Baptism Gifts for Girls
A baptism is an important event in a girl’s life. It marks the beginning of her journey as a disciple of Jesus Christ and provides an opportunity for her to feel supported by her family, friends, and community.
Here are some ideas to get you started on finding the perfect baptism gifts for girls.
Baptism Gifts for Girls: Artwork
A special piece of artwork serves as a great reminder for children of the good feelings they had on this special day. It can remind them of their commitment to follow Jesus Christ and of the comforting power of the Holy Ghost. You might use your gift of LDS artwork as part of a talk if you are one of the speakers at the baptism. Or you might slip in a meaningful scripture in the gift bag along with the painting. As with art itself, the gift-giving possibilities are as endless as your creativity.

Baptism Gifts for Girls: Puzzles
Fear Not 100 Piece Puzzle
This is a warm, encouraging puzzle both in color and message. Artists Kelsy and Jesse said about this piece:
“This mortal world is an experience away from home. We will experience some of our hardest moments of existence while in this place between chaos and order. But we are never alone. Remembering who to call upon in such times can have momentous power over such feelings. Look to Isaiah’s promise and fear not, he is with us; be not dismayed. He is our God! He will strengthen us, He will help us, He will uphold us with His right hand of righteousness.”
Baptism marks the beginning of the journey of discipleship. Help children and youth remember that they never walk it alone.
