My son Jackson is 2 and he likes to do pageants. He has been in then since he has been 12 mths old.I believe being on stage helps with his confidence and he loves the attention. Believe it or not but my husband has been at almost every pageant with us.I will let my son do as many pageants as he wants, and when he wants to quit,then we will just start football or what ever he enjoys doing.
