Carson’s is not just a toddler, he is an experience. Every day I’m floored by his genius, chaos and comedy.
We would like to thank you for supporting Carson 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.
Carson is the kind of kid who stops you in your tracks not just because he spoke before he turned one, but because of how advanced he sounds. At just three years old, he throws around words like “probably,” “apparently,” and “disappointed” like a pro. He’s naturally funny without trying, full of wit and sharp comedic timing. Adults constantly find themselves laughing and amazed at how quick, expressive and self-aware he is for someone so young.
What are Carson's favorite activities?Carson doesn’t just play. He builds, creates and brings his imagination to life. Whether it’s art, puzzles or random toy pieces, he’s always creating something new. He’ll take things apart just to figure them out and somehow put them back even better. He’s deeply curious, loves daycare and genuinely enjoys learning. We’ve never given him an iPad and it shows. His imagination runs wild. He’ll play for hours, lost in his own world with little need for real toys. He’s also a budding golfer.
How would $25,000 impact your family?$25,000 would be life changing for our family. Both my partner and I work full time and honestly, this kind of support would give us the chance to get proper footing that would allow us to begin building a life that isn’t centered around constant work and juggling. It would allow us to pay off debts, start fresh and begin saving toward owning a home. Starting from zero debt would mean we could stop surviving and start living!
