Jewelry for Kids

66

By Debbie Gee

A lot of kids understand the significance of jewelry early these days thanks to the extensive media coverage on celebrity kids’ fashion choices. Therefore, don’t be surprised if your three year old daughter wants a pendant just like the one worn by Tom Cruise and Katie homes’ daughter! Clothes and jewelry are becoming high fashion items in the world of today’s kids.

Jewelry for kids should maintain certain parameters such as:

  • Use of Pure Metal (gold, silver)

Pure metal reacts less with the moisture and atmospheric gases. This means that if the jewelry is made of gold or silver then the chances of it rusting is also less. Rust on jewelry can harm your kids’ skin easily. Pure metal also signifies purity. A lot of cultures believe in adorning their kids with pure metal jewelry, especially gold to signify purity and to keep evil at bay.

  • No Sharp edges to the Item

Kids’ jewelry should have round, smooth edges so that they don’t poke or scratch their skin easily. Kids role around in bed all the time while sleeping. This should be kept in mind awhile buying the piece of ornament.

  • No Small Parts that can be Disconnected Easily

Small balls or bells attached to jewelry for kids are a bad idea as these can fall off accidentally. Kids have a tendency of putting everything into their mouth. Therefore, they may swallow these parts by mistake. This can be a serious problem, especially when it is not detected immediately.

  • Not too Tight or Fitted

Jewelry for kids should be lose and fitted well. Too tight bracelets or anklets may interfere with the blood circulation or irritate the skin over time. All this should be taken into account while buying jewelry for kids.

Popular jewelry for kids includes earrings and bangles for girls, bracelets and tie pins for boys. Nowadays a lot of parents are also opting for precious and semi precious gems on their kids’ jewelry. Those who believe in sun signs match the gem according to the time of birth of the child on the jewelry.
