Finding just any gift for a child is easy. You can just grab a simple toy from any store and give it to them. If you want to impress them and give them something that they will cherish forever, it will not be an easy process. Here are some things you can keep in mind when you are trying to find that perfect personalized gift for them.

One of first things that you can do to simplify the process is to find something with the child's name on it. There is nothing that can personalize a gift more than having their name on it.

Get something that is suited to the child's age. Choosing something that they perceive as being for younger children will cause them to discard it like a toy for a baby, but if you choose something that is for a child much older, they may appreciate it more than their parents do.

Color is an important thing for any child over the age of four. By that time, they have already determined what their favorite color is and if you know what it is, capitalize on it. If you don't know what the child's favorite color is, ask them or their parents. And if the child is too young to have a favorite color, choosing something that is brightly colored oftentimes will catch their eyes.

As with any other personalized gift, find something that has meaning. If your gift can be connected to a major occasion that you shared together, it will intensify the value to them by untold amounts.

If you are serious about getting a personalized gift, make it a keepsake. Don't be afraid to invest a little extra money in the gift to give it that extra sentimental value. Engraving a name or date is one idea.

Giving a child something that is personal to you can be something that will be personal to them. If you don't have much money or have something you want to pass down, this is an excellent option. Who knows, they may pass it down to a child when they are much older, too.

With all this in mind, here are some good personalized gift ideas. For babies and toddlers, there are a lot of companies that make personalized blankets, toys, stuffed animals, and even personalized books. For children ages three to nine, a door sign with their name or personalized toys are nice. Preteens and teenagers are the most difficult to buy for, but custom jewelry and sports equipment can be big. Even small electronics like MP3 players with their name engraved on it are considerable gifts. Something like this can give them something they will use daily and remember you ever time that they do.

Whatever the reason, finding the right personalized gift for a child will provide them with something that they will hold onto forever. Maybe someday they will pass that on to a child that is special to them when they are old.
