What to Do at Your First Pageant

Aug 7th 2014

Girls and parents who are getting ready for their first pageant are sure to feel the nervous butterflies of excitement. Pageants can be a lot of fun, but the anxiety associated with trying something new can be overwhelming. Knowing what to do at your first pageant helps you get over that nervousness to enjoy the event.

Buying little girls pageant dresses is the first step to a successful pageant experience, but what do you do after that? Here are some useful tips.

  • Toddler beauty pageants can be very competitive. Make sure you have several little girls pageant dresses in the latest styles to ensure that your child looks her best for every portion of the competition.
  • Your child will probably be very nervous about the experience, so it is important to highlight how fun it is going to be. Perhaps avoid talking about the competitive nature of the event to ensure that your child is excited to attend.
  • Bring toys and games to entertain your child while she is waiting to go on stage. There tends to be a lot of downtime during a pageant, and it will help ease your child from becoming antsy or impatient.
  • Try not to scold your child if she is acting silly on stage. Judges tend to prefer contestants who act naturally, but still use pageant etiquette.
