Yep. It is tradition (and good luck) to give an envelope with money.
A gift for the baby also is also nice of course. Remember they don't use the bonds type suits that Aussies love.
The family would also appreciate gifts of food as they have many visitors and need to provide food for the visitors. A food parcel of tea, coffee etc would be much appreciated.
As Balimagic said also, mum likes some personal things.
Just some ideas but really anything is appreciated.
Soo exciting. What a great bonus to your holiday. My stepdaughter is pregnant and I just watched the ultrasound. Feisty little thing even though it's only 4cm long. Reminds me I must go back to Bali to buy baby clothes. Might see you there in Jan. LOL
