If you've decided your toddler girl is the cutest thing on earth, you may be considering entering her in a toddler beauty pageant. Toddlers make great pageant contestants, as they are generally unaware of the competitive nature of pageants and enjoy being around the other children. Dressing your toddler properly for a pageant and arranging her hair can take a bit of negotiating, but if you're willing to put in the work, a pageant can be a rewarding experience for both you and your child.

Instructions

        Find the right pageant for you. Directories of beauty pageants are available online through pageant sites such as Pageant Center.com. Ideally, you want a pageant located nearby, as traveling with a toddler can be difficult under the best of circumstances. A toddler tired out from a long car trip won't make for a happy contestant, so choose a pageant near your home for the first time out.

        Apply online through the pageant's website. Include all pertinent information, including phone numbers and mailing address plus your child's birthdate.

          Pick a category in which to enter your child. Categories include Director's Award, Miss Personality, Best Bio/Resume, Best Interview and Pageant Awareness. Children are also given awards for ticket sales as well. These are tickets you sell in advance to friends or relatives who may want to attend.       4
Choose your child's clothing according to category. Awards are given for children who present the best costume in a particular category. This includes 1950s wear, western wear, and even 1980s wear. Regional costume categories may also be available, such as Derby wear for pageants in Kentucky or Mardi Gras in the New Orleans area. Check the pageant's website for more information.        Pay the entry fees when you fill out your application. Rates vary with the prestige of the competition, so research the pageant you'd like to enter and pick one within your budget.

Amber is seven years old and loves Miley Cyrus. She sleeps with a poster of the actress above her bed and stores all her most treasured possessions in a glittery purple box emblazoned with the image of Hannah Montana. She also likes watching music videos on YouTube and making up dances to accompany the songs of JLS, her favourite boy-band. But, most of all, Amber likes to collect stones. "This is my red collection," she says, unzipping her pink rucksack and carefully lifting out a series of rust- coloured stones. She lays them in a line on the carpet and looks at them proudly.
To all intents and purposes, Amber is a confident little girl with an array of enthusiasms and interests. But it is hard not to notice as she talks that her eyelids are powdered with gold eyeshadow. Her hair has been styled with two sparkly hairclips and she is wearing a pale pink dress studded with fabric flowers. Later, she will show me a certificate she was given for taking part in the Mini Miss UK competition earlier this year. Because as well as being a normal seven-year-old, Amber is also an aspiring child beauty queen.
Did she enjoy entering the beauty pageant? Amber thinks for a second and then nods her head. Will she be entering any more? "Yes." She pauses, a touch uncertainly. "If Mummy told me to."
The child beauty pageant circuit in the UK has seen a recent explosion in popularity. Although such contests are commonplace in America, where they have spawned a multimillion-dollar industry, they are a relatively new import to this side of the Atlantic. But in a Britain increasingly enamoured with the instant fame of reality television stars and image-conscious glamour models, demand for child beauty contests has risen exponentially.
Five years ago, there were no mini beauty pageants in Britain. Today, more than 20 are held each year with thousands of girls (and sometimes even boys) taking part. Many of the contestants are as young as five and one pageant excludes anyone over the age of 12. A typical beauty pageant will consist of several rounds, often including an "evening wear" section, where children parade down a catwalk swathed in taffeta and Swarovski crystals, and a talent round, in which contestants will display a particular gift, such as singing, dancing or baton-twirling. For a successful child beauty queen the rewards can be lucrative – the winner of Junior Miss British Isles can expect to pocket £2,500 – but it takes a lot of work. Sasha Bennington, 13, one of the most successful child beauty queens on the UK circuit, undergoes a gruelling beauty routine to keep up appearances and insists on a spray tan every week, a new set of acrylic nails each month and regular bleaching of her white-blonde hair. Unsurprisingly, Bennington's idol is Katie Price.

To their critics, such beauty pageants are exploitative, pressurising children to adopt semi-sexualised adult mannerisms that they do not fully understand and enforcing the message that physical appearance is all-important. Claude Knights, the director of child protection charity Kidscape, says that pageants "give young girls the signal that it's OK to value yourself along a particular, superficial dimension. It's not about the whole person." Yet many in the pageant industry insist it is a harmless pastime that instils young girls with confidence and self-esteem.
"I personally see pageants as a positive thing, especially with the ladette culture that we have," says Katie Froud, the founder of Alba Model Information, the UK's only independent modelling advice service. "I'd rather these girls were concentrating on keeping themselves fit, eating healthily, having good deportment and putting their hard-won pocket money into an outfit for a pageant than spending it all on the lash, out on the street."
