Beginning the New School Year with Italian Charms

Posted: June 16th, 2009 | Author: gsport11 | Filed under: Jewelry | Tags: , , , , , | 41 Comments »

The mornings are clear and cool now. Leaves on many of the trees are starting to turn bright shades of orange, yellow and red. The air is cooler. Squirrels are starting to gather their stash of seeds and nuts. These are the changes we notice when Fall is near. Another indication of Fall: the start of a new school year. Parents anticipate this event each year, anxious for their children to return to structured routine; hoping educational stimuli will challenge their children’s minds; wishing peer experiences will go smoothly.

Anticipation of the new school year weighs ominously at our house. You see, my children will be going to a new school this year. They are not just starting at any new school, but the neighboring RIVAL school. They are apprehensive about many things in this change, particularly being accepted and making new friends. I have given them each a present to let them realize that I am thinking about their transition; that they are special and unique; that I understand their feelings.

The gifts I have chosen for my children consist of Italian charms. These are simple, easy-to-assemble items that can be put together in such a way to make a very expressive fashion statement. The selection of choices of Italian charms can meet differing and discerning tastes, highlighting interests, hobbies, and collectibles. Italian charms range from sports to musical instruments; from Disney to Elvis; from animals to universal signs.

I have given my son an Italian charm keychain in which to carry his locker and house keys. It fits neatly into his pocket, yet is large enough so as not to be misplaced. The Italian charms I have chosen for this keychain are charms to highlight his interest in college and professional football and eliminate the pressures of “changing teams” in his high school years. My son is an avid Green Bay Packers fan, so he would greatly appreciate that Italian charm. He has aspirations of attending college at the University of Michigan, so the blue and gold “M” Italian charm would also please him. Since football is his favorite sport, the Italian charms of the football, the lasered “I (heart) Football”, and football helmet are added. The selections of these Italian charms make a personal statement for him. He can add additional Italian charms as he pleases. With this Italian Charm Keychain, each time he uses it, he can be reminded that this stage in his life is temporary and he can concentrate on his favorite pastime, instead.

I have chosen an Italian charm bracelet for my daughter. She can wear it with all of her wardrobe choices. She can look at it and be reminded of more secure times. The Italian charms I have selected for her are of the Hello Kitty theme. Hello Kitty with the tennis racket; Hello Kitty driving the car; Hello Kitty in ballerina slippers. What a fun, whimsical choice to act as the conversation-starter she needs. Imagine her delight at other girls noticing this Italian charm bracelet and showing interest in it.

Italian charms proclaim a unique statement no matter whether worn in a bracelet or attached to a keychain. They are personalized to one’s interests and taste preferences. In my children’s situation, they are quite the ice-breaker for meeting new friends and becoming an accepted new member of the teen classmates.
