Many parents, aunties, grandparents, Godparents etc., want to mark an occasion in the life of their special someone. For babies and children, birthdays are the obvious main contenders for a gift of a special piece of baby jewelry or children’s jewelry. But there are many other times in the life of a baby or little girl where her doting relatives and friends want to buy a piece of jewelry which “marks” the occasion.
Christmas for example, especially baby’s first Christmas, is a time when many like to buy a tiny gold or silver baby charm in the shape of a Christmas tree, or other Christmas icon, for the little charm bracelet they gave baby for her Christening, or as a newborn baby gift. Charm bracelets make great gifts for children due to there being available, a great selection of charms to add to it, which represent all the special occasions, holidays and events in their lives, which makes future gift-giving easy.
At Easter, a little pair of bunny rabbit earrings would make an excellent gift. To meet the demand, there are little chains with Easter eggs as tiny pendants with or without a rabbit pendant. But be wary of cheap metal holiday jewelry because of the possible nickel and lead content.
Valentines Day is not just for adults! This is another occasion we love to give our little girls a special heart-shaped pendant necklace, or heart-shaped children’s earrings, or a little bracelet with heart charms.
Christenings offer a unique opportunity to buy baby girls (and often baby boys as well) their first cross. This cross might be in the form of a children’s pendant necklace, or baby-sized earrings, or once again, the first charm to be added to her first charm bracelet. These are the sorts of gifts which become family keepsakes, to be kept to be worn by future babies in the family and even the next generations of babies.
In the event your little girl is chosen to become a flower girl or bridesmaid, there are children’s bracelets, necklaces, earrings, all with a “wedding flavour” available. Pearls, silver and gold are all popular, as are gemstones in the colour of the chosen outfits. For example an amethyst bracelet with matching earrings if the dress is to be purple, rose quartz if the dresses are in pink, turquoise if the dresses are blue, citrine or peridot if the dresses are green etc.
Truth is, we are all looking for an excuse to indulge our little girls and babies – it’s just that special occasions give us a unique opportunity – without looking too indulgent!
