Communion gift ideas?

I plan on giving the traditional check, but is there something else for a girl to give to open?

    Jewelry?  Etsy is my go to place for stuff like that - they have really cute initial necklaces or bracelets that are pretty reasonable.

  • Second on jewelry. A pretty necklace - they will outgrow a bracelet, but an awesome necklace can be worn when they are older. DD1 can't remember a thing she got for her communion, but she wears the necklace my sister gave her at most formal(ish) events.

  • I agree to the necklace idea!  My sister got a necklace for her first communion when she was little.  She is DD's god mother, and for DD's baptism she gave DD that necklace.  It was such a cute and sentimental idea!

    Another idea is a nice picture frame.  Sometimes I find religious frames have too much on them.  But if you can find a simple one, those are always nice!

    BTW - I have no idea what I got as first communion gifts.  But I vagely remember getting a tape recorder.  Which has nothing to do with communion?  But I played with that thing for years!

    Got pregnant on our own without Fertility Treatments - January 2016!  Thank you snow storm Jonas!
    EDD 10/15/16
    At 20-week anatomy scan found IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), and very low Amniotic Fluid.  Now, I'm High Risk and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor fluid and growth.  If baby runs out of room or is too growth restricted, they will deliver ASAP.  My current goal is to make it to 28 weeks!
