What should a guest bring to a bris?
Since a bris is a circumcision ceremony for a newborn Jewish boy (typically it takes place on the eighth day of the boy's life), an appropriate gift is anything one would normally give to parents of a newborn: clothes, toys or whatever else a baby needs.

What is a good Passover gift?
Passover is not a gift giving holiday. If the question is regarding what to bring your hostess during Pesach (Passover), appropriate gifts are kosher le pesach wine, chocolates, dried fruits and nuts. There are also really nice tea gift boxes and things like that. I assume that you mean children gifts; educational games, such as QuestZion or Kosherland are mostly recommended by Jewish parents and educators. If you are looking for more adult-like gifts, then kosher wine, Seder plates, or some products of Israel would be very appropriate.
When do you give a gift on a bar mitzvah at the party or before?
Jewish tradition considers it improper to handle money or to carry anything between public and private domains on the Sabbath, so if you are coming to a Sabbath service to celebrate the event, it's traditional not to bring the gift to the synagogue. Non-Jews aren't held to this commandment, though, and since many do bring gifts, it's common for there to be a basket where they can be left. If there's an "after party" on Saturday night, bringing gifts there is entirely appropriate. If the family is celebrating at a Friday evening service and the service start before sunset, it's entirely appropriate to bring gifts then.
Is it appropriate to ask guests to bring wine or food when they are already bringing a gift?

How much should you spend on a neighbors gift for a bris?
