My son, Ryan, should be Toddler of the Year because he lights up the room when he walks in - he makes you want to smile.

We're celebrating the power of play, creativity, and imagination through beloved brands families know and love.
Ryan Christopher Roche, 3.5, from Boston, is a bold, curious, and empathetic toddler who lights up every room. He loves music, hockey, superheroes, and dancing to movie soundtracks. As the youngest of 5, he tries to keep up with his older siblings—always with hugs, kisses, and the occasional swear! He’s outgoing, confident, and says “you see that?” when he’s proud. His joy is contagious, and his heart is just as big as his personality.
What are Ryan's favorite activities?Playing hockey, Listening to hockey goal songs, Pretending to be superheroes and Dancing to music from movies.
How would $25,000 impact your family?Winning $25,000 would be life-changing for our family. We would invest it in Ryan’s future—supporting his education, growth, and all the possibilities ahead. Whether it helps open doors to new learning opportunities, sparks a passion he hasn’t discovered yet, or simply allows him to dream bigger, this would give us the chance to set a strong foundation for everything Ryan is becoming.
