 A favorite of our family is the 5 inch solid brass Baptism Cross containing an image of baptism along with the words of the essential rite. It is a great gift to the parents of the child being baptized, affirming the commitment and statement of faithfulness they make on that day.
For the child being baptized, we love the guardian angel bears in brown or white. They are plush, soft and contain a hidden music box that plays "Jesus loves me" when you wind up the tail
Another traditional gift is something to help preserve and celebrate this special day. Check out our selection of Frames and Photo Albums for an items of this nature.
Also you might enjoy a Silver Baptismal Medal. It is a great way to preserve and celebrate the memory of the moment. In the line of Jewelry we offer our Sacramental Charm Bracelets are a wonderful way to add new memories as children grow in their life of faith.
 Gifts for Godparents are often overlooked. We are delighted to offer items for both a single godparent or a couple that act as godparents.
