Although most Armenians don’t give gifts on Easter, here is a tip what to do if you are Armenian and want to give a gift for this year’s Zatik, or Easter in English.  If you have nobody to give a gift too, Blogian is, as always, here to help.

I wrote last year about praying Armenian toys.  After I ended getting one, I was convinced that this would be a wonderful religous gift.  Although we were confused about our praying toy when we saw it the first time, now my Mom loves our hippo that cites a short cute prayer in western Armenian.  It prays for parents with such a cute articulation that will give you chills.  You can order it (and actually listen to the prayer) at http://hyemedznank.com/pages/animals.asp for $20.00.  There are other gifts on that website too, but I think hippo is far the best.
