Parents Guide For Competing In Childrens Beauty Pageants

By Helene Malmsio


Beauty pageants are hard work. It may seem so easy when you look at how kids just treat the stage like it was some play area, but the behind the scene work is just hard. This is especially true with beauty pageants for little girls on the national level where there is a lot at stake like scholarships and other prizes. But no matter how hard a beauty competition is, it can be made easy if you just prepare for it.

As easy as it seems to join competitions like that, it's not. There are a lot of preparations involved in these shows and you cannot just rely on talent or in beauty. After all, there are plenty out there who are more beautiful and more talented. Your only hope is actually to project the overall package and hope that luck will be on your side. This is why preparation is important when joining beauty pageants for little girls. Like its adult counterpart, competition can be fierce so you need to stay ahead of your game. Here are some of the things that you should look into when joining pageants.

Talent: One of the segments in the competition that will factor a lot is their talent. When choosing a talent to showcase, make sure that it is something that your child is really good at. Don't be afraid to choose a different talent like sketching, gymnastics or anything that is not dancing, singing or acting.

A lot is riding on your child's personality and how they come across to the judges. How they talk and answer questions as well as how they behave on stage will factor a lot in their scores with the judges. Children who are funny, personable and precociously cute will earn higher marks just because they have managed to endear themselves to the judges.

Beauty: Of course, you cannot discount the fact that physical beauty is important in any beauty pageant for little girls. Although this is basically inherent in a person, you can enhance your children's physical appearance by getting them the right haircut and the right clothes. Another thing that you can do is to make sure they have the right hours of sleep as well as the right kind of diet

Improve the appearance: Although beauty is largely inherent, you can improve on appearance. You can get your kids new hairstyle. The cut of the hair will greatly enhance your child's features. Another thing that you can do is to check their teeth. A child's smile can factor a lot in her appearance.

The Couturier: This is the one who will dress your child. Although some pageants and talent shows have their own stylists who will provide the clothes for your child, some parents prefer to have their own designers who have their child's best interests at heart. Make sure though that you choose a designer that is really good. Parents often commit the mistake of choosing a designer that they like. This is good if the taste and aesthetics of the parents are good but what if they are not. They can choose designers who make atrocious gowns which, to them, are just divine. To balance things off, make sure that you get the opinion of people around you, especially those who have fashion sense and good grasp of aesthetics.

The Pageant Trainer: There are professionals whose sole work in life is to help beauty pageant contestants make it big. They will look at all aspects of the pageant, from the talent portion to the question and answer portion. They will give your child tips on how to answer questions and how to walk during the gown competition. These people are professionals and are already experienced with what goes on in beauty pageants, so listen to them. They will be able to help you immensely, especially when you are a first-time contestant.

Take lessons: Just because your kid can sing does not mean that they are great singers. To really rise on the top, she needs to have a voice like no other and she can achieve that by honing her skills and training. Take summer lessons on voice, acting, dancing or whichever skills she wants to develop. Doing this will not only enhance you child's chances but will also give her the confidence that she needs to make that great performance.

Because there are so many things that you have to prepare for if you want your child to make it big in the contest arena, parents often seek the partnership of some professional to help them make it a reality.

Usually, beauty pageants for little girls are held inside the school premises. This is one of the activities that teachers and even school owners prepare to inspire the whole school community. The ones that are usually asked to do this are the teachers because they work well with students.
