Wooden Toy Chests Are Versatile And Stylish
Handcrafted or laser engraved wooden toy boxes will be appreciated by both boys and girls. Look for top quality construction and thoughtful details like safety hinges. Furniture quality toy boxes will use hardwoods such as oak or cherry to last for years and can withstand the wear and tear of toys being dragged in and out. Personalized touches might include the child's name engraved in a decorative font, the alphabet using whimsical letters, or a special message from you.
Wooden toy boxes or toy chests are versatile gifts because they can be used as storage or blanket chests when a child is older. They can take it with them to their first home and use it as a traditional "Hope Chest" to store linens, cherished mementos or comforters. A handcrafted toy chest may eventually be used by the next generation, who will love using their parents' or grandparents' chest as their own.
Fine Jewelry Will Be Handed Down To The Next Generation
Engraved jewelry is another lovely heirloom gift tradition. Little girls may receive a small, gold cross for their first communion, as fine jewelry is always in style for children. An engraved locket with a picture of the gift giver will be cherished by the little girl in your life. Birthstone earrings or a birthstone ring are also wonderful gifts that will be handed down after years of being proudly worn for special occasions. For a young boy, you might want to buy an ID bracelet with his name on one side and a short message on the reverse.
Furniture quality toys often become heirlooms. A hand-carved rocking horse that's beautifully painted will be a hit with any toddler. Years later, that same rocking horse will be used by children and grandchildren. Look for rocking horses with manes and tails of premium wool or cotton yarn and a smoothly sanded finished wood for comfort and beauty.
