suggesions

hello poornima,
this is sowmya,even i am frm b'lore, but i resently steped to Us.
i don't no whether i can stand to suggest u. still i am sharing my idea with u.
hope u will take this............
i think eatables r not a good idea taking frm here, because till how many days u will use this items?
i think this is the last shopping in us for ur new house in b'lore try to get some decorative items like beautiful door and window curtains which u will find here are very good metirial and design too.... i think weight is also less, this is the imp thing which u have to keep in mind while packing ie y i suggest u to take very imp things insted of buying food items frm here and one more thing how do u think buying of presious stones for ornaments......??like diamonds , emoralds.... frm here that again depends to u r interest.
have a great shopping time,

HI Sowmya!

Buying jewellery is a great idea. Curtains , am not sure as our house is still under construction and we dont know the sizes of doors etc. Its a great suggestion though! Thank u so very much!

Purnima
(ps- and i totally agree with you sowmya, insteadof buying food items, i might as well buy something else! saves space and money )

 

I was thinking Purnima,

Dear Purnima,
Hope you have done most of your shopping. I was thinking may be you could get some puzzles for your daughter[they come both in wood and cardboard]. Wooden puzzles are excellent for cleaning and sturdy too,but becomes bulky. My daughter who is two just loves them. I have not seen them in India. Just a suggestion.
Happy shopping.
bye,

 

I have already bought it anjana!

Last week we had gone to the childrens' museum. There they had all sorts of puzzles.I bought one of them. They are awesome! I think its a brilliant suggestion that you have given.Anjana, can u pls let me know other things that i can buy for kids-- i have a girl 21 months old. Could u suggest any ppuzzles, books ,games or anything else and also the brand/shop if u come to know? I still have a final weekend to shop, next weekend am leaving. So it would be great if you keep your thought pouring on this!

Thank you so very much anjana for your help! I feel truly blessed with so many people willing to help!!!

shop till you drop?

Hi Purnima,

Looks like you have made a good progress with your shopping. Do let us know what goodies you are carrying with you back home.
I thought Anjana's suggestion about toys for your little girl is a great idea. On the whole, I guess the toys you get here are of better quality and in wide choice to choose from. I also wanted to mention to you about the 'Baby Einstein' videos and cds. They are simply great and as the name suggests, a very constructive and entertaining play and learn accessories for kids. I don't think they are available in India, but you never know! Look into their web-site. My grandson is simply fascinated with their DVDs, flash cards etc. I am giving the link below.
