He’s charming. He’s trending. Nico doesn’t light up rooms, he powers them. At 3, he’s a legend. Clearly, Toddler of the Year material.
We would like to thank you for supporting Nico 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.
Nico is a one-of-a-kind three-year-old with a personality that’s larger than life. He’s smart, curious, and always asking why. He’s bursting with joy, energy, and love—and he’s very silly. People can’t help but gravitate toward him, not just because he’s so darn cute, but because he’s the kind of kid who makes the world feel brighter. Most of all, he’s just a truly good kid.
What are Nico's favorite activities?Nico loves all sports—basketball, football, soccer, and especially baseball. He’s not out there scoring points (yet), but he’s always eager to join in, cheer, and learn from the big kids. He’s also fascinated by video games and can “pretend play” like no other—his imagination is wild and wonderful. Whether he’s lost in his own little toy world or making up stories on the fly, he’s always creating something fun. And at the end of the day, his favorite thing is just being with his family.
How would $25,000 impact your family?Winning $25,000 would be life-changing for our family. We’re in a really difficult place right now, emotionally and financially, and every day feels like a climb. But Nico is our light—he keeps us going, gives us purpose, and reminds us what joy looks like. This support would give us breathing room, help us get back on our feet, and most importantly, allow us to keep showing up strong for the little boy who gives us everything.
