Every religion has a traditional gift item that is always welcomed by the receiver. There is such a vast array of possibilities that it is best to categorize your recipients. There are religious gifts specifically for men and women as well as any adult, teenage girls and boys as well as special gifts for babies and other children. You can look online for each category in any religion.
Jewelry is the first thought for a religious gift. It is easy to get and is very much appreciated. There is jewelry representing most of the major religions of the world including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hindu, Buddhist, Shinto as well as ancient Egyptian and Native American. Jewelry is always a welcome gift because it is not only beautiful, but if it is symbolic of a deeper meaning, it becomes very personal and can last for generations. There is a large selection, online, of Arabic and Islamic jewelry. Some are copies of ancient jewelry form the Mediterranean and some are copies of Bedouin bracelet cuffs and earrings. Jewelry of the signs of the Zodiac is also popular and a good gift for anyone. You don’t have to believe in astrology to appreciate the night sky.
For young men who may not expect a religious gift there are inspirational T-shirts, Bible DVDs and games, kosher sweets, heavy, trendy crucifixes and Star of David. For teenage girls jewelry is the best option but there are also Bible games, inspirational T-shirts for girls, figurines and Hanukkah chocolate and caramel apples and religious posters for both. For babies there are spiritual snow globes, Noah’s arc play sets, Bibles and nativity sets especially for children, and the story of Hanukah in cartoon animation. For anyone, there are beautifully designed calendars with pictures from any religion and important days marked. There are mandala mosaic art sets and tie dye sets for budding artists as well as beautiful, intricate mandala posters that will please anyone with an interest in Buddhism.
Books are another possible religious gift. They are good for anyone interested in spirituality from teenagers to the elderly. There are books about Hinduism, including the many different aspects, Buddhism, the many different sects as well as beautiful editions of the Bible, both old and new Testaments. For children there are inspirational book sets and Christmas coloring books as well as Bible question and answer books. All the religious stories of the world come in editions for children.
Spiritual quotes form all religions can be found on posters, in books and wall hangings. These make religious gifts that are direct and deep. They come in beautiful posters or original paintings; books with a thought for the day; calendars with an inspirational verse for each day. This is such a great gift because it can be found for every belief including Native American, Buddhist, Hindu, Christian, Jew, Muslim and even several African religions. Whether you buy a key chain or a coffee table book on Medieval Christian art you can only please the receiver if he or she leans towards spirituality.
