NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – Hasbro is teaming up with the Toys For Tots Program to find the cutest toddler in the country, and New Mexico’s own Esperanza is hoping she can get your vote.
She has reached the semi-finals round of the Toddler of the Year competition. The winner will get a $25,000 prize, and they’ll get to lead the Hollywood Christmas Parade.

But there’s one prize that Esperanza and her parents are looking forward to the most. “That’s one of the prizes, is like a national ad starring your kid. And I was like, ‘That sounds really fun,’” says Esperanza’s mother, Stefany. “It was one of my dreams as a kid to be in a toy commercial. Haha.”
Proceeds are also being raised for Toys For Tots. You can vote for Esperanza on the Toddler of the Year website…
