Many cultures worldwide consider gold gifts appropriate for babies, whether a little boy or girl. Perhaps, gold is considered the most popular newborn baby’s gift, whether in the form of small gold coins, a small brooch, bracelet, or stud earrings. Many parents pierce their baby girl’s ears at an early age so that she will be able to wear gold stud earrings to confirm her gender.

Although this may be a common practice in the Arab world, India, Pakistan, and Turkey, among others, it may sound weird and worrying for some parents. They may wonder if letting their months-old baby wear gold jewellery is safe for her skin and health in general.

In fact, gold is beneficial for the growth of the child. According to many medical researchers, it is advisable to give a new baby a certain amount of gold, gold ash to be accurate, due to its amazing benefits.

Gold also enhances memory and overall disease-fighting abilities. It has been proven that gold will enhance the immunity system of babies.

Being the precious metal that can cause less, if none, skin irritation, especially in its purest form, 24K, it makes gold jewellery the perfect fit for babies. Gold jewellery of 24K, 22K, 21K, and up to 18K is safe for the children’s skin and health, and there will not be a need to panic over a gold bracelet to be worn by your little daughter.

Another concern that may arise in parents’ minds is, will my little kid understand the importance of the gold necklace jewellery she has.

The answer to this question depends on how much your child is aware of the word “responsibility”. How does she act toward her other belongings? Does she take care of her dolls, for example?

We cannot specify an age like 10 and above and say this is the age you will start depending on your little girl to own her jewellery because a 10-year-old girl does not necessarily understand responsibility. Therefore, measuring the awareness in your daughter is the best indication.

If you sense a responsible child who can protect her belongings well, you have no issues. Your daughter is ready to own her first gold jewellery.

However, it is always recommended to give gold jewellery to your child on special occasions. For example, during her birthday party, Eid and other special holidays. After this special occasion is over, there is no need to keep a precious and expensive item with the little girl.
