The Children's Place 2012 Model Search {$25 Gift Card Giveaway}

While every mom thinks that their own child is the cutest kid out there, seeing them appear in print or online ads can really justify those thoughts. After all, they must be pretty darn adorable if a company thinks they'll help sell clothes, shoes, toys and more, right?

And it sure doesn't hurt when that apparel is already pretty stylish and charming all by itself. After all, when it comes to fashions from The Children's Place, these pieces can pretty much sell themselves!

However, even though The Children's Place is already known for high quality, stylish items at low prices (in-store or online) in everything from casual basics to comfortable dress wear, that doesn't mean that their wide selection of mix ‘n match styles don't look even better when worn by a grinning child. It's just easier for kids and parents to fall in love with the pieces when they see them that way!

So, if you have an aspiring and adorable young model in your family, now is the time to show him or her off to the world thanks to the launch of The Children's Place's second annual model search to discover its next superstar!

If your little star shines for the camera, now is the time to prove it! Through October 20th, 2012, simply submit a photo of your handsome little man or darling little girl, and he or she just might win a starring role in the upcoming photo shoot for The Children’s Place, as well as a $500 shopping spree.

It's just that easy! You can visit ChildrensPlace.com/modelsearch2012 or visit The Children's Place on Facebook to upload your photo and vote on your favorite little rising star. There will be a grand prize winner selected for each of the following categories:

• Newborn (boys and girls, 0-12 months)

• Baby Boy (1-4 years)

• Baby Girl (1-4 years)

• Boy (5-12 years)

• Girl (5-12 years)

Each grand prize winner, along with two designated guardians, will receive round-trip air transportation to the glam set of The Children’s Place photo shoot, as well as a $500 gift card to spend on all the latest styles.

As a bonus just for heading over to vote for your favorites, one entrant will be randomly selected each day to receive a $50 gift card to The Children's Place, and one lucky bonus sweeps winner will receive a $500 gift card at the end of the contest. What a great win!

What are you waiting for? If you have a child between 0 and 12, head over to The Children's Place and show off their ultimate cuteness to the world!

And, thanks to the generosity of The Children's Place, one person will be able to pick up a few of their favorite pieces of apparel for their little one as well, because...
