Any unique ideas for a baby baptismal gift?

My sister's son and baby (arriving Tuesday) are getting baptised in early June . They're actually Episcopalian so I don't want something too overly Catholic but I want to get something special. I got my nephew (almost 3) a children's bible, but am not sure what to get the baby. I don't want to get something for her wall...that's the only real idea (or lack thereof) that I have so far...

What about something like a mass/service said in the child's name or talk to a convent or something and have them devote to this child.
This just made me think of the neatest wedding gift we received... a card signed by some brothers in Chicago that said they were dedicating their daily masses that week to our blessed marriage & life together... it was very touching & I will never forget it!
Definitely helped us! Just an idea... hhmm.. our 1st baby is due in June-- prolly better get on some baptism plans for July/August huh?

I really don't know much about that religion so these ideas may not be appropriate... what about a cross necklace or bracelet? I usually just give $. Let us know what you decide.

You could give a st. Christopher medal. I think Episcopalian believe in saints too. St. Christopher is the protector of Children
