Other than cash, what is appropriate for an atheist to give for such an occasion. Baby boy is about 3 months. He is my first cousin.
I will also need suggestions for what to bring my 8 yo cousin, his older brother. (And then likely my 12, 14 and 17 yo cousins who will be there too, two teens into cheer, and one male).
We are travelling for the baptism, and it's sort of last minute so I don't have loads to spend. I looked around today and wasn't inspired.
Absolutely no reason to get gifts for the other kids. It isn't their "special day" and th 8 tear old brother is old enough to know and accept that. If he was two I might be swayed, but 8? no gift.
OH, the other gifts would become regular we haven't seen you in a year type gifts.
I'm too lazy to send Christmas/Birthday things for them, so I get them presents every time I see them. I just don't know what kids these days are into! (I might get the girls some essie or OPI polish colours, but can't think of anything else for that age group, and especially for their older brother!)
