Ideas for a goddaughter gift

DH & I are our niece's godparents. She is a month old and being baptized later this month.
We planned to give a monetary gift but I'd also like to give something sentimental (under $100 or in that range).
They are not jewelry people. I think my ILs are doing the bible gift.

Any other ideas? Something personalized?

TIA

Oh, I should add that SIL bought her gown already and it was very inexpensive (but I do plan to reimburse her).

i'd say a nice cross (necklace or one you could/would put out) or a rosary. they might not be jewelry people but something sentimental to keep might still be nice.

For my nephew (DH is his godfather), we got a really nice Reed & Barton silver racecar piggy bank and got it engraved on the bottom...the parents loved it. And we put some change in it and also gave him a check for his college fund.

They have cute things for girls too:


Pig

BEAR

DUCK

BUNNY

CARRIAGE

For DS's baptism we received a really beautiful picture frame and a cross for the wall.
