Time to practise those smiles – our Cute Kids competition is back.

The contest sees pictures of youngsters published in the Kent Messenger before public voting opens to select the winner and runner-up.

From Tuesday, September 2, until Sunday, September 14, pictures of little ones will be taken at Tiny Town, in Sheldon Way, Larkfield.

Visit with your child from 10am to 1pm, or between 2pm and 4.30pm. The studios will be closed on Monday, September 8.

The photos are scheduled to be published in early October.

First prize is £250 plus a party for 10 at Tiny Town and a canvas portrait. Children placed second and third will win a canvas picture, plus membership passes.

The company offers a wide range of kids’ parties in one of the UK’s largest spaces, which features safe, soft play equipment.
