I am thinking of crayons to take out this time. Has anyone else done this? I know we would have to be very selective where we gave them out as I wouldn't risk being followed round by loads of children
taking gifts out to Bali

when on our travels round the island last year we wished we had thought of taking small presents out with us. We met a couple of inquisitive little boys who were helping their dad out in his field. They were dying for us to take their photo and loved seeing the result.

Hi Fiona
You might like to check our Filo's site. There is a section on oleh-oleh (gifts)
Filo is a member of a Bali travel forum that I belong to. He's a retired teacher from Adelaide and now does a lot of work for some orphanages in Bali. He's had a lot of us sewing toiletry bags (everyone was individual) in most cases these bags were the only thing a child had of their own. He then delivered them... any excuse to go to Bali.
The question of prezzies for kids is often discussed. A lot of Aussie take small clip on kangaroos and koalas bought from at the $2 shop.

Just over 5 weeks before we go
