Brains, belly laughs, and bear hugs. Eyla is equal parts comedian, cuddlebug, and little genius. Our tiny narrator never runs out of tales.
We would like to thank you for supporting Eyla 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.
At just three years old, she’s already a paradox in pig tails. Fiercely independent but loves to curl up in a good cuddle. She doesn’t just walk, she dances, hops, twirls. She doesn’t just talk, she tells stories, about how cheetahs put their food on trees so lions don’t eat them. She is joy in motion. A storm of questions. A heart too big for her tiny frame. The world is better with her in it.
What are Eyla's favorite activities?Her favorite things to do are a blend of adventure, connection, and quiet comfort. She lights up at the zoo when she sees all her favorite animals. She loves the energy of her sisters’ softball game not just to watch, but to run barefoot in the grass and make a world of her own. At home she’s a backyard explorer turning leaves into treasures and puddles into playgrounds. She’s fearless in the water. Whether it’s the pool or the beach, swimming makes her heart happy.
How would $25,000 impact your family?Winning $25,000 would be a life changing investment into our daughter’s future. It would fund the activities she loves like swimming and nature exploration while supporting her sensory needs at home. Most importantly, it would ensure she has access to extracurricular opportunities well into her teen years, giving her the freedom to discover her passions and grow with confidence, joy, and support.
