I was just at a local toy shop in Boro Park.
The lady in front of me was in a serious conversation with the owner regarding his new Upsherin Registry.
It seems like this was going to be her second upsherin, and knew from experience that the amount of gifts her child receives is just overwhelming.
Crazy? I think so.
What do the experts think?

Other than that, it was the same as his first and second birthdays.
Oh, and more people came to the party.

February 17, 2012 1:53 am at 1:53 am #851845apushatayidParticipantAre you asking if the idea of such a registry is crazy?
The wording of the OP seems to imply that the overwhelming number of gifts is what might be crazy.

lol
apushatayid,
yes, so overwhelming indeed, that a registry where the child can pick out his gifts in advance is the only way to keep things in order.
