All Protestants celebrate the Lord's Supper (receive Holy Communion) although the frequency differs from denomination to denomination and church to church. Many Protestants (but not all) participate in "confirmation classes" and are confirmed, while others attend church membership classes and become just members by a public profession of their faith.

Yes. Some Protestants practice "believer's baptism," in which children are not baptized and do not receive communion until they are of an "age of responsibility," somewhere around puberty. Other denominations baptize infants, but withhold communion until the child is confirmed, again, sometime around puberty. Yet other denominations baptize infants and allow children of all ages to receive communion, leaving it up to the parents to provide appropriate instruction.

Yes to both. I was christened as a baby & confirmed at 11. At my confirmation I received holy communion for the first time & have continued to receive holy communion since that date.

Can I receive Communion at my Nana's funeral mass if I am a baptized but not confirmed Catholic and also an ardent Christian?
Roman Catholic AnswerFirst, let me extend my condolences on the death of your Nana, I am so sorry. If you are a baptised Catholic, who has made his first Holy Communion, and have gone to confession, then, of course, you may receive Holy Communion. If you are not a baptised Catholic or have not made your first Holy Communion, then you make what we call a "spiritual Communion" which is what a Catholic would do if they have not been to Confession, asking Jesus to come into your heart.
Can a Catholic child from a split marriage receive Holy Communion if she is not in the habit of going to Church?
Whether or not you may receive Holy Communion depends on whether you are in a state of grace and properly disposed to receive Holy Communion (and a Catholic). Thus, if you are a Catholic child, and have been to confession recently and are not in a state of sin, and have already made your first Holy Communion, then you may receive Holy Communion. What gives me pause is your "not in the habit of going to Church". Missing a Sunday Mass or a Mass on any Holy Day of your own free will would put you in a state of mortal sin, and you would be unable to receive Holy Communion until you had been in to confession. Your best bet would be to give your local priest a call, make an appointment, and go down and have a talk with him, and make a good confession while you are there. The priest will be able to guide you as to how and when you make receive Holy Communion, and the absolution from the confession will put you in a state of grace to be able to receive Holy Communion.

How do you receive holy communiom?
There are different ways you can receive holy communion. When you walk up to the Priest or the person giving out communion, you place or hands out one over the other. The person giving out communion will say the body of christ, you will then say amen. As you walk back to your seat you can then choose to cross or to not. Another way to receive holy communion is to kneel on the floor in front of the person giving out communion, open your mouth and it will be placed on your tongue. Either one is correct depending on your personal beliefs. You must have taken classes and have received your first communion, to receive holy communion.
Can you take bread and wine at mass if you have not made your First Holy Communion?
.Catholic AnswerAfter the consecration (the prayer the priest says at the altar) there is no more bread and wine. All of it is entirely changed (a process known as transubstantiation) into the Body and Blood of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ. You may only receive Our Blessed Lord in Holy Communion after you are old enough to recognize the difference between bread and wine and Our Blessed Lord's Body and Blood. When you are old enough to know the difference, then you must make your first Confession, and first Holy Communion. And then you receive it, you never take it. Only protestants "take" Communion. Catholics "receive" Holy Communion - there is a HUGE difference.
