What do you think about baby/toddler jewelry?

Izzy always wears her amber necklace but I dont see that as jewelry if that smakes sense cos it has a purpose

She has 3 bracelets - one sparkly with her name on ( I bought Amelia one similar cos I think they ae so pretty) , her pandora style one and and a traditional charm one she got for xmas

Ive also just bought her a little silver locket on a little chain for her birthday...and Dan said oh for when she is older? I said no its her size now, he thinks she will tug it, but she doesnt tug her other necklace!

I wouldnt ever get her ears done, I don't think it looks right, but I think bracelets and necklaces look cute.

Caitlin has 2 baby bangles but never wears them as they too big and as they kind of sentimental/expensive I dont want them getting lost/bent. When they fit properly she can wear them.

I do like jewellery but any I have seen look like they would break too easy eg elastic with coloured beads Caitlin would have snapped and scattered in 5min flat.

If I saw some that were toddler proof I would buy it. I wouldnt put a silver chain on though as I do think Caitlin would snap it/hurt her neck pulling. All LO's are diff though so Izzy could be ok.

I wouldn't attempt to put jewellery on Lilly only because she would destroy it i bought her a little bangle for her first christmas but she doesn't wear it

Its each to their own really isnt it. I don't personally like it as i think they are a bit young for 'real' jewellery, I don't find it offensive or anything like I do pierced ears but its just not my taste. Lily has some horrendous plasticy stuff that she plays with but that is about it. xx

Only coz she would break it within five secs, or hurt herself, I dont have 'proper' jewellery for Sophia, but she does have a couple plastic necklaces and bangles to play with.

Tayla has a links of london bracelet which i love but she hardly wears it. I think bracelets are cute but thats as far as id prob go. I havnt seen many girls with necklaces tbh?

i actually think they look really cute too.
If i thought dita wouldnt break/lose anything in 2 seconds flat then i would have little chain and bracelet on her, she got 5 silver bracelets for her christening and one locket on a silver chain but she hasnt worn any cos she takes the bracelets off straight away so havent tried the chain.

However i do want an amber necklace for her because her teething is horrendous at the moment and none of the usual methods seem to work so i want to give it a go, where do you recommend to get one from?!

Chelsea had 2 gold bangles she wore till she was about 18 months and never took off, she also had her ears pierced at 4 or 5.
Archie had a little silver chain with a little silver cross on until he was about 2 and it didnt fit him anymore.

Personally i dont see a problem with it if the child doesnt mind. Obviously if they pulled at it or showed discomfort then you would take it off. It depends on the child.

i don't really like them at all - they are a bit in the line of getting your lo's ears pierced in my mind (although nowhere near as bad!) but they are a bit old/grownup looking? i think special bracelets etc are lovely for keepsakes though and for memory boxes

Aimee has quite a few pieces of jewellery but she doesnt wear any of it, she simply couldnt be trusted for a second.

hannah has a gorgeous silver bangle and a pandora bracelet (not real)

she wears them on special occasions as she just asks for them on and off all day and it bugs me. but she looks that extra bit gorge if she wears them.

I didnt think of buying her a necklace. might wait until her 3rd birthday and buy her a really special one. she loves costume jewellry necklaces so Im sure she would be fine

Arwyn has her Christening bangle but she's not worn it since her Christening. She has her amber anklet that never comes off and an amber necklace that I occasionally put on her but she's far too wee for anything else.

Niccsy, Dino-Daisy are really good. She has a website and facebook page too

I don't like jewellery on babies/young children, Chloe has play jewellery and some things she got at her christening but doesn't wear them, then again I wear very little jewellery myself, only a fingerprint necklace as its special to me but very rarely anything else so maybe that plays a part in why I don't like it x

are you sure lisa? whats the likely hood of her destroying it? but of course if she does i will replace it!

hardly any, they will break when they need...but if she does then she does lol not the end of the world!

Im expecting it in the morning, and Im at the post office anyway so if you wanna PM your address I'll send it on.

my niece is obsessed with jewellery. from a tot she wore a little signet ring and bangle and also a few chains. she was quite good at looking after them thou. she still wears a chain, has her ears done and has 2 wee rings. shes almost 5 now.

as a tot i wore baby bangles on megan and i wore torque bangles on the boys.

im 50/50 on it..


paige has had a single bangle, but we have taken it off her now as she keeps pulling at it n im worried she will break it.. she has a pandora bracelet which one of our friends got her (her soon to be goddad.) n he buys a charm n what not each birthday and xmas. but its a big one so she will get it when she is older.

but paige loves brancelets n stuff. she has lots of kiddie bead ones n wears them alot. she got upset today as she broke her necklace n started crying coz all of the beads went every where x

I probably wont put any on girlypants simply because I'm not a jewelry person. I only wear my Ollie necklace and engagement ring, so I'm not the type to think 'oh thats pretty'

ava has her amber teething necklace, i wouldnt get her any other jewellery but i dont really like it for myself.
