Julian doesn’t need a crown just give him a dinosaur hat and a few snacks, and he’s ready to rule the toddler world.
We would like to thank you for supporting Julian 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.
Julian is a bright light in every room he enters. Curious and full of questions, he’s always eager to understand how things work — whether it’s building a tower out of blocks or exploring bugs in the backyard. He has a kind heart, often the first to comfort a friend or share a toy without being asked. Julian’s sense of humor shines through his silly dances and quick-witted comments that catch adults off guard in the best way.
What are Julian's favorite activities?At just 2 years old, Julian already has a big love for some very big creatures — dinosaurs! Whether he’s stomping around the living room pretending to be a T. rex or carefully lining up his toy dinos in a perfect row, his fascination is clear. He loves roaring like a dinosaur, especially when someone roars back. You’ll often catch him flipping through his favorite dino books, pointing excitedly and naming the ones he knows — or making up names of his own.
How would $25,000 impact your family?This support would help relieve financial stress by catching up on essential expenses. As a single mom it’s really hard. It would allow me to begin saving for preschool and future educational needs, giving Julian the strong start he deserves. I would also be able to improve our home environment creating a safe, playful space where he can continue to explore, imagine, and stomp around like a T. rex. But more than anything, this gift would be a life change emotionally!
