The cute kids who captured your hearts!
HERE they are... the kids who won the hearts of our readers in our search to find the Top Tots of 2008!
We asked our readers to vote for their favourites from the 885 entrants in the two age groups – under 2 and age 2-5. And thousands responded by voting to help us pick the winners. The votes flooded in by phone, text and on our website. Tony Allcock, editor of the Islington Gazette and Camden Gazette, said: “Once again our annual contest has proved ever so popular. “We'd like to thank all those involved – particularly the N1 Centre at the Angel, which hosted this year's competition, Robert Anthony Studios, who took all the pictures, and all those readers who took the trouble to vote. The competition has been a lot of fun and we've had so many cute kids – it's a great shame they couldn't all be winners.” The winner in each category will receive a 20x24 framed colour portrait of the child worth £175. The second PRIZE in each category is a 20x16 framed colour portrait of the child worth £140 and the THIRD PRIZE a 16x12 framed colour portrait of the child worth £100. In addition, each prizewinner will receive a cuddly toy and a trophy.
