I felt like a kid and liked it.

Some of you may have the list of your inaanaks already.  Some are just about done and some are already thinking of doing some pre-Christmas shopping.

I was at the Sunstar Mall this afternoon for a meeting with the manager of Pandayan Bookshop and he showed me around the store.

There were a lot of gift ideas and suggestions for this coming season.  I got interested with this boxed game above and since there was a sample, we opened the box because I wanted to see what's inside.  It was a simple puzzle made up of a few square pieces.  Because we both wanted to see the whole picture, we tried to do the puzzle together.  It was fun although I must admit that we took a little time to figure out which piece goes where.  I think this is a good brain exercise for the kids, and it will help them develop their logic just by playing.  I must admit that while putting the pieces together, I felt like a kid and liked it.

After finishing with the puzzle, this one caught my attention.

This should teach the kids to save at a very early age.  And you can get a pair for just the price of that much.  Not a bad idea for a gift I should say.  Because when I was a kid, I have always wanted to get one of those piggy banks, but never did.  I guess during those times, piggy banks come only in figurines and a little expensive.  And I noticed, nowadays, they call it coin banks.  Well, it's kinda awkward if we still call it a piggy bank.

If you are about to start buying Christmas gifts, I suggest you visit their store.  They have a lot of gift items that  might fit those that you are looking for for your inaanaks and friends.
