The best life insurance for your child may depend on your child's age, health and the insurance company's coverage and pricing available for your child.

Several insurers offer child life insurance plans. Some of the better known child life insurance carriers include Globe Life, Gerber, and Prudential, among others.

Since each life insurance company has their own set of pricing guidelines, and requirements for acceptance, as well as, their own specific financial strength rating, you may want to compare insurers before making a decision as to which insurer offers your child the best life insurance plan.

Remember, child life insurance can provide your children with guaranteed life insurance, guaranteed level rates, life insurance protection as an adult, grow cash value inside the policy over time, and allow your child to add additional life insurance coverage to the policy when he/she turns 18 or 21.
