General Criteria that the Parents' Choice Awards committees consider include excellent production values, universal human values, appeal to children, and age appropriateness.
The Parents' Choice Awards committees look for products that entertain and teach with flair, stimulate imagination and inspire creativity. Judges are interested in how a product helps a child grow in many ways: socially, intellectually, emotionally, ethically, and physically. Products must be free of racial or gender bias. Above all, products must not extol violence.
Please Note: Specific results of product evaluations will not be released.
Products submitted to the Parents' Choice Awards program will not be returned. Submission fees will not be refunded.
