I'm planning to hit the mall tomorrow, so I'll let you know what I find.</p> <p>@LittleFox: It's a Presbyterian baptism, so saints and crucifixes aren't an option. I do like the idea of a simple cross for the wall, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift-for-baby-boy#post-1701496 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 12:25:37 +0000 Chocoholic 1701496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH got his god son a cross on a pin so he could wear during baptism.

I can't remember the titles of the prayer books, but I know I've posted it here before, so maybe it will come up if you search.</p> <p>ETA: I found my old post. Here are some ideas:</p> <p>This book is my favorite - very pretty illustrations.</p> <p>[attach=2480/14/n77zr5.300x300.image.jpg]<br /> Poems from multiple cultures/religions.</p> <p>[attach=2480/14/n77zr6.300x300.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2480/14/n77zr8.300x300.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2480/14/n77zr9.300x300.image.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift-for-baby-boy#post-1701434 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 11:03:27 +0000 LittleFox 1701434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A bible (a children's bible or a nice one to hang onto for when he's older), a prayer book (they make children's prayer books), a stuffed lamb, a rosary, a saint medal for the namesake of the parish or any other saint that could be special to them, a stuffed lamb, a crucifix (unless the other godparent is buying that).</p> <p>Our son's godparents bought him cross/crucifix necklaces, and nice crucifixes for his wall.</p> <p>Nix the rosary and saint medals from the list if it's not a Catholic baptism. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift-for-baby-boy#post-1701410 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 10:34:51 +0000 thisisme 1701410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get to be the godmother for my cousin's baby boy! The baptism is next weekend, so I'm looking for a gift that I can get pretty quickly. A cross necklace for a girl would be sooo easy, but I'm stumped for a boy. </p> <p>Ideas? </p>
