i think most are 7 years, but i *think* they can continue to mature beyond that.

Re: What is a proper gift
Hmmm for some reason I thought it was 17yrs.
Thats why I thought bond wasnt a good idea for a communion....
When they are babies- if it takes 17 years- it would mature just intime for college... and obviously if they are 7 they are waiting til they are 24...

Re: What is a proper gift
I've been buying lots of bonds lately. I was told they take 7 years to mature. I think a bond is a good gift.
