What do you leave at the grave of a child when you visit?


Question Posted Tuesday October 21 2014, 7:09 pm

Long story short, this family I know had an infant son die at birth. I visit his grave on occasion and leave him flowers, but Thursday will be the first birthday of his that I will leave him anything. I'd leave flowers on his grave, but I've already done so recently and I want to leave him something birthday-ish. Any ideas?

Flowers
Cards
Teddy Bears
Stuffed Animals
Balloons
Ribbons
Small Toys

Since the baby was a boy, you might like to leave him something hot wheels, other small toy cars & trucks, army men, and other such things.

well depending on the rules of the cemetery maintenance people (if the rules arent listed already when you visit) you can leave small toys, small teddy bears. birthday balloons that can be anchered down into the grass so they dont fly away. small baby angel statues. things like that. ifs its a well kept up resting place, there is most likely rules about what you can leave because the care takers of the place are the ones that eventually will have to remove it and throw it away. nothing is allowed to stay there permanently because the grass around the sit has to be mowed and maintained.
