My kiddo has moved across the country and away from his friends, but he’s always trying his hardest to make new ones!
We would like to thank you for supporting Arthur in this year's competition. Your participation helps us support Toys for Tots in their mission to bring joy and hope to children during the holiday season.
We're celebrating the power of play, creativity, and imagination through beloved brands families know and love.
Arthur is silly and incredibly friendly. He loves meeting new people and animals! He wants to play with just about everyone who looks his way. He’s a jokester and aspiring artist; considered sweet by anyone we meet. Our son is incredibly energetic and constantly wants to learn hands-on. In his short life, he’s made friends all across the country and doesn’t lose his sparkle. Arthur’s always out to make you smile, and hopes to have his own fun along the way!
What are Arthur's favorite activities?His love of drawing has evolved into sculpting with playdoh and painting till he’s more colorful than the canvas. Since he was about 6 months old, he’s been driven by strong beats and smooth chords—and now, at a mere 2 years old—he’s attempting to learn guitar, drums, and synthesizer. Though he pretends to play trumpet and flute, so check back in next month and we may be onto the woodwinds section of our musical adventure!
How would $25,000 impact your family?Our biggest wish is to set our son up for success in life. Education is invaluable, and being able to afford classes that explore his interests, as well as ones that will teach him skills he’ll need as he gets older. We would be able to visit our cross-country family more—he’s only gotten to see his grandparents twice—we’d like that to change! Keeping a strong relationship with his far away family has been really difficult, and easing the cost even a little would make it so much more doable.
