as long as i know, there is no cremation ceremony for 2 years old baby. Balinese people will doing this ceremony for adult, and for baby they usually doing burial ceremony. All the people - neighbor or family will come for their condolence, also help to prepare the burial ceremony. There is allot of "banten" /ritual offerings to be prepared. Women's and men's, togathers will prepared this ritual at home than finished at grave. Not just that, people will always come for their condolence at list until 3 days after.
For the first time, will be appreciated if you send some flower to his family. Or come to his village and donate for his family.
