[Chat] Some neat stores

[Stephen J Gewirtz]

There is also a really good store for baby clothing and some other items 
for babies called Raw Sugar (on the North side of Belvedere St.).  
Sometimes a bit pricey, but excellent quality stuff.  Having an 18 month 
old granddaughter, I am very glad that that store exists.

By the way, for kids 3 years and older, you can get some really nice 
jigsaw puzzle books (books of puzzles made from photos of art works in 
French museums) from www.amazon.fr , if you search for "art en puzzle".  
Let me know if you want some help with a web site in French or if you 
want to look at the puzzle books.  I first saw one in the museum store 
at one of the French art museums and got it for a niece who loved it.  
Since then, I got a set of 13 of them for about $100, but when I just 
checked the web site, you could only get some individual ones for 6.65 
euros each; also, since I got the batch of puzzle books to save them for 
when my granddaughter is older, the dollar has sunk more against the 
euro.  My favorite one is "Le cirque" (The Circus) with puzzles made 
from photos of paintings of the circus, but I do not see it listed on 
the amazon.fr web site.
