Baby Of The Year competition is currently up and running on our website. We’re searching for two winners — the People’s Choice, as voted by you, and the OHbaby! Cover Star, who will grace the cover of an issue of OHbaby! Magazine! All entrants also go into the draw to win a Panasonic DMC-GM1 camera, worth $1099, and we have another of these cameras to award to the People’s Choice winner. Go to ohbaby. co.nz/ community/ ohbaby!-baby-of-the-year-2014 and upload an image of your precious one. They could soon be following in the footsteps of Elijah and Brooklyn! inspiring modern families

what’s new at ohbaby.co.nz? OHbaby!’s hottest birthday cake bakers We’d love to see your latest birthday cake creations, from lamington trains to the classic Dolly Vardon, or perhaps you’ve cooked up something more original? Upload your photos, recipes and step-by-step instructions and be in to win prizes from Nestlé and Queen. Go to ohbaby.co.nz/parties/ birthdaycakes for more details. Below: We love Sarah Pellett’s world map cake for her geography-mad son’s fifth birthday.
upcycling challenge We’re also looking for upcycling ingenuity — turned your change table into a gardening bench, perhaps? Or some drawers into a play table (as above, in issue 24). Show us what you’ve achieved, with images and step-by-step instructions, and be in to win prizes from Resene. Go to ohbaby.co.nz/lifestyle/interiors/ upcycling for more details.
