    You get a 2$ plastic toy microphone at Target which proved to be good to take to india. It works by Acoustics and needs no batteries.

    Also in dollar stores you get these suction balls and 2 paddles to catch the balls. That turned out to be good as well.

    Walmart contains some nice toothbrush sets and kids glasses. Also novelties like bath finger painting and various bubble bath kids solutions. (Although bubble baths in India are a luxury. 🙂 ).

    Corn Nuts in Costco have been liked by many in India and so have “Aussie bites” which Dimple markets as “American Monthar” to relatives in India. 🙂
