Question
Since the blessing of 'Shehechiyanu' on Purim day also applies to other commandments of the day such as Mishloach Manot and Matanot La'evyonim, is there a reason to connect Matanot La'evyonim and Mishloach Manot to the reading of the Megillah so that the blessing applies to them?
Answer
Yes, and the zealous perform the commandments early.
