Child Rosary Makes a Perfect Christening or Baptism Gift
Traditionally used by Catholics, rosaries are sacred pieces of jewelry made up of a series of beads used in their prayer ritual.
The standard rosary consists of five sets of beads called decades, each composed of one large and ten smaller beads. Each bead represents a different part of the prayer and the space between the beads is used to count the times into the next bead and prayer.
The larger beads represent reciting the Lord's Prayer or Our Father. The smaller beads represent saying the Hail Mary or Ave Maria. In between the decades, or bead groups, the "Glory be," a mantra, is recited. We found a terrific selection of child rosaries that come in a variety of colors including one that is packaged as a special keepsake gift.
