Have some ideas but was trying to different ideas for godmother/father gifts to give on the actual christening day.


Answer
There are a few cute godparents gifts that you can give!

If you want to give them a religious gift, you could give them a beautiful bible and write a note on the inside about how special it is to be a godparent --> this is a keepsake they can have for the rest of their life!

You could give them a savings bond that they could cash in when they are older.

If it is a girl, you can buy her a cross or an angel necklace to wear when she is old enough.

You could buy them a frame and get in engraved, and have a picture of you and the baby at the baptism.

I think all of these are really special, sentimental gifts that will be treasured by both the child and parents :)

I was asked to be the godmother to my sisters baby?

What do i get for a shower gift? I wanted it to be personalized. So far im making a blanket but i'm the girl who always makes a blanket so she is expecting that. I really want something that no one else will think of and will knock her socks off! HELP!


Answer
A really special gift like a gold bangle, bracelet, other jewellery etc, is usually given by the godparents to the child at the christening rather than before the baby is even born so I wouldn't get something like that yet.

You could get her a
voucher for a family photographic sitting for when the baby arrives
Voucher for a belly casting (where they plaster mould your belly and paint it)
Voucher for a pregnancy photo session
Pay for a nappy service for a month (if she wants to use cloth) or buy a months supply of disposable diapers
An electric swing
Start a scrapbooking album of their wedding pics, her preggo pics and then scrapbook but leave space for photos of the baby pictures so all she has to do is slip in the right photos
An electric swing is fabulous!!
A full matching linen set for the crib & some or all (depending on what you want to spend) of the matching wall hangings, hamper, valance etc... like these sets..., you don't have to go the whole thing, but the crib sets with the matching rug and wall hangings are cute!

You could also pack her a 'labour bag' with scented candles, soothing cd's, oils, lotions, toiletries like shampoo, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb etc, all things she will need but its all done for her!

If you really want to make things yourself you could make a diaper cake, just google images of diaper cakes and you'll find 1000's for inspiration. You could make face washer lollipops or cupcakes.

Have fun!
