Jewellery, except for specific pieces made for young children, is often not suitable for children under 5. This is because jewellery is made up of long chains and small pieces, which both constitute choking hazards. Jewellery is also made of metals, which can cause reactions in some children.
Jewellery also has sharp edges that can cut and harm young children and may become damaged and cause them further harm.
When choosing jewellery for children under 5, it is essential that you choose jewellery specifically designed for kids of this age. Often, it will be made of rubber or special metal that is hypoallergenic and will not harm them.
