Gifts for Christenings

Christening gifts can be a challenge; traditional gifts such as silver spoons rarely have any practical value and end up stuck in a draw for years.  We’ve tried to blend tradition with practicality with our list of christening gift ideas.  Our ideas are mainly aimed at babies and toddlers getting christened but there should also be some appropriate gifts for older children in there too.

If you can't find a gift idea that you like the look of here, we recommend you try checking the gifts for Babies, gifts for toddlers, gifts for Children or or the Christenings Gift Archive.


Boys shirt Check This Shirt
Tommy Hilfiger Long-sleeved Checked Shirt
When getting christened it’s important to look the part, so a smart shirt for a little boy is a great idea either to where on the day or for future events.  We’re a big fan of this Tommy Hilfiger Shirt from House of Fraser for smarting up a little boy.

Bible Year of Bible Stories
The Children's Bible in 365 Stories
Let’s not forget that a christening is a religious event so it’s well worth considering incorporating this into your gift along with something that the child will cherish.  This gift incorporates both and give a easy guide through 365 stories so that the child can learn the religious messages in easy to understand stories with illustrations. With enough tales to fill a year of bedtime stories this is a brilliant christening gift.

Toddle Truck Toddle-Ooh
Wooden Toddle Truck Red
Not of any religious significance but great fun for a child between 1 and 3 years old, and it also helps them with their early steps and developing essential skills. With wooden blocks and no slip wheels it’s a great gift.

Photo Album My First Picture Album
White Linen Photo Album with Front Cover Frame
A beautiful photo album, perfect for capturing those cherishable memories with significant moments in a young child’s life, their first steps, their first holidays, their christening and perhaps most importantly the time they got spaghetti from ear to ear, over the walls and somehow on the roof as well.  The frame on the cover is a really nice touch and the album holds 200 pictures.

Lamb Silence of the Lamb
Cream Lamb Soft Toy
A cuddly Lamb, which makes a great addition to any baby’s arsenal of soft toys, and at only a fiver it’s a real bargain. This is one sheep you can count on helping the child sleep.

Silver Train Money Train
Silver Plated Train Money Box with Tooth/Curl Carriage
This is a cracking christening gift, a moneybox in the shape of a train. The carriage also provides a nice collection point for the child’s first tooth and first bit of hair.  A lovely little keepsake.
