1st Birthday Wish Predictions for Baby Girl Future
Il- Quċċija is a Maltese tradition that is celebrated at a child's first birthday party, a local custom that is believed to predict a baby's future. This is an anticipated, one-time ritual which involves the placement of several items, which are representative of different career and lifestyle choices, onto a tray and presented to the child at a distance. It's showtime, baby! There is now an unspoken agreement for guests to vocally compel the child to crawl towards the tray and choose their future, no pressure!
Fortunately, there are no strict rules to this Maltese folklore. In fact, in an innocent attempt at increasing the child's chances of grabbing an object of 'desire', one can expect to witness relatives make several last-minute arrangements to the tray, having the rest of the party goers collapse into laughter at the calculated repositioning. The actual choice of gadgets presented to the child is also within the discretion of the baby's parents or quċċija organizer at the time of the event. Especially since technological advancements have created new occupational trends, one may notice a diverse array of products representing trending jobs at different quċċijas. Continue reading our personalized, fun guide to Il- Quċċija to find out your baby's future.

The egg is a symbol of life. To pick an egg during il-Quċċija is to pick a life that's well-lived.

We've heard through the grapevine that actually cooking the egg post il-Quċċija is the only way to claim this blessing and in any case we'd kindly like ours cooked sunny-side up, please.
- Makeup – Makeup Artist
Was your child born with lipstick in one hand and a pocket-sized mirror in the other? Ours too! Your little angel was simply born to create. Using the human body as a medium for their artistry, they're likely to end up working in theatre, television, film, fashion or magazines. The world is their oyster! If you think your little one is too young to play with real makeup, you may still foster their creativity with our wooden Makeup Set made by the beautiful Danish children's brand 'By Astrup'. It's a lovely kit that includes 13 different pieces, such as wooden nail polishes, lipsticks, eye pencil, makeup brush, perfume, nail file, mascara, eyeshadow, rouge, day cream with pump and of course the all-important makeup bag. This gift will encourage important child play in the context of developing a child's social skills and may also help strengthen their fine motor control and coordination.

Junior was simply born to be banker! Good financial advice is rare to come by so if we were you we would cash in on your little one's wealth management tips ASAP. Having a fun, pretend play session with an educational goal is the reason why we've stocked up on our Play Money, designed and manufactured by 'MaMaMeMo' in Denmark. It's a fantastic way to make money-smart kids!
- Musical Instrument – Musician
The power of music is wondrous. If you've noticed that your child has a high beat sensitivity and flair for music, milk it for all its worth as it's a gift that should not go to waste! While science has proven that all babies naturally respond to the sound of music, the chosen ones are born with a strong sense of rhythm. Let the music begin with our Musical Instruments collection featuring a beautiful Grand Piano with 30 keys and a stool, cool Guitars to accompany children on their journey to become a singer-songwriter and of course, the money beat Drum Sets that will entertain your little sensory seekers for hours on end.

Any one thing that has successfully managed to defy gravity has always acted as a source of fascination and inspiration to children and adults alike.

Our vast range of kitchen accessories, such as the Cookware Play Set from the innovative Swedish children's brand 'Kid's Concept', will provide a delicious entry point for your child to unveil their junior chef within.
- Rosary Bead – Clergyperson
Malta is a predominantly Roman catholic country, making it highly probable that your Maltese grandparents or elderly are your go-to lenders of the rosary bead. Did you know? Picking a rosary bead is foreshadowing your child's future allegiance to God. Your little baby is an up-and-coming priest or nun and will most likely devote their life to God to form part of a clergy. This just may be your one-way ticket to heaven!
