What are some good gifts to get Godparents for an infant baptism?

thanks
 
I’ve never heard of giving gifts to the godparents, only to the baby being baptized.
But in both cases I would keep it a religious gift…rosary, prayer book, statue. We have several Catholic stores near me, so I would just browse until something hits me that seems to fit the personality of the person.
 
I am Godmother to a child that was baptized when he was 7, so he wasn’t an infant.

I never thought the parents were going to get me a gift. 🤷 I didn’t get my son’s Godparents anything? :o

But I received a very beautiful bookmark. I don’t think it was very expensive, but something to help me remember the day.
 
Thanks for ya’lls (name removed by moderator)ut. We’ve been thinking of getting the Godparents Rosaries as a symbol of their commitment to our child, I wanted to see what others had for ideas.

Thanks
 
For my daughter’s godparents we got a photo frame egraved “Godparents, May 20, 2007” and then later gave them a photo from the day to give to the. For my son’s godparents we gave them a cross of San Damiano. His name is Francis and the cross of San Damiano was the one that spoke to St. Francis and called him to rebuild the church. So I told them we would like them to call their godson to a holy life like that cross did for St. Francis. In both cases we spent about $30. I think it is a very nice gesture to get a keepsake gift for your baby’s godparents.
 
I have two Goddaughters and as with the above poster, I was given a beautiful picture frame with Godmother and date for each of the girls - engraved. I keep them in a prominent place and frame each of their most current pics.
