I'm participating in an exchange program, and I'll be living with my host-mother when it's her birthday. Is there anything special I should know about regarding what children get their mothers in Ecuador for their birthday?

  1. Based on experiences attending language schools and staying with host families in several Latin American countries, most recently in Quito last January, an appropriate gift would be the same as a gift to your mother here--flowers, candy, a small piece of jewelry or a simple clothing item like a scarf. Or you could treat her to a meal at one of the many good restaurants in Ecuador. We have always brought some interesting North American food items to give to our host families--maple syrup and pancake mix, for whatever reason, seems to be a favorite.
