Do you have a fashion-conscious teen who is into all things fashion and jewelry and has recently been into rings, but you’re wondering if they should be wearing rings are their age?
We live at an age where kids are more progressive than we ever were at your age, and sometimes it can be confusing when you don’t know what to say yes or no to.
So, in this article, we’ll take a deep dive into different aspects of teens’ fashion and the applicable rules, if any. And we hope to answer some of your questions like: What are the rules and essential recommendations regarding 14-year-olds or even younger kids wearing rings?
Is there an age cap below which kids should not wear rings, and what are the reasons?
Can a 14-year-old girl wear a ring?
Generally, rings are recommended for slightly grown-up kids, just as with necklaces. And by age 14, your child is essentially a teen who is very much aware of essential things like fashion and safety, so a ring might be one of the types of jewelry that she can have on safely.
Also, this is the age when they start falling in love and may exchange promise rings and friendship bracelets. They may also have school rings, so we believe that 14-year-olds can wear rings.
You could also give your 14-year-old a ring to celebrate special occasions. Even then, you can be sure that they will not wear it all the time. Most kids this age would rather stud earrings, charm bracelets, and maybe pendant or nameplate necklaces.
Don’t forget that by age 14, your little princess can decide what they want to wear and what they want to look like. And a ring is not a big deal.
Is it ok for a 13-year-old boy to wear a ring?
A ring is not a big deal, so, sure, you should let them know if your 13-year-old wishes to wear a ring as long as the ring is theirs and it doesn’t violate school rules or any other dress codes that are important to you.
That said, rings have always been historically significant, and if the ring is a graduation ring or family crest ring, maybe even a promise ring, he can keep the ring on.
The only time you may have to intervene regarding wearing the ring is if it is worn during sports, it may hurt them, and jewelry is generally disallowed in sports.
Also, the ring can only be worn away from school or play with other kids because kids always find reasons to fight over such things, and you wouldn’t want a ring to be the reason for a fight or huge argument. So, as long as it is not a safety hazard and doesn’t violate some dress code, he can wear a ring.
What size ring does a 13 -17-year-old wear?
Rings for children often come in sizes ranging from 12mm and up to 15.3mm for babies aged 3-6, but above 13 years, the ring size is often 7 or 8 or bigger. By age 17, most ring sizes would be in the adult’s ring size categories. But all rings for children are measured in ½ sizes.

How old do you have to be to wear a ring?
Even babies can wear rings, but the consensus is that children above a certain age who understand safety matters are more ideal for wearing rings. But if you are shopping for rings, you will notice that there are rings for babies, the ½ size rings, to kids over 11 years.
However, considering safety and health concerns, the ideal age for children to start wearing rings is between 12 and 14 years. By age 12, children have demonstrated the ability to be more responsible and maintain safety, especially around their jewelry.
Of course, there are instances where they will make terrible mistakes or be involved in accidents when wearing rings, but at 12 years or older, most children can wear rings safely.
For special occasions, and when you’re certain that your child will not remove the ring and put it in their mouth, they can have rings on from a tender age of 3. There are cute options out there, but you have to be careful and always watch out because you never know.
