys when we met Julia, who had just turned six years old. Crayons w/blank paper and coloring books; toy cars; Etch-A-Sketch; balls; dolls, etc. We wanted to gauge fine and gross motor skills. We left it all, of course.
Also take clothes in various sizes so you can figure out what to bring for him to wear home on trip #2. And a small notebook to trace his feet for shoes - we bought the size we thought would fit, plus one bigger and one smaller.
Read up on FAS and FAE, and have your IA doctor engaged before you travel. Take the measurements and photos they tell you to take, and upload them ASAP for evaluation.
Sleep with a blanket for a couple of weeks before you go, then ziploc it and leave it with the child.
Good luck! Let us hear from you!
