Mattia’s a curious, creative adventurer with a big heart—always dreaming up ideas, jumping, swimming, and loving every animal he meets!
Which terrific toddler will take home $25,000 and star in a national ad campaign? You decide!
We're celebrating the power of play, creativity, and imagination through beloved brands families know and love.
Mattia is a joyful, witty 3-year-old with Hispanic- Italian roots that shine through his vibrant personality. His days are filled with wide-eyed curiosity, endless “Why?” questions, and imaginative ideas that begin with “I have an idea!” With two languages in his world, he’s always asking us to translate, sparking dreams of planes, maps, and new places. His sparkly eyes and thoughtful soul turn every moment into an adventure filled with love, laughter, and wonder.
What are Mattia's favorite activities?Mattia thrives on movement and joy. He loves to dance to any rhythm he hears, run like the wind through parks, and splash endlessly—in pools, oceans, or puddles. He builds stories with his toys, creates car ramps, and molds worlds out of Play-Doh. He pretends he’s flying to Italy, Ecuador, or the moon, and loves to help cook and share meals (especially pasta!) Animals make him light up—especially his dog Pablo, his cuddly sidekick in every adventure.
How would $25,000 impact your family?Winning would mean the world to our growing family. We’re preparing to welcome Mattia’s baby sister, Valentina, this November, and this support would help us finish settling into our new home in Delray Beach. With Mom working full-time in public health and Dad building his freelance design career in our new community, it would help us save for college and create joyful, enriching memories. We’d be endlessly grateful for the chance to grow, dream, and thrive together.
