Can a mah jongg set skip a generation? Often. Many daughters swore off the game, then came back to their mothers' tiles, and some families now count four generations.
Start the next one early. This soft bodysuit carries the Big Joker for the new baby at a table of grandmothers, aunts and friends, a cheerful gift for a shower or a first visit, and a small promise of a seat someday.
Mah jongg has often been handed down from mothers to daughters, at bungalow colonies and in suburban homes. One family reports four generations of players, and a great-grandmother's set survives with her descendant. Museum curators have noted how many sets are still sitting in attics and closets.
The chain was never unbroken. Play had declined by the 1970s, and plenty of daughters wanted nothing to do with it. Then many came back, some into classes spanning three generations. In 2026 summer campers were learning it too. So this is a gift with a long horizon: the tiles can wait.
A 100 percent combed ring-spun cotton bodysuit in solid colors, with plastic snaps and a ribbed neckline, from newborn through 24 months. Wash cold, use non-chlorine bleach only as needed, tumble dry low, and do not iron. Heather contains some polyester. As with everything we make, profits support hunger relief.
