5 Ideas for The Perfect Christening Gift


Trying to find the perfect christening gift? Fear not help is at hand. We all know one of the biggest milestones for babies and their parents is the christening. A ritual steeped in tradition and often one of the first celebrations that a newborn baby experiences.

Seen as an honor to be invited to such a significant event in a child’s life; an invitation simply shows you that you are not only an important figure to newborn parents but one held in high esteem. As an attendee you should endeavor to adhere to the expectations of christening guests. Therefore, you should dress appropriately (as you would at any other formal religious occasions), be aware of the day’s proceedings and as customary bring along a christening gift for new parents and baby.

What to gift?
When gifting, you want to give a christening gift that is not only appropriate but special. Buying the perfect christening gift can often be a challenge. Do you buy a trinket? A toy? Or opt for a christening gift that is traditionally classic and durable keepsake like a cashmere baby blanket.
The ultimate goal is to buy a baby gift that stands out and that parents will not only be impressed by but also practical use of. It is not unusual that parents receive christening gifts that are left untouched at the bottom of a drawer or worse still given away at another christening.  Although nightmare situations like the later are hopefully few and far between the reality is that it is up to you the guest or godparent to get a christening gift that proves impressive and useful.
We at Willow and Cole have compiled a list of 5 christening gifts ideas for both boys and girls that are not only classic in design but practical in their use.
