baby gift idea for a couple from India?

baby gift ideas
leigh asked:


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.

    The right place way to feed their children you go dear.
    The baby indians use silver utensils to go dear.

    SP is right, some silver plates (plated) with the necessary accessories.

    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……
