We have had so much fun with our annual Halloween photo contests that we couldn’t wait until October to do it again!

And so begins our First Valentine’s Day Photo Contest! The contest will be run on our Facebook page in the same way as our Halloween Photo Contests. Read the rules and instructions below!

Contest Theme: Love through a child’s eyes

Official contest entry pictures must be mailed to contact (at) burlingtonvtmomsblog (dot) com to be officially entered.

This policy is to make sure that those of you with private social media accounts or those of you without them are able to play.

How To Enter:

• Email your photos that reflect “Love through a child’s eyes” to contact (at) burlingtonvtmomsblog (dot) com by 9pm on Sunday, February 7th.
• Please only enter personal photographs that you own into the contest, no professional photographs will be accepted.
• We strongly encourage everyone to also post your photos on Instagram, Facebook, and/or Twitter using the following official tags:  #btvvalentinecontest2016, @bvtmoms , and @umallvt.
• All of the pictures received will be posted in an album on our Facebook page by 9am Tuesday, February 9th.  The picture that receives the most “likes” in our official entry album by Tuesday, February 16th (9pm) will win the first place prize.  Likewise, the pictures that receive the 2^nd and 3^rd most “likes” will win the 2^nd and 3^rd place prizes as well.  (details below)
• The winners will be announced on Wednesday, February 17th!

Official Rules:

• Pictures should be family friendly.  BVTMB reserves the rights to use discretion in which pictures are posted.
• Only submit pictures to which you have the legal rights (i.e. they are your children and it’s your photograph).  By sending the picture to BurlingtonVT Moms Blog, you are agreeing to have the image posted on social media.
• Each reader may submit only ONE (1) official entry.
• Pictures must be EMAILED to contact (at) burlingtonvtmomsblog (dot) com, not posted to our Facebook page.  BVTMB will not accept pictures posted to the page as official contest entries.
• When you email your photo, please be sure to include your name and a caption explaining your photo.
• Pictures must be liked in the album on our Facebook page, not on a picture that is shared.  So please be sure that you are clear with your friends and family when asking them to vote!  Only album image “likes” will be counted (this essentially means your friends and family have to navigate to the BVTMB Facebook page, scroll through the album and vote).

Winner’s Prizes:

• 1^st Place = $75 Gift Card to the store or restaurant of your choice at University Mall!
• 2^nd Place = $50 Gift Card to the store or restaurant of your choice at University Mall!
• 3^rd Place = $25 Gift Card to the store or restaurant of your choice at University Mall!

We can’t wait to see your photos representing Love Through A Child’s Eyes!
