Dreamland Tree

The poet Elizabeth Prentiss wrote a poem called, "Cradle Song" which says:

Sleep, baby, sleep!
Thy father's watching the sheep,
Thy mother's shaking the dreamland tree,
And down drops a little dream for thee.
Sleep, baby, sleep.


When a baby is christened, the ceremony uses water to reflect a new beginning for life and the soul. Everyone attending a christening always prays the baby will have a life that is rich with dreams that are fulfilled over the years. In the poem, these dreams hang on the mythical dreamland tree, and mother can shake the tree to bring down a new dream.

Using a live tree as a dream carrier makes a beautiful image. The same image can be brought to life by giving a living tree as a present. A live tree can be presented as a symbol of dreams, a thriving earth, and a full and long life.

At most christenings, babies are given very traditional gifts such as Bibles or crosses. While these are cherished and valuable gifts, not everyone can present a gift Bible. Instead, you can give a live tree as a special christening present that can be planted in honor of the baby's new life as a Christian.

A Little Dream for Thee

Christenings are solemn events, because of what they symbolize, but also because the celebrants understand the challenges the baby will face as he or she grows. The wishes for a long life full of accomplishments can almost be seen lingering in the air as if everyone has shaken the dreamland tree. The perfect special christening gift is to give a living tree which reflects your hopes the baby will live in a world that cares about protecting its natural resources as the child grows to adulthood and pursues those dreams.

If you have been wondering what kind of unique gift to give at a christening, the living tree is the solution. You can present your tree with the silent prayer that it holds a little dream for the baby. When the tree is planted and begins to grow, it will be able to hold more and more dreams that represent a full life. There is no more special christening present than a living tree.

When you are invited to a christening, stop and think about what you wish for this new life on earth. By giving a live tree as a gift, you are giving the infant a special christening present which can hold dreams while protecting the earth's resources. It's difficult to imagine a more special gift than one that can give back year after year.
