I'm traveling to Marrakesh with my sister-in-law, we will be staying with her family. She says that I don't

have to bring a gift for her family but I feel I should bring something to say thank you, as they will be basically taking care of us the whole time! We will be staying with her sister some nights and her brother some nights. They both have children. Does anyone know what would be an appropriate gift?
She said to bring candy for the children but I would like to bring something for her brother and sister as well.

Morrocans are very big on gifts. They say you don't need to give anything but then they give and give, lol. Last time I went I brought t-shirts with "Canada" on it. I also brought some of the traditional native arts of Canada and everybody loved it. Maybe you can look in you local gift shops and find something they will find exotic.

Candy for the kids AND the adults is a great idea. I brought Hershey's kisses and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups with me and everyone loved them. Maple Syrup is loved by everyone as well. I also took bath & Body Works items, some clothes, some hand made jewelry and toys like Matchbox Cars.

terry g hit the mark I have never seen the match box cars...maple syrup I havnt seen at all and malt is another honey is here but pretty expensive like the pure honey but panckes and maple syrup sound good really its not even at majane....I dont really like there jams either....some homemade jams could be nice also...maybe some story books you cant buy any english story books at all.....and I havnt seen any dress up clothes at the shopping centre either you know the ones like batman and princess things....anyway good luck oh another those funny masks with the elastic havnt seen any of them either I just think things maybe that they dont have here different and also chutneys and chilli sauce I havnt seen....

Something which is typical of your country

I assume they are muslims? Its forbidden for a muslim/christian or jewish man to sit with another mans wife....you cannot stay with them if there is Any chance he will see u uncovered or be even for a moment alone with you.

bye :)

You must be indulgent with gifts. Definately go more expensive than candy. Good toys don't exist in Morocco except at high prices. Some luxury items for ladies, perfume (doesn't have to be designer), creams, gloves. Don't get stuff that they have to be able to read the labels to know what they are. If you get shampoo, showergel and body lotion it will be hard for them to know which is which. If you are travelling from the US you have plenty of luggage allowance. I would aim to spend approximately the amount you think it will cost to feed you for the duration of your stay.

Have a great time. P.S. For yourself you'll need some toilet paper as they usually don't have any in homes or public restrooms!

Honestly the woman love Clinique make up/ skin care.

My husband is Morocan and when we visit we bring Clinique, CASH, Pictures, SILVER Jewelry ( better to be purchased there) Silver is extremely CHEAp in that country. Toys for the Children.. Clothes for the Children. Kiss them as soon as you arrive. Eat and drink tea even if you are full.

have fun it is so awsome there, bring a empty suit case with you
