Personalized books for donor conceived kids
At Paper Hug Press, we create editable children's book templates designed for Single Moms by Choice (SMBCs) and LGBTQ+ parents of donor-conceived kids.
​​​
Our inclusive, child-centered storybook templates help families explain genetics, share details about their sperm donor or egg donor, and tell the story of their child's beginning with honesty, warmth, and love.
How it works
1) Download
When you make a purchase, you'll receive an instant digital download. Open your PDF and follow the link to your Canva template. Canva is free and easy to use—no design experience required. All you need is an account to get started!
2) Customize
Our templates include 20+ beautifully designed, fully customizable pages. Throughout the template, you'll be prompted to add family photos, information about your donor(s), and the special details that make your child's story unique.​
3) Print
You're ready to print! You can print your book with just a few clicks through Canva, or download the pages as PNG files and upload them to any online print shop of your choice. For best results, we recommend printing at 8 in. x 8 in. or 10 in. x 10 in.
Need help?
We want your book to feel just right. If you have any questions about our templates, or if you've purchased one and need help customizing pages or adjusting wording to better fit your family's story, we are happy to help! Just send us a note on Etsy.
We truly hope your child will love reading their custom donor conception storybook again and again. Sharing your child's story early and often can build trust, open pathways to communication, and instill pride in your family's unique origin story.
