Idea for present for First Holy Communion
RACT
Posts: 30 Forumite
My nephew is going to be doing his First Holy Communion and I'd like to get him a present but not sure what to get him. He is going to be 7 years old soon and my budget is about £50. We usually tend to get a present that is a bit long lasting but till now my experience has been with girls so I tended to buy jewellary. My nephew has Asperger's Syndrome so I was thinking something enducational, maybe, but not sure what. If anyone has any ideas, it would be great if you could pass them on. Thank you for your help.

What about a watch? You'd get something really nice for that much money and you could get it engraved as a memento of his day.0

Hi we bought my best friends son a really chunky trendy looking silver cross and he has worn it every day as do most boys at his catholic school.
Depends how being a aspie affects him my daughter has apergers and would appriciate a cross but realise if it is more severe it may not be apropriate.
what about a book about holy commnion or bible or rosary beads.
My friend son got the dangerous book for boys too!
My dd loves her worl book of records being a child with aspergers who LOVES facts!

I had a photo album made on ebay witht the date,name,church etc on it,and then on the day took a lot of photos,so the child can then put them in the book. We then gave some money also as tbh they get a lot of religious things,which nice though they are,do not really appeal to kids of that age.0
