About Children’s wooden toy from Paraguay

This is exactly the sort of thing I like bringing back from Paraguay: small enough to fit in a bag, but specific enough to remind you where you bought it. A simple toy works well if it reflects local craft or characters and is not too fragile. I would look for it in a proper local supermarket, covered market, deli, pharmacy, gift shop or small producer rather than leaving it until the departure gate. Back in the UK, it is worth checking specialist shops first because they often stock a better version than a broad marketplace listing. It is also the kind of thing you can talk about when someone asks what you brought back, because there is usually a little story attached to where you found it.
