We have another excellent nomination and winner for the month of June! This young lady was noiminated by her Mom Jennifer! Read her beautiful entry here!

Jennifer Roscoe and her daughter Gwendolyn. Jennifer nominated Gwedolyn for Classic Kid of the Month with Toad Hall Toys.A very deserving nominee indeed! Gwendolyn wins a $50 gift certificate from Toad Hall Toys!.

Gwendolyn's always been a bit of a social misfit. This is particularly difficult at fourteen, but she pulls it off by approaching every situation with a disarmingly cheerful selflessness and delightfully sharp wit.


Every day she buses home from school and walks the three blocks to the daycare to collect her two-and-a-half-year-old sister, then comes home to start washing out the lunch kits and begin dinner prep. When I walk in the door, she invariably greets me with a big smile and some goofy story about something her sister said or did on the walk home; the toddler is happily playing nearby, the cutting board is armed and ready, my classical music is queued up, and the best darn sous-chef you could ask for is at my disposal. I honestly don't know how any household functions without a Gwendolyn.


She is unfailingly honest, hardworking, and sensitive beyond measure; she has the biggest heart I know, and gives of herself constantly and without need for reward. She loves baking (she makes a superb lemon meringue pie. From scratch. Including the pastry!), reading (averaging three to four books a week), video games (she's unlocked all the secrets in Zelda, whatever that means), and has just finished Grade Nine at the top of her class.


If ever there was a kid who deserved to be honoured (beyond her old mum gushing about her embarrassingly to her girlfriends), Gwen's it!

Gwendolyn says she's looking forward to going to Toad Hall Toys and getting lost for a couple a of hours. It's one of the family's favourite places!
