Our neighbors from India are expecting a baby. Are there any traditional Indian baby gifts? With being so far away from their families, they are feeling homesick. I would like to give them a gift that reminds them from home. I would rather not ask them because I want to surprise them.
Answer
If its still some time in delivery, you can give some good traditional Indian mythological books for the mom-to-be to read.
For kid: You can gift a silver spoon/bowl (small size...as if its just meant for kid) along with a silver idol of diety such as Ganesh/Krishna. You can also gift engraved sterling silver baby cups, dumbell rattles, feeding spoons, and loop spoons or select a silverplated Lunt Piggy bank, engraved.
One more thing: In India, traditionally people don't buy cloths before birth , reason being first let God give Kid, and then only we should be making preperations for him/her. (though things are changing now).
I am really touched by the way you are thinking for the gift......

What should I buy for my mom?
remo
Hi I am from India and living in US. I am returning back to India and I want to buy something useful for my mom, please suggest me any items. the price range is from <=$125.
Answer
What does she like that is more readily available in the US than India? Would she like a very good handbag? Would she prefer a kitchen appliance? How about a nice watch? I'm sure having you return to India will be the best gift you can give her no matter what you bring.
