6. Baby\u2019s first bible<\/h3>\n

After the baby has been baptised, they start a journey to grow their faith in Christianity. One way of growing in faith is by reading the bible to understand the word of God.<\/p>\n

However, at their age, the standard bible may be difficult for them to understand. Therefore, getting them the standard bible at that age may not be the best idea. But, a baby\u2019s first bible would be an excellent idea.<\/p>\n

The parents can start using the bible to teach the kids about God’s word using bible stories. The stories in the baby\u2019s first bible include those of Adam and Eve, Moses, Jesus, and Noah\u2019s Ark<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

7. Baby\u2019s first book of prayers<\/h3>\n

After the christening, babies need to start learning how to pray to communicate with God.<\/p>\n

If you were thinking of the perfect gift to give a baby\u2019s parents during the christening, a baby\u2019s first book of prayer is an excellent idea.<\/p>\n

The prayer book comes with various prayers together with their easy to understand illustrations. The prayers are perfect for reading to babies or toddlers so that they can start learning how to pray.<\/p>\n

The book is not expensive, and so you don\u2019t have to spend a lot on the gift.<\/p>\n

\n

8. Scripture swaddle<\/h3>\n

\"Scripture<\/p>\n

When considering a gift to get the baby\u2019s parents during the christening, the best idea is to get a practical gift. The gift should be meaningful, and if they can use it around with the child means it won’t end up on the shelves collecting dust.<\/p>\n

Thus, a swaddle makes an excellent idea for a gift. To make it better, you can customise it with various scriptures from the bible. The scriptures should remind the baby of God\u2019s love for them.<\/p>\n

The swaddle is a practical gift as the mother will use it to wrap the baby and keep it warm. It is a unique gift idea, and the parents will appreciate it for life.<\/p>\n

\n

9. Customised plate set<\/h3>\n

When looking for a gift for anybody, you can never go wrong with a customised gift. A customised gift shows that you put some thought into the gift before buying it.<\/p>\n

As such, a customised and practical gift would be the perfect combination. Therefore, if you were looking for a perfect gift for a baby during the christening, consider a personalised plate set.<\/p>\n

Christening is an essential event that the baby wouldn\u2019t want to forget even as they grow up. Thus, you can get them a customised plate set with their name, christening date, and venue on the plate.<\/p>\n

Every time the child uses the plate as they grow up, they will enjoy seeing their name on it. It will also remind them of the critical event and why they need to continue holding on to their faith.<\/p>\n

\n

10. Lamb rocker<\/h3>\n

You don\u2019t have to sweat it while looking for a gift for the baby during the christening. The simple gift you think of might make the most impact.<\/p>\n

For instance, babies like playing around and relaxing while growing up. Therefore, you can think of a gift that they can use to relax.<\/p>\n

A lamb rocker is an excellent gift idea as it will help the child enjoy and relax with its gentle rocking motion. The rocker comes with handles for the baby to keep secure. It also has a huggable body with soft polyester material that makes it comfortable.<\/p>\n

These 1o gift ideas for Christening are all from the heart and will show the family you care enough to remember their child, your godchild<\/a>, on that very special day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
