A first communion happens once, usually at seven or eight, and most of the gifts are forgotten by the next birthday: the cards, the cash, the plastic rosary. The personalized first communion gifts worth giving are the ones the family keeps and brings out again, with the child's name and the date of the Mass on them.
Keepsakes with the name and the date
- A metal ornament (from $23) reading "My First Holy Communion" above a simple gold cross, with the child's name and the date below. It hangs on the tree every Christmas after.
- A ceramic ornament pair (from $39) with the same design: one for the family, one for the godparents or grandparents.
The photo from the day
- A framed photo print (from $46.50) of the portrait outside the church, with a caption such as "Emma's First Holy Communion".
- A family name photo canvas (from $49) with the family photo from the day beside your surname, for a larger wall.
First communion gifts for boys and for girls
The same keepsakes suit both. The ornament and the print carry the name and date, not a color scheme, so first communion gifts for boys and for girls differ only in the photo and the name. The gifts are meant for the family to keep, not as toys.
When to order
First holy communion gifts are usually given in April or May. Everything is printed to order, so order at least two weeks before the day, and send the photo soon after for the framed print or canvas.

Questions
What date should go on the ornament?
The date of the Mass, written the way you want it printed, such as May 2, 2027. The date line fits up to 22 characters on the metal ornament.
Is the ornament a toy?
No. It is a keepsake to hang on the family tree each Christmas or display on a stand, not a toy for a young child.
