I have found that younger children really benefit from short stories with pictures that tell what is about to happen. Include photos from their time with you, include photos of the family they will be transitioning to as well as photos of where they will be sleeping, eating, playing, etc. It would be great if you could make an additional book for your AD. It will help her to process what is going to happen in a more concrete way. Hope this helps!
Setting up playdates or other times for the kids to get together after the transition is also ideal and helps them to know that the people they care about don't just disappear.
