Adopting A Cabbage Patch Kid

Black Friday Chaos-1983

Mother Cabbage at Babyland General Hospital in Cleveland, Georgia could not deliver babies fast enough, to meet the Christmas demand.

Young and old children alike could not wait to adopt. Each kid came individually named, and properly dressed for their age. The diapered premies were swaddled, and the toddlers were dressed for nursery school.

In 1983 parents camped out at toy stores to beat the Black Friday early morning rush. Trying to cut the line did not go well. Line brawls were happening all over America.

These adorable Kids from the cabbage patch are still popular today. AT Babyland General Hospital one can apply to adopt and be present for the delivery. A new parent can be the first to dress their bundle of joy. At the end of the visit you are cordially escorted to discharge to settle the bill.
