Parenting can be challenging and families using assisted reproduction can feel pressured to talk to children about the “birds and the bees” – sometimes way earlier than we would otherwise have done.

If struggling to find the words sounds familiar to you, our friends at at Sensitive Matters have a solution (check out their website here).

Sensitive Matters have created “The Magic of You”, a customisable children’s book that features your family and explains your child’s unique donor-conception and/or surrogacy story.

Each book is super quick and easy to make and there are two versions to choose from: a photobook version or avatar version. Parents can customise any of the words or layouts, and add or delete photos or pages so that everything inside the book is absolutely your story.

The Magic of You was created by Sali Odendaal from Sensitive Matters. Sali couldn’t find a book for her son that she could personalise for her specific story . . . so she made her own. Everyone’s conception story is unique – so Sali filled the gap it the market. Whatever your family situation, “The Magic of You” customisable storybooks for children allow you to capture your unique story.
