There are many headaches about what to give on the day of a child’s First Communion.
The parents must organize the entire event, which involves multiple expenses: the communion dress, complements, reminders, celebration, etc.… That is why, as mothers, we recommend that you give some of these gifts to your guests, such as the communion dress which can be given by the child’s grandparents, aunts, uncles or godparents, the reminders that can be a present from a relative, as well as theaccessories (shoes, hair accessories).
In this way, the parents will only have to pay for the cost of the wedding reception and the photographer, which saves money.
But obviously, our children are going to receive multiple gifts for their First Communion… Here are some gift ideas, in case you run out of ideas:
- Traditional gifts: Bible, religious medal, watch, bracelet, earrings, photo album…
- Technological gifts: video consoles, small computers, DVDs, CDs, photo or video cameras, cell phones…
- Others: books, clothes, school supplies, sports equipment…
There are many possibilities, but you should always look for a gift that is practical and useful and fits the child’s personality.
