Just found this on the very wonderful ilSuL6ana's blog [link] about this uber-cute store in Muthanna Complex (and smaller shop in Shamiya Co-op). For people looking for fab Gergian clothes for their kids or for super adorable souvenirs for friends back home.

Gergian is a cute tradition that the Moslem kids love to participate in. Half way through Ramadan for two to three days you'll see kids dressed up in lovely colourful, Arabian-style outfits toting a bag around. The idea is to go to their neighbours and sing the Gergian song for them and in return they get sweets. Not too unlike Halloween.
