JUST who is the cutest kid in south-east London and north Kent? We’re about to find out – with some help from you, our readers.
News Shopper’s Child of the Year competition visited three shopping centres during February.
Parents flocked with their children to The Walnuts in Orpington, The Orchards in Dartford and finally The Glades in Bromley for a free sitting with Nigel Barrett Photography.
Now the entries – all 670 of them – can be viewed on News Shopper’s website.
To help choose who wins the contest we want you to browse the pictures and cast votes for your favourites, the picture-perfect children whose lovable faces and sparkling smiles make them stand out from the crowd.
After voting closes on April 11 we will reveal the five children who have polled the most votes in each of two age categories, 0 to 18 months and 19 months to five years.
Nine of these 10 kids will win £100 for their parents to spend at Nigel Barrett’s photography studio in Bexleyheath.
We will then announce the one child who received the most votes out of all the entries.
This youngster will be the overall winner of the competition and will receive a £250 photography voucher, a framed portrait picture and a bundle of toys and games – plus the accolade of being News Shopper’s Child of the Year 2010.
