Jewellery is an amazing treasure for any child; its sparkly, shiny nature really appeals to girls and a new gift of jewellery is something special for them. Particularly a special item of jewellery made with quality materials such as silver or semi-precious stones which is meant to be kept by the child for a long time.
There are several occasions upon which a jewellery gift would be appropriate for a child. This article will discuss some of these occasions and also ideas for particular items of childrens jewellery which might appeal.
Many children’s first piece of jewellery is a christening or naming ceremony gift. Extendible baby bracelets are popular, because they grow with the baby and they can be engraved. A few different ideas are a small silver locket, a cross (depending on religion), or a pendant of the child’s birthstone. This is a great gift because it’s special to the particular child.
When children are bridesmaids or flower girls, it’s a common tradition for the bride to buy them a gift, which is often jewellery. A great idea is a silver charm bracelet with a few charms which commemorate their day, for example a heart to symbolise the wedding they were bridesmaid at. This way the parents and other relatives can buy more charms for other special occasions and add to the bracelet. The great thing about a charm bracelet is it’s very easy to add extra links and make it longer, as the child grows older.
A good piece of advice, which sounds obvious but is not always followed, is to discuss the gift with the parents before buying it; it might be similar to something they have already bought, or they might have a different idea that they would prefer the child to receive. This way you can be guaranteed your gift of jewellery will be loved and treasured.
