Easter has just passed and we know most young children in the church will receive their first communion the last weekend of April or first week of May. During this time, many family members and close friends will get a gift to mark this ceremonial moment in a child's life. Some will get a nice frame, biblical book, prayer plaques/cubes or other gifts. One gift option which we find will last with the child is jewelry (crosses, rosaries, or engraved bracelets). Gifts ranging from $20 and up. Here are some gift ideas to give for a first communion for both boys and girls: 

Cross with a Heart

This is a great gift to give to a young girl. It's cute and classic. She'll definitely enjoy wearing it. The rose and white gold combination is gaining in popularity; adding a little pink to her jewelry. 

Rosary Bracelets

Both boys and girls can wear a rosary bracelet. This is another great option because it will be on their wrist. A great reminder to an important moment in their life. They are also reasonably priced compared to other communion gifts in jewelry. Most are sterling silver bracelets. 

Classic Cross Pendant

You can't go wrong with the classic cross. This is a gift they can wear the rest of their lives. It's great because it's simple and meaningful. You can get classic crosses in sterling silver, white gold, or yellow gold. It's a versatile gift. 

Crucifix Crosses

If you're looking for a gift for a boy receiving a communion, it's common to give a crucifix. As with a classic cross, this will be with him or her for a lifetime. It's something they can wear all the time. 

Diamond Crosses

These crosses are great for young girls. It's something sparkly and pretty for them to wear. It most likely will be her first real piece of jewelry to wear and with diamonds. These are great to give and petite so it will be perfect to wear in honor of a memorable moment. 

Engravable Cross Necklace

Just like a diamond cross, this is a great gift to give a young girl. You can engrave her name and communion date for something she can cherish the rest of her life.
