I would go with a savings bond...my neice's communion is in two weeks and my sister was saying that you can get a $50 savings bond for only $27 I think because it doubles as the years go on.

Usually you can buy the bond at a discount b/c the government is borrowing your money, investing in it, and at maturity, the bond holder's amount would have increased at whatever rate of return. I would suggest buying a $100 bond, which is probably $80 right now, and in 10/15 years, it'll be $100.

FH bought a savings bond for her best friend's baby's christening this Sunday from his bank.

I usually write a check for $50 and get a small gift.
