Baby Christening Ideas

A baby christening is a special occasion to welcome a new baby to the world and to introduce him or her to his new family.

For many, a baby christening is an initiation into the Christian faith.

Christenings can take place as a special service or as part of a regular Sunday
service.  It is usual to invite close friends and family.  Some parents choose
godparents - people who will have a role in supporting in bringing your child up
to have an understanding of the Christian faith.

Baby Christening Speech

If you have been asked to give a short speech , you may wish to use a prayer or poem. A selection of poems and prayers about babies can be found at the
Poem4Today website.

For more ideas for a christening speech, the Occasional Words website is a
great resource.

Baby Christening Gifts, What Makes a Great Christening or Baptism Gift?

So, you’re wondering what would be the perfect baby christening or baptism gift for a baby since you’ve been invited to celebrate this precious spiritual occasion.

If you are like me, you are looking for that perfect, unique baptism or christening gift idea that will put a smile on the faces of the parents as they open it. It’s always so rewarding when you see how genuinely delighted the person is with your gift. It’s make you feel good that you chose something they really love.

Since a baby’s christening or baptism is such a special event, you might want to consider giving a gift that will become a treasured memory of this celebration for years to come. A personalized christening or baptism gift is a great choice since it will be engraved with the baby's name and the date. This is a terrific way for the baby to always remember their baptismal day when he or she officially became a member of God's family.

Here is a list of just some of the wonderful baptism and christening gift ideas
available that will create a lifetime keepsake for the baby.

Engraved Picture Frame – Provides a great way to display a favorite photo of
the baby in their baptism or christening outfit on their special day.

Cross Necklace Gift – A baby’s first cross necklace will complement any outfit on
their baptism or christening day and can become a treasured family heirloom for
future generations. Presented in a personalized keepsake box will make it even
more of a memento.

Children’s Bible – What a great way for the child to learn Bible stories
especially when the illustrations are meant to appeal to children. Some versions
can even be personalized on the front cover and are packaged as a keepsake.

Cross Plaque – Hanging on the child’s bedroom wall, it’s the perfect reminder
that they are a member of God’s family. Many varieties are available including
porcelain and wood. A cross might show a boy or girl praying or it might display
a prayer along with the child’s name.

Personalized Photo Album Idea – Provides a terrific way to showcase all the
cherished photos from this special occasion.

Embroidered Baptism Afghan – Throws are quite popular these days so why
not give one that is personalized and commemorates the baby’s baptism day.

Prayer Teddy Bear Gift - A truly unique stuffed animal from which the child can
learn the prayer it recites.

Giving a keepsake christening or baptism gift is a wonderful way to honor the
memory of this special Christian celebration as the child grows, both physically
and spiritually.
