Traditionally, young people and children receive gifts in the form of cash from their guests. Traditionally, one's own parents give the most - sometimes up to several hundred euros.

Grandparents also often give around 200 euros so that their beloved grandchild can buy a new laptop, for example. If you are not really close to the person concerned, but give them a disproportionate amount of money, this can be unpleasant for the recipient. If in doubt, you should ask your parents first whether your planned amount is appropriate. In contrast to confirmation or confirmation, the children who receive communion are still relatively young - usually between seven and ten years old. Therefore, on the one hand, smaller amounts are appropriate here. If the celebration is large enough, fewer close friends or neighbors are also invited. When it comes to gifts, they usually stay between five and 25 euros. Remember that sometimes less is more.
