We asked a group of friends to suggest the best idea for a special christening present. These were some of the most thoughtful suggestions guaranteed to provide you with the best baby baptism gift.
Suggestions for suitable baby baptism gifts:
- If you are thinking of a special christening present to give to the baby, I would suggest a children's bible. It is never too early to start reading to your child! :) There are many children’s bibles out there and they are all short, easy to read with lots of pictures, which will be great later on when the child starts reading.
- A little keepsake box is the perfect baptism gift. The parents can put important trinkets in it while their child is a baby and as the child grows up, he or she will enjoy saving important mementos as well.
- I-Bonds @ treasury.gov. These are inflation protected government bonds that make sure money put in at a child's birth will maintain its value over time. You might also consider setting up a college fund or a 529 fund that can grow and be contributed to for future birthday gifts.
- A special christening present that will be remembered and treasured for years is a personalized double picture frame (place a picture and the child's baptism program in the frame)
- A crucifix or cross in gold or sterling silver is always a good christening gift, especially if they are engraved with the date of the christening.
The next time you get invited to a christening hopefully you will find that these suggestions for the perfect special christening present will help you.
