By Nancy Bennett


At current times, social media has been a permanent fixture in the lives of everybody. Men and women all ages and walks of life has an account in one or more social media websites. These websites are often their platform for sharing content that has been going around in their lives, such as big life events. This generally includes getting married, a long awaited promotion from work, or giving birth to their first offspring.

Recognizing this development in society, numerous companies have seized this as an opportunity to organize and hold contests for this purpose. For example, the Gerber Baby Contest has become an outlet for parents to share their love and appreciation for their babies. This article will be relaying the various rules to become one of their participants.

Gerber is an American owned company that was first established in 1927. Its first base is in Fremont, Michigan in the United States. However, it was only during the succeeding year that they began to create food products specially formulated for babies. Their products usually contain ingredients such as strained peas, vegetable soup, and carrots. As such, these products are safe and nutritious for babies to consume.

While this contest has been around for a while now, it is still being held every year. It does not have a specific date allocated for it, but the company usually announces it sometime during fall season. This gives contestants ample time to prepare and submit their best output.

Be aware though, that the company does not require you to pay a fee for joining the competition. If someone who says they are a representative of the company asks for a specific fee, it is best to report this person to the authorities. The competition is free of charge, and is open to people who are qualified for their requirements.

According to their official website, only people who are from Puerto Rico, United States, and Columbia are allowed to enter. It has other rules as well, which pertains to certain age limits and specifications. The smallest age for babies is a day old, and the oldest allowed to join is one that is four years of age. For parents, they have to be at least 18 years of age as well.

For the output, there is a need to follow some guidelines set by Gerber officials. The most important rule they have is the photo submission must be taken by you, and not by a paid photographer. Collages are not allowed, and the person submitting them must have full copyright ownership of it. Furthermore, the submission should be taken only thirty days before the day they have submitted it. When these rules are broken, the business has the right to disqualify you.

Men and women who would like to support their favorite baby are allowed to vote for them at least once. This increases the possibility of them being considered for the final round. However, when the time has come to decide on the grand winner, the right is reserved for their appointed judges.

Aside from receiving the title of the Gerber spokesbaby for a whole year, the grand prize winner is also entitles to a check that amounts to fifty thousand dollars. An extra amount of 15, 540 dollars is given to cover for the taxes acquired, and also an amount of 1, 500 dollars for the expenses in clothing. The clothing is worn by the baby for future promotional activities and photo shoots.
