Children's earrings: a gift for every occasion:

Earrings are a perfect gift for any occasion, such as a birthday, Sinterklaas or Christmas. You can also give them as a gift when your child changes teeth or goes to school. My personal favorite is an equal set with you and your child.

Safety first:

It is important to check whether the earrings you buy for your child have sharp edges or points. Also avoid earrings with small parts that can become loose and swallowed.

At what age should you get earrings for your child?

The age at which your child can wear earrings is a personal choice. There is no legal minimum age for having children's ears pierced. Some parents choose to have earrings fitted to their baby or toddler, while others wait until their child is a little older.

Factors to consider:

• Your child's age: Children under 3 years old are not yet aware of the value of their earrings and may pull them out or accidentally damage them.
• Your child's development: Some children have poor motor skills and may have difficulty keeping their earrings clean.
• Your child's experience of pain: Getting your ears pierced can be painful. Some children are more sensitive to pain than others.
• Your own feeling: It is important that you feel comfortable with the decision to skip earrings on your child.
