Baby Baptism gift Help Needed

DH's cousin's son (would that be his 2nd cousin?) is getting baptized next month. I think he'll be about 5 to 6 months. The family is not religious at all (so i am not sure why they are having him baptized).

I don't want to give money or a religious gift. I was thinking maybe a nice frame, so they could put in a pic of the day? They did not get our son a gift when he was baptized, so I am not sure how much to spend, I was thinking $25ish.

TIA

Re: Baby Baptism gift Help Needed

Just give what you are comfortable with.

As for the comment about not knowing why they are baptizing. You can't know what is important to people. My son is being baptized and no one would consider us religious. But I want my child exposed to the community and morals that being a part of the church offers. For us it is less about the religion and more about the fellowship and community. I grew up a very active member of the church. And want my children to have the same oppurtunity.
