Being asked to be a godparent is an honour. Mark it with a keepsake that acknowledges the special role.
From Parents to Godparents
- Framed photo: A photo of godparent and godchild from the christening day in a personalised frame.
- Engraved keepsake: A keyring, bracelet, or ornament engraved with “Godparent to [name], [date].”
- Letter: A handwritten letter explaining why you chose them. Simple, powerful, and cost-free.
From Godparents to Godchild
- Silver keepsake: A classic christening gift: silver cup, spoon, or frame engraved with the date.
- Savings account: Start a savings account or premium bonds — practical and growing.
- Annual tradition: Commit to an annual outing or gift. The consistency matters more than the cost.
- Time capsule letter: Write a letter to be opened on their 18th birthday. What the world was like, your hopes for them, your love for their parents.
