These boxes are packed really well, lots of goodies (GREAT QUALITY!) - These boxes are faith-based, but focused on personal development.” – Chelsea C.

What Is A Christening?

If this is your first time attending a christening, you may not know what to expect. First, it's important to understand that a christening is the same as a baptism. Many people think they're two different ceremonies, but that's untrue. A christening is the name for the ceremony. And it's during a christening that the person is baptized.

So, what's a baptism, you ask? It's a sacrament of admission to Christianity. During a baptism, the person is either splashed or quickly immersed in water by a minister. This cleanses that individual of their sins, and they're rebirthed as a Christian.

It's common for parents to baptize their children when they're only a few months old. In fact, some choose to baptize as young as eight days old. That said, people can be baptized at any age, regardless of the religion they were born in.

What Are Thoughtful Christening Gifts?

Now that you know what a christening is, let's explore gift options. Of course, the first thing you must consider is the age of the baptized person. If you're shopping for a little one, you may want to give them something to help further their faith in God as they grow up, like the InJoyBox For Kids.


The goal of InJoyBox For Kids is to bring joy. Each box consists of seven to nine fun items, and one is personalized with the recipient's name. They'll also find a handwritten note of encouragement from the creators. And that's not all! Every InJoyBox is prayed over, and Christian faith-based items are sometimes included.

If you're shopping for someone a little older, consider The Hymn Box™. Each month, this devotional subscription sends four faith-based items and one of the most well-known hymns.

And these are only some of the many options available through Cratejoy Marketplace.
