All baby(child) bracelets contain very small pieces of jewelry. These include beads, pearls, charms, sterling letters etc. Therefore, if a bracelet breaks, these small components could provide a CHOKING HAZARD to the baby(child). It is advised that if your child is less than 3 years of age, these bracelets should be used only as an heirloom and NOT for daily wear. Further, always supervise your child and never leave them unattended while they are wearing a baby bracelet.
