Ready, set, crawl! The Shops at Montebello invites the area’s cutest babies to crawl their way to victory at its fourth-annual Diaper Derby on Saturday, March 4, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. in Center Court.

The Diaper Derby is a series of crawling races on a soft, sanitized surface, and is open to all babies less than 12 months old who are not yet walking. Family members and friends are invited to cheer on the babies in each of the three heats.

Parents will try to motivate their children across the finish line, coaxing them to cross the line first with everything from playing instruments to holding a child’s favorite toy or teddy bear, and encouraging them along the way

The top crawler from each race will compete for prizes in a final race. The fastest crawler receives a first place prize of a $500 gift card to Baby GAP and a complimentary Memories Collection from JCPenney Portraits, which includes two 8×10 photos, six 5×7 photos and eight wallet-sized photos. The second place racer wins a $250 gift card to Gymboree with three complimentary photos 10×13 sheets or smaller from JCPenney. Third place earns a $150 gift card to Children’s Place and three complimentary photos 10×13 sheets or smaller from JCPenney. All of the winners will receive a trophy as a fun memento of their little one’s victory and all registered participants will receive a diaper bag as a special gift from The Shops at Montebello on the day of the event.

“We look forward to our annual Diaper Derby every year,” said Marida Petitjean, director of marketing and business development. “It’s a fun opportunity for the community to come together, while spending time with friends and family at The Shops at Montebello.”

Registration and participation in the event is free. To register, families can visit The Shops at Montebello’s Guest Services booth, located on the lower level of the center near Macy’s Home. A maximum of 18 participants will be registered for the event.
