We have some lovely young Polish friends here in the UK.

One of the couples has just had a lovely baby girl and we are going to see them at the week-end.

I would love to take a Polish type of gift to try to make them feel less far away from home.

I have a gift for the baby - some baby clothes.
What would you suggest as a present for the parents?

Is there any restrictions or 'no-no's' in the colour of flowers - red and white perhaps or does that (as in other cultures, signify death? - that would be a BIG mistake!).

Any suggestions gratefully received. Plus a greeting in Polish for me to write in the card would be wonderful.

Thank you so much.
