What’s on your Eid Shopping List?

I’ve been searching for some good (and educational) Eid gifts for my little neice and nephew. I stumbled upon this website….
http://www.desidollcompany.com/
http://onlineislamicstore.com/muslimdoll.html (For US buyers)
I thought these dolls were really cute! You have a choice of a bi-lingual doll or a Muslim doll. The bi-lingual dolls come with language cartridges, and the girl doll speaks many more languages than the boy doll. I thought it would be way cool to get my neice and nephew one that speaks Arabic.
The Muslim doll is a good choice too. The doll recites surahs and is loaded with Islamic manners!!! “Achooo….Alhumdulillah!!” How adorable is that? I have found the perfect Eid gift….but now which one do I get??!

This is a brilliant idea. I’m going to keep this in mind for the next Eid. Also such novel gifts would really add to a child’s pleasure, if he or she is rewarded for keeping their first fast, learning the last 10 suras, completing a juz….. the list goes on. Even their friends would be encouraged to strive to learn more. Grandparents often want to gift their grandchildren something but often are stuck for ideas. By forwarding this link you’d be giving creative ideas to desperate aunts, uncles, cousins and visitors. A toy that will surly be cherished for a long time. I’m surprised something of such great quality is out there and I’d love to gift it to my child. It’s gonna be our next wish list inshallah.
