Overall every participant was a winner, taking home the unforgettable experience and the lessons learned. It was not an easy road, but for what it’s worth; it was an adventure more than it was a competition. Everyone hopes that the next one will be as big, if not bigger, but that’s another story we can’t wait to hear.

Pinoy Times: How did the children feel before the competition?

The kids feel so excited because it’ll be the very first international competition that most of them will be joining, except for Allysha. They feel nervous at the same time determined to practice their talents and catwalk with the support and guidance of their family friends and most especially, their parents more and more. They were also in an awe when they saw how big and long the runway stage will be and how many countries that will be participating.

Pinoy Times: How did the children feel before the competition?

The kids was overwhelmed with excitement as they were participating in an international competition for the first time, save for Allysha. They felt edgy yet were determined to practice knowing their families have their back.

Pinoy Times: How would do they think would help in their in their character development?

I helped them in building their self-confidence further; taught them the value of sportsmanship, and also broaden their knowledge and learning which extends beyond modelling. The experienced opened their eyes to the diversity of cultures and traditions of different countries. The experience also allowed them to further refine their public speaking. Jerich, a four-year-old contestant was passionate in recounting his experience. Allysha who tends to be soft-spoken learned to assert herself in speaking publicly, she does so recently with clarity and an air of confidence.

Pinoy Times: What steps did they take to prepare for this competition?

Angeleanna Shymanski ‘s parents ordered her national costumes and evening gown from the Philippines. Gabe rented his from Eff Alagadan and his family while it was his uncle who designed his formal wear. Jerich’s national costume was sponsored by a Filipino designer and reknowned make-up artist, Varian Rodriguez. Jerich and his mom helped each other in picking his costumes and outfits. Derek and his dad organized and designed his national costume. Allysha’ s gowns were borrowed from friends and we just reused her gowns used from previous competitions. Her national costume was borrowed from Mildred Modar and it was modified by her mom. The kids’ independently developed there talents with their family and friends guiding them.The kids also practiced their catwalks on their with the supervision of Milton Salinas, a runway and pageant coach from the Philippines, the night before the Final competition.
