Baptism Gifts with Meaning

Baptism gifts usually represent the spiritual theme of this momentous occasion. One of the most familiar religious symbols is the cross. So what better way to symbolize a baptism than by giving a gift that displays the holy cross.

Here are some baptism gifts that can display the cross symbol and create a perfect remembrance.

Cross Wall Plaque – a day-to-day reminder as they grow of their being a member of God’s family. Some designs even have a special prayer printed on them for the child to recite.

Embroidered Afghan or Blanket – a lasting memento that is stitched with the baby’s name along with their baptismal date.

Child Bible – this baptism gift is the perfect way to introduce Bible stories to a child with special illustrations that appeal uniquely to children. Some designs may allow for personalization.

Engraved Photo Album – a wonderful keepsake with an engravable front cover design to hold all the cherished photos of their special day for years to come.

Customized Picture Frame – a custom-made way to display a cherished photo from their baptism.

Cross Necklace or Bracelet – infant-sized jewelry will complement any baptismal outfit and will also be a great heirloom piece to pass down to future generations.

First Rosary and Keepsake Case – both are baptism gifts that will be inspiring souvenirs of the child's baptism day.

Musical Bear or Lamb – a plush bear or lamb can commemorate this special occasion for years to come by having special words or a cross embroidered on it. In some cases, it may even be musical and play a favorite children’s song such as ‘Jesus Loves Me’ which can teach the child to sing along with the words.

As you can see, there are many baptism gifts that not only symbolize but will also create lasting memories of this once-in-a-lifetime Christian celebration. Since they are only a baby, they will appreciate the keepsake gifts as they grow both physically and spiritually.
