I really did a search and couldn't find anything!Chat Icon

How much would you give for a not-so-close cousin's child?

A $50 savings bond, or if I hadn't gotten to the bank, a $50 check. But I'd probably rather do the savings bond.

I would say $50 or less. We gave $100 to my nephew.

We usually give $50 for first or second cousins.

$75 for a nephew or neice.

edited to add, we were asked to be Godparents of one of our nephews and we gave $200 plus a gift.
