I think something in silver maybe, like they used to do in the 19th century. Or maybe someting really authentic that the baby can keep for years and still have when they're grown up and say, 'My grandparents got me this as a christening present.'

If the parents do not have a christening gown for baby yet, I think buying (sponsoring) the gown is also a good gift idea. I would not necessarily buy the gown without the parents having agreed to it, meaning they should be involved in the selection!

Otherwise there are more religious and more 'worldly' gifts or also symbolic gifts. You can find great christening gift ideas at the link below (named Best Christening Gift Ideas).

I GOOD IDEA OF SOMETHING TO BY IS A FIRST BIBLE. A CANDLE OR A PRAYER CARD, I SUGGEST A BIBLE OR CANDLE AS MORE EXITING PRESENTS.

There are more 'worldly' gifts and religious gifts as well as symbolic gifts for a baby's baptism. See the link below for some good ideas in these categories (Best Baptism Gift Ideas).
Have you considered purchasing something instead of a cash gift?

If this is a confirmation gift, chances are, they probably already have a bible. Christian culture has evolved so that you have choices in giving more trendy items that still express faith for around $20.

Funny and modern christian based shirts -

approx $17.00 (see link below)

Christian Caps - approx $14-$15 (see link below)

Christian Jewelry - Christian jewelry is a popular choice, and selections vary from silver purity rings to trendier casual pieces that can be accessorized to match Tees and clothes that are trendy. ($9.99 to $22.99) (See link below)

The reason we have Christenings is so we can be welcomed as a part of God's family. So that we can have a faith in God that gets stronger and stronger as we get older. A good Christening gift in my opinion would be either something that the child would remember as they grew older like a silver bracelet or something religious to strengthen their faith like a baby bible or prayer card.

You can give keepsake bible, or some christening accessories. I bought The Bible and bips embroidered holy cross for my cousin's daughter at My Sweet Dress.com. They shipped so fast and I received them in 3 days.

An appropriate Christening gift is something that the baby can use. Baby clothes are useful. Give the baby something to keep him/his warm especially if winter time is approaching or is the season. Keepsakes are also a good idea.
