Answer
Hats of to you on your thought to send the toys to the poor. Greatly appreciate the gesture.
I would suggest sea mail would be the best option for you.
Experience of one of the persons that sent thru Sea Mail-
1. Keep boxes < 30 lb.
2. put books in garbage (plastic) bags or some kind of transperant plastc wrapper to hold things together if cardboard tears.
3. Use sturdy boxes.
4. Write source and destiniation addresses in several places on boxes.
5. Note that box will be opened by customs in Mumbai.
6. Average time - 10 weeks.

Answer
hahhaha i read this. some of them are wrong, lloll, which takes away from the funniness, but its' still cute. like for "paper" it would be "peh-paar" not "fefar". hahaha. here's a funny one too:
A is for Aapish (Office). This is where the average Kolkatan goes and
spends a day hard(ly) at work. If he is in the Government he will arrive
at 10, wipe his forehead till 11, have a tea break at 12, throw around a
few files at 12.30, break for lunch at 1, smoke an unfiltered cigarette
at 2, break for tea at 3, sleep sitting down at 4 and go home at 5. It's
a hard life!
B is for Boka. Meaning phool or eedeeot, often used with an abusive
rhyming attachment which means an absolute phool or eedeeot.
C is for Chappell. This is the Bengali word for the Devil, for the worst
form of evil. In the night mothers put their kids to sleep saying 'go to
bed, or Chappell will come and take you away.'
D is for Debashish. By an ancient law every fourth Bengali Child has to
be named Debashish. So you have a Debashish everywhere and trying to get
creative they are also called Deb, Debu, Deba with variations like
Debnath and Deboprotim thrown in.
E is for Eeesh. This is a very common Bengali exclamation made famous by
Aishwarya Rai in the movie Devdas. It is estimated that on an average a
Bengali uses eeesh 10,089 times every year. (That's counting eeesh and
other eeesh-ish words).
F is for Pheesh. These are creatures that swim in rivers and seas and
are a favourite food of the Bengalis. Despite the fact that a fish
market has such strong smells, with one sniff a Bengali knows if a fish
is all right. If not, he will say 'eeesh, what pheeesh is theeesh!'
G is for Good name. Every Bengali Boy will have a good name like
Debashish or Deboprotim and a pet name like Shontuda, Choti, Poka and
Dinku. While every Bengali Girl will be Paromita or Protima as well as
Shampa, Champa and Buri. Basically your nickname is there to kill your
good name.
H is for Harmonium. The Bengali equivalent of a rock guitar. Take four
Bengalis and a Harmonium and you have the successors to The Bheatles!
I is for lleesh. This is a pheeesh with 10,000 bones which would kill
any ordinary person, but which the Bengalis eat with releeesh!
J is for Jaamaaibabu or Jhaamelaa or Jhola. No self respecting Bengali
is complete without his Jhola. It is a shapeless cloth bag where he
keeps all his belongings and he fits an amazing number of things in.
Even as you read this there are 2 million jholas bobbling around
Kolkata- and they all look exactly the same!
K is for Kee Kaando. It used to be the favourite Bengali exclamation
till eeesh took over because of Aishwarya Rai (now Kee Kaando's agent is
trying to hire Bipasha Basu).
L is for Ludo or Lungi. People in Kolkata manage to play football and
cricket wearing it. Now there is talk of a lungi expedition to Mt.
Everest. That is when they are not playing Ludo on the "roK"
M is for Minibus. These are dangerous half buses whose antics would
effortlessly frighten the living daylights out of Formula 1 race
drivers.
N is for Nangtoe. This is the Bengali word for Naked. It is the most
interesting naked word in any language!
O is for Oil. The Bengalis believe that a touch of mustard oil will cure
anything from cold (oil in the nose), to earache (oil in the ear), to
cough (oil on the throat) to piles (oil you know where!)
P is for Potol and Pantua - the must haves on all Bong meals.
Q is for Queen. This really has nothing to do with the Bengalis or
Kolkata, but it's the only Q word I could think of at this moment.
There's also Quilt but they never use them in Kolkata.
R is for Robi Thakur. Many years ago Rabindranath got the Nobel Prize.
This allows everyone in Kolkata to frame their acceptance speeches and
walk with their head held high and look down at Delhi and Mumbai! R used
to be for "Rok (rock)-bazi" - the quintessential place for sitting and
watching the street idling away till a few years back.
S is for Shala: Wife's brother or the most publicly used swear word in
Kolkata.
T is for Trams. Hundred years later there are still trams in Kolkata. Of
course if you are in a hurry it's faster to walk.
U is for Ambrela. When a Bengali baby is born they are handed one.
V is for Violence. Bengalis are the most non-violent violent people
around. When an accident happens they will shout and scream and curse
and abuse, but the last time someone actually hit someone was in 1979.
W is for Water. For three months of the year the city is under water and
every year for the last 200 years the authorities are taken by surprise
by this!
X is for X mas. It's very big in Kolkata, with Park Street fully lit up.
Y is for Yestaarday. Which is always better than today for a Bengali.
Z is for Jeebra, Joo, Jip and Jylophone.
hahahahahahaha do i get best answer?
